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
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
Answer:
A) d = 48t, d in miles, t in hours
B)d = 32t, d in miles, t in hours
C)y = 8 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
16 miles in 20 mins = 48 mph
16 miles in 30 mins = 32 mph
The boat speed is the average = (48 + 32)/2 = 40 mph
The current is the difference = 8 mph
2.16 x 10 to the power of -4
Answer:
y = 3/5 x+3
Step-by-step explanation:
two points on the graph
(-5,0) (0,3)
the y intercept is 3 (this is where it crosses the y axis)
the slope is
change in y 0 to 3 up 3
------------------ = -------------- = ------- = 3/5
change in x -5 to 0 right 5
we can tell the slope is positive because it goes from bottom left to top right
a negative slope goes from top left to bottom right
slope intercept form is
y=mx+b
y = 3/5 x+3
