Exponential decay is given by the equation
F = P(1 - r)^t
0.5 = 1(1 - 0.092)^t
0.5 = (0.908)^t
log 0.5 = log (0.908)^t
log 0.5 = t * log 0.908
t = (log 0.5)/(log 0.908)
t = 7.18
Answer: 7.2 years
They are both labeled as 3 feet, so both must be equal, unless you doubt the labeling. Unless that is so, then both segments are equal.
Answer:
Part A: 7n + 30= -5 and 8n + 40= 16
Part B: 7(8) + 30= 86 and 8(8) + 40= 104
Part C: Company A saves you 12.
Step-by-step explanation:
Company A: 7n + 30
Company B: 8n + 40
7n + 30= -5 8n + 40= 16
7(8) +30= 86 8(8) +40= 104
7(2) + 30= 44 8(2) + 40= 56
56 - 44= 12
