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! ;)

k0ka [10]

  • <em>I am assuming the picture is of a stained glass window in the shape of a semicircle</em>.

Answer: 7.71 feet.

Step-by-step explanation: <em>The formula for finding the circumference of a circle is \frac{1}{2} π × d + d.</em>

The diameter is 3 feet. Substitute this into the equation:

\frac{1}{2} π × 3 + 3.

Solve -

3.14 × 3 = 9.42

\frac{1}{2} of 9.42 = 4.71

4.71+3 = 7.71

Round -

The answer is already rounded.

Hope this helped!~

Total distance from w to z is -10 to 6 = 16

Add the ratios: 2 + 3 + 3 = 8

Divide distance by total ratio: 16/8 = 2

Multiply each ratio by 2 : 2x 2 = 4, 3 x 2 = 6, 3 x 2 = 6

WX is 4 units apart, add 4 to -10 to get x = -6

Answer: A. -6

Solve for b. 2/3 b + 5 = 20 - b
Arisa [49]

Answer:

b = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Add <em>b</em> on both sides (Addition Equality)

5/3b + 5 = 20

Step 2: Subtract 5 on both sides (Subtraction Equality)

5/3b = 15

Step 3: Divide both sides by 5/3 (Division Equality)

b = 9

Write the standard equation of the circle if the center is (-1,2), and a point on the circle is (2,6).
ladessa [460]

Answer:

  • (x + 1)² + (y - 2)² = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The center is given:</u>

  • (-1, 2)

<u>Find the radius, the distance from the center to a point (2, 6)</u>

  • r² = (2 - (-1))² + (6 - 2)² = 3² + 4² = 25
  • r = √25 = 5

<u>Use circle formula:</u>

  • (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²
  • (x - (-1))² + (y - 2)² = 5²
  • (x + 1)² + (y - 2)² = 25
