Answer:
The annual growth rate between 1985 and 2005 is 0.95%
The value of the house in the year 2010 is $152,018
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the annual growth rate = r
Value of the house in year 1985 = $120,000
Value of the house in year 2005 = $145,000
Time (t) = 2005 - 1985
= 20 years
A = P (1 + r)^t
145000 = 120000 (1 + r) ^20
(1 +r)^20 = 145000 / 120000
(1 +r)^20= 1.2083
(1 +r)^20= (1.2083)^1/20
(1 +r)^20= 1.0095
r = 1.0095 - 1
r = 0.0095
r% = 0.0095 x 100
= 0.95%
Value of the house in year 2010
=145000(1 + r)^5
=145000 (1 + 0.0095)^5
= 145000 x 1.0484
=$152,018
Answer:
Yes. any repeating decimal is rational.
<span>"A TV is on sale at 30% off for $420"
What was the original price of the TV?
</span>
Well if you start to calculate first off you are sooner or later going to figure out that in order for it to be 420 the answer has to be bigger than 1,000. If you get to 1,200 and calculate 30 percent off of it it the answer is 360 so a ballpark quesstiminate would be to go two more hundredths up. Therefore 30 percent of 1,400 is 420
