Answer:
60.7420...
Step-by-step explanation:
An exponential decay function is:
f=ir^t, f=final amount, i=initial amount, r=common ratio, t=number of times ratio is applied...We can see the initial value is 17000 so all we really have to find is the common ratio, or "rate" as some call it :P If we look at the second point, when t=1 we can see:
14280=17000r
r=357/425
r=0.84
So in five years the SUV will be worth more than the car by:
17000(0.84^5)-12000(0.89^5)
$408.73 (to the nearest cent)
Answer:
b
Step-by-step explanation:
i took the test
The answer is: [A]: He did not apply the distributive property correctly for 4(1 + 3i) .
_____________________________________________
Explanation:
______________________
Note the distributive property of multiplication:
_____________________________
a*(b+c) = ab + ac.
____________________________
As such: 4*(1 + 3i) = (4*1) + (4*3i) = 4 + 12i ;
_____________________________________
Instead, Donte somehow incorrectly calculated:
_____________________________________
4*(1 + 3i) = (4*1) + 3i = 4 + 31; (and did the rest of the problem correctly);
Note: - (8 - 5i) = -8 + 5i (done correctly;
___________________________________
So if Donte did not apply the distributive property correctly for 4*(1+3i)—and incorrect got 4 + 3i (as mentioned above); but did the rest of the problem correctly, he would have got:
_____________________________
4+ 3i - 8 + 5i = -4 + 8i (the incorrect answer as stated in our original problem.
