In order to sole the problem you need to create an equation to model what you are trying to do.
You end up with an equation looking like
25000*0.95^t
25000 is the starting value when t=0
95% is the amount remaining after the 5% decay
0.95 is being raised to the power of t to determine how many times it has decayed
When t=3 the equation should be
25000*0.95^3=21434.375
Answer:
Rounded to the nearest integer, the test had 18 problems in all.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a student missed 10 problems on an English test and received a grade of 44%, if all the problems were of equal value, to determine how many problems were on the test the following calculation must be performed:
100 - 44 = 56
56 = 10
100 = X
100 x 10/56 = X
1,000 / 56 = X
17.85 = X
Thus, rounded to the nearest integer, the test had 18 problems in all.
Your answer will be 60%
Have a nice day
Answer:
13 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The fare for the Uber
Cost= 5+ .5 m
where m is the number of miles
We spent 11.50
11.50 = 5 + .5 m
Subtract 5 from each side
11.5 -5 = 5+.5m -5
6.50 = .5 m
Divide by .5 on each side
6.5/.5 = .5m/.5
13 = m
We went 13 miles

because it's a linear function.
