Answer:

$24,800

Step-by-step explanation:

If a car is worth 8% less after one year, then it is worth 92% of the original value.

original value = x

after 1 year: 0.92x

after 2 years: 0.92(0.92x)

after 3 years: 0.92(0.92(0.92x))

0.92³x = $19,311.46

x = $19,311.46/0.92³

x = $24,800

There are two fruit trees located at (3,0) and (–3, 0) in the backyard plan. Maurice wants to use these two fruit trees as the f
Mama L [17]
Maurice wants to create a set of elliptical flower beds. To do this, he first plots the location of the two fruit trees on his graph.

Maurice has to use the equation a^2-b^2=c^2. We know that c=3, and because we need 1 more number to solve for b, I made a=6. 6^2-b^2=3^2. 36-b^2=9. b^2=27. b=5.196

<span>Next, to create the equation, we substitute what we know into the equation x^2/a^2 + y^2/b^2=1 and get x^2/36 + y^2/27=1. Johanna wants to create some hyperbolic flower beds.

We already know that c=3 so this time I decided a=1. 3^2=1^2+b^2. 9=1+b^2. 8=b^2. b=2.828
 
Next, to create the equation, we substitute what we know to the equation x^2/a^2 - y^2/b^2 = 1. x^2/1^2 - y^2/2.828^2 = 1. </span>

Which point lies on the line with point-slope equation y - 3 = 4(x + 7)?
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

<h2><em>D. (-7, 3)</em></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of a point slope equation of a line is expressed as shown;

y-y₀ = m(x-x₀) where;

m is the slope of the line

(x₀, y₀) is the coordinate of the point that lies in the line.

Comparing the standard equation given with the equation in question

y - 3 = 4(x + 7) to get the point on the line we will have;

y₀  = 3 and -x₀ = 7

for -x₀ = 7;

multiply both sides with a minus sign

-(-x₀) = -7

x₀ = -7

<em>Hence the coordinate of the point required (x₀, y₀) is (-7, 3).</em>
