An exponential decay function is:
f=ir^t, f=final amount, i=initial amount, r=common ratio, t=number of times ratio is applied...We can see the initial value is 17000 so all we really have to find is the common ratio, or "rate" as some call it :P If we look at the second point, when t=1 we can see:
14280=17000r
r=357/425
r=0.84
So in five years the SUV will be worth more than the car by:
17000(0.84^5)-12000(0.89^5)
$408.73 (to the nearest cent)
5 Erasers, 4:1 is equal to 20:5, if you just multiply both numbers by 5
Answer:
The third picture
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x in both equations
2x<6
Divide both sides by 2:
x<3
3x+2>-4
Subtract 2 from both sides:
3x>-6
Divide both sides by 3:
x>-2
There is this trick you can use when x is on the left side of the equation to find out which way to shade in you graph. Keep in mind this is only for the left side, it will not work if your variable is on the right.
When the symbol is facing left < then shade left, imagine it is pointing which way to shade. x<3 is represented by the 3 picture on the left. When the symbol is facing right > then shade right, again it is pointing which way to shade. x>-2 is represented by the 3 picture on the right.
The circles are not filled in because the symbol is < and > rather than
. When it is greater than or equal to or less than and equal to (represented by the line under the symbol), then the circle is shaded in.
Scale : 1 inch = 30 miles
So, the ratio between the distance on the map and the real distance is 1:30
When a quantity increase/decrease in a ratio, the other one increase/decrease respectively.
Call the miles we have to go : x
1:30 = 4.5:x
(1x4.5):(30x4.5) = 4.5 : x
4.5 : 135 = 4.5 : x
So, x = 135 => We have to go 135 miles to get to the place we want to go.
The answer is, y = -1/3 - 3
