Using an exponential function, it is found that the number 131.5 represents the initial value of the plane, in thousands of dollars.

<h3>Exponential function:</h3>

A decaying exponential function is modeled by:

A(t) = A(0)(1 - r)^t

In which:

  • A(0) is the initial value.
  • r is the decay rate, as a decimal.

In this problem, the function for the value of the airplane after t years is given by:

A(t) = 131.5(0.8)^t

Hence A(0) = 131.5, which means that the number 131.5 represents the initial value of the plane, in thousands of dollars.

Write the ratio in fractional notation in lowest terms. 28 inches to 42 inches
ivolga24 [154]

28 to 42 means 28/42

We now reduce 28/42 to lowest terms.

28 ÷ 7 = 4

42 ÷ 7 = 6

We now have 4/6.

We now reduce 4/6.

4 ÷ 2 = 2

6 ÷ 2 = 3

Final answer: 2/3

There are 24 cans of soda arranged in 4 rows of 6 cans each. Each can is a
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

23,040 cm^3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The case will be 6 * diameter of a can in length,

= 6* 8= 48 cm.

The width will be 4 * 8 = 32 cm.

The height = height of each can

= 15 cm.

So the volume of the case = 15*32*48

= 23,040 cm^3.
