Answer:

The price was reduced by about 53%

Step-by-step explanation:

Per cent of change = (amount of change) ÷ (original amount)

% change = (799.99 - 375.99)/799.99

= 424 / 799

= .5300

= 53 %

The following function represents the value of a car, in dollars, after x years:
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

Option D.The decrease in the value of the car, which is 8%

Step-by-step explanation:

we have a exponential function of the form

f(x)=a(b)^{x}

where

y is the value of the car

x is the time in years

a is the initial value

b is the base

r is the rate of decrease

b=1+r

In this problem we have

a=$24,000 initial value of the car

b=0.92

so

0.92=1+r

r=0.92-1=-0.08=-8%-----> is negative because is a rate of decrease

I answered the question 3x-y=5 but is there a different way to answer this?
Svet_ta [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi,

I agree with what you did. You could also add y on both sides and get 3x = y + 5 and then divided by three to get...

x = 5 + y /3

(the 5 and y are being divided by 3)

But that's just complicated, it works, but it's complicated. What you did is correct and what I gave you is the value of x, but I'm 100 percent sure yours is correct.

Hope this helps
