Answers:
- a) 15000 represents the starting amount
- b) The decay rate is 16%, which means the car loses 16% of its value each year.
- c) x is the number of years
- d) f(x) is the value of the car after x years have gone by
========================================================
Explanation:
We have the function f(x) = 15000(0.84)^x. If we plug in x = 0, then we get,
f(x) = 15000(0.84)^x
f(0) = 15000(0.84)^0
f(0) = 15000(1)
f(0) = 15000
In the third step, I used the idea that any nonzero value to the power of 0 is always 1. The rule is x^0 = 1 for any nonzero x.
So that's how we get the initial value of the car. The car started off at $15,000.
-------------
The growth or decay rate depends entirely on the base of the exponential, which is 0.84; compare it to 1+r and we see that 1+r = 0.84 solves to r = -0.16 which converts to -16%. The negative indicates the value is going down each year. So we have 16% decay or the value is going down 16% per year.
------------
The value of x is the number of years. In the first section, x = 0 represented year 0 or the starting year. If x = 1, then one full year has passed by. For x = 2, we have two full years pass by, and so on.
------------
The value of f(x) is the value of the car after x years have gone by. We found that f(x) = 15000 when x = 0. In other words, at the start the car is worth $15,000. Plugging in other x values leads to other f(x) values. For example, if x = 2, then you should find that f(x) = 10584. This means the car is worth $10,584 after two years.
Hello there!
3x - y = 3
-x + y = 3
We need to solve 3x - y = 3 for y
Let start by adding -3x to both sides
3x - y = 3
3x - 3x - y = 3 - 3x
-y = 3 - 3x
We cannot leave the variable with a negative sign. We must multiply both sides by -1
-y * -1= (3 - 3x)-1
y = 3x - 3
Substitute 3x -3 for y in -x+y=3
-x + y = 3
-x + 3x - 3 = 3
2x - 3 = 3
2x = 3 + 3
2x = 6
x = 6/2
x = 3
Now substitute 3 for x in y=3x -3
y = 3x - 3
y = 3(3) - 3
y= 9 - 3
y= 6
Thus,
The answer is x=3 and y=6

Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to round to the nearest thousandth, you must observe the digit to the right of the digit in the thousandth place and then:
- If it is less than 5, you must round down.
- If it is greater than or equal than 5, you must round up.
In this case, given the number:
You can notice that the digit to the right of the digit in the thousandth place is 9.
Since 
, you must round up. Then:
Finally, to express this as a single-digit times a power of ten, move the decimal point three places to the right. Then you get:

Answer:
C. 8, 15, 17
E. 15, 20, 25
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to take the 2 smaller numbers as in 8 and 15 square it, so 8x8= 64 and 15x15= 225 and then add 64+225= 289 and 17x17=289 so 289=289 ✔
Again square 15 and 20, 15x15=225 and 20x20=400 add them 225+400=625
and 25x25=625 so 625=625 ✔
