A car is purchased for $20, 000. Its value depreciates by 15% each year. Considering x equals the number of years, which equatio

n can be used to find the number of years it would take the car to be worth $12,000?
Answer options:
1. 20,000(x)^0.85 = 12,000
2. 20,000 - 15x = 12,000
3. 15x - 20,000 = 12,000
4. 20,000(0.85)^x = 12,000

Answer:

20,000(x)^0.85 = 12,000

Step-by-step explanation:cd

if it "depreciates" over time, you take the value that it depreciates by and divide the full value of the car by that and get ^0.85, then, once you find the quotiont, you multiply that by the number of years it takes until you reach the goal. I have explained how to solve this problem, even gave the answer, but, I did not give the number of years, good luck! ;)

Calculate (a) the number of milligrams of metoclopramide HCl in each milliliter of the prescription:
nalin [4]

Answer:

There are 100 milligrams of metoclopramide HCl in each milliliter of the prescription

Step-by-step explanation:

When the prescription says Purified water qs ad 100 mL means that if we were to make this, we should add the quantities given and then, fill it up with water until we have 100 mL of solution, being the key words qs ad, meaning sufficient quantity to get the amount of mixture given.

Then, knowing there is 10 grams of metoclopramide HCl per 100 mL of prescription, that means there is (1 gram = 1000 milligrams) 10000 milligrams of metoclopramide HCl per 100 mL of prescription. That is a concentration given in a mass/volume way.

Knowing the concentration, we can calculate it per mL instead of per 100 mL

Concentration_{metoclopramide HCL}= \frac{10000mg}{100mL} =100 \frac{mg}{mL}

9. A blueprint of a house plan uses a scale in
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

The length on the blueprint for an actual length of 65 feet is 16\frac{1}{4}\ inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Scale of the blueprint is \frac{1}{4}\ in=1\ foot

Length of one side of the house is 65 feet.

Now, as per given data;

1 foot in actual = \frac{1}{4}\ in on the blueprint.

Therefore, using unitary method, we can find find the length on the blueprint for an actual length of 65 feet by multiplying 65 and \frac{1}{4}. Therefore,

Length on the blueprint for 65 feet is given as:

=\frac{1}{4}\times 65\\\\=\frac{65}{4}\\\\=16\frac{1}{4}\ inches

Therefore, the length on the blueprint for an actual length of 65 feet is 16\frac{1}{4}\ inches

Find the unit rate. Twelve gallons of gas cost $22.68.
vredina [299]

To find the unit rate, all we need to do is divide $22.68 by 12

22.68 ÷ 12 = 1.89

Therefore, each gallon of gas costs $1.89

Hope this helps you
