Answer:

To write a two-variable equation, I would first need to know how much Maya’s allowance was. Then, I would need the cost of playing the arcade game and of riding the Ferris wheel. I could let the equation be cost of playing the arcade games plus cost of riding the Ferris wheel equals the total allowance. My variables would represent the number of times Maya played the arcade game and the number of times she rode the Ferris wheel. With this equation I could solve for how many times she rode the Ferris wheel given the number of times she played the arcade game.

Determine whether 2x+2y= -6 is a function?

Archy [21]

Answer:

It's a function because when you simplify it becomes y=-x-3. the only reason it wouldn't be a function would be if the equation were to be x = a random number that is not a variable. The equation would not pass the vertical line test which is the requirement to see if an equation is a function.

Simply put, it's a function.

A new car is purchased for $17,000 and over time its value depreciates by one half every 3 years. What is the value of the car 1

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

The answer is "$238".

Step-by-step explanation:

Current worth $= \$ 17,000$

depreciates by $\frac{1}{2}$ in 3 years.

time= 19 years

depreciates rate=?

Using formula:

$\to \text{Worth= Current worth}(1- \frac{\text{depreciates rate}}{100})^{time}$

$\to A_t=A_0(1-\frac{r}{100})^t$

calculates depreciate value in 3 year $= \frac{1}{2} \times 17,000$

$= 8,500$

so,

$A_t=8,500\\\\A_0=17,000\\\\t=3\ years$

$\to A_t=A_0(1-\frac{r}{100})^t\\\\\to 8,500= 17,000(1-\frac{r}{100})^3\\\\\to \frac{8,500}{17,000}= (1-\frac{r}{100})^3\\\\\to \frac{1}{2}= (1-\frac{r}{100})^3\\\\\to (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{1}{3}}= (1-\frac{r}{100})\\\\\to 0.793700526 = (1-\frac{r}{100})\\\\\to \frac{r}{100} = (1-0.793700526)\\\\\to \frac{r}{100} = (1-0.8)\\\\\to r= 0.2 \times 100 \\\\\to r= 20 \%$

depreciates rate= 20%

$\to \text{Worth= Current worth}(1- \frac{\text{depreciates rate}}{100})^{time}$

$= \$ 17,000 (1- \frac{20}{100})^{19}\\\\= \$ 17,000 (1-0.2)^{19}\\\\= \$ 17,000 (0.8)^{19}\\\\= \$ 17,000 \times 0.014\\\\= \$ 238$

American car makers produce 5,650,000 cars each year. In a report, Ben wrote that Americans made 6,550,000 cars. What mistake di

iren2701 [21]

Ben has mixed up the digit for millions and hundred thousands: he wrote 5 in the place for millions and 6 in the place for hundred thousands, but it should be the other way. I think that he should exchange those two digits in the faulty report.

Consider the sequence: 11, 21, 31, …, … , … What is the nth term of this sequence ?

LuckyWell [14K]

I would say that the "n"th term of the sequence is 41, as the pattern increases by 10 every term.
