The following function represents the value of a truck, in dollars, after x years:

f(x) = 29,000(0.88)x

What does 0.88 represent?

The decrease in the value of the truck, which is 12%
The present value of the truck
The value of the truck after x years
The decrease in the value of the truck, which is 88%

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The increase in the value of the truck, which is 88%

Step-by-step explanation:

Depreciation can be defined as the reduction of cost of a fixed asset systematically until the value of the asset becomes zero.

Rate of return can be defined as the percentage of interest or dividends earned on money that is invested.

In Financial accounting, a return refers to the amount of profit generated by an investor on an investment over a specific period of time.

Basically, the rate of return which is typically expressed as a percentage of the initial costs of an investment can either be a gain or a loss on an investment. Therefore, a positive rate of return on an investment over a specific period of time, simply means that an investor is making a profit (gains) while a negative rate of return on an investment over a specific period of time, indicates that the investor is running at a loss.

Given the following function;

f(x) = 29,000(0.88)x

Where;

x is the number of years.

We can deduce from the function, that the rate at which the truck is appreciating is 88% (0.88).

Assuming x = 3

f(3) = 29,000(0.88)*3

f(3) = $76,560

Answer 2

Answer:

The decrease in the value of the truck, which is 12%

Step-by-step explanation:

If the decrease in the value of the truck was 88%, then the percentage would be 0.12. So therefore, since 1.00 - 0.12 is 0.88, the decrease in the value of the truck would be 12%.

The points plotted below are on the graph of a polynomial. How many roots
of the polynomial lie between x = -4 and x = 3?
URGENT

Answers

Given:

The graph of a polynomial.

To find:

The number of roots of the polynomial lie between x = -4 and x = 3.

Solution:

From the given graph it is clear that the graph is a downward U-shaped curve. It means the given graph represents a quadratic polynomial.

The graph of the polynomial is below the x-axis immediate before x=-2 and above the x-axis immediate after x=-2. It means the graph intersect the x-axis at x=-2.

The graph of the polynomial is above the x-axis immediate before x=2 and below the x-axis immediate after x=2. It means the graph intersect the x-axis at x=2.

Since the graph of the polynomial divides the x-axis two times between x = -4 and x = 3, therefore the two roots of the polynomial lie between x = -4 and x = 3.

[tex]10x - 40 = 20[/tex]

[tex]10x - 40+ 40 = 20 + 40[/tex]

the mean of "n" numbers is "x" . if one more is added the mean is "y" . write an algebraic expression for the value of the number added?​

Answers

Answer:

yn +y -xn

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean= sum of numbers ÷number of numbers

x= sum of n numbers ÷n

Multiply both sides by n:

xn= sum of n numbers

sum of n numbers= xn -----(1)

Let the number added be a.

After a has been added,

y= (sum of n numbers +a) ÷(n+1)

Multiply both sides by (n +1):

y(n +1)= sum of n numbers +a

sum of n numbers= y(n +1) -a -----(2)

Substitute (1) into (2):

xn= y(n +1) -a

Expand:

xn= yn +y -a

a= yn +y -xn

Let's check!

Let the numbers be 1, 2, 3 and 4.

mean, x= 10 ÷4= 2.5

n= 4

Let the new number added, a, be 7.

a= 7

mean, y= 17 ÷5= 3.4

a= yn +y -xn

a= 3.4(4) +3.4 -2.5(4)

a= 7

Thus, the expression is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to calculate the area of a triangle is [tex]\frac{1}{2} bh[/tex], where [tex]b[/tex] represents the length of the triangle's base, and [tex]h[/tex] represents the length of the triangle's height. Since [tex]b[/tex] and [tex]h[/tex] are variables that have different values in regards to different triangles, that means you should substitute the known/given values of each variable into the formula and solve the equation.

What is the section of the line?

Let A (x₁, y₁) and B (x₂, y₂) be a line segment. Then the point P (x, y) divides the line segment in the ratio of m:n. Then we have

x = (mx₂ + nx₁) / (m + n)

y = (my₂ + ny₁) / (m + n)

The two endpoints are (-6, -2) and (8, -9). And m: n = 2: 5. Then the value of the x-coordinate is calculated as,

x = (2 · 8 + 5 · -6) / (2 + 5)

x = (16 - 30) / (7)

x = - 14 / 7

x = - 2

The x-coordinate of the point that divides the line segment will be -2. Then the correct option is B.

what is the mean,median,mode ,and range of 24,12,10,15,10,22,12

Answers

Answer:

24, 12, 10, 15, 10, 22, 12

mean:  7

median: 12

mode:  12

Range: 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: Mean=15, Median=12, Mode=10 and 12, Range=14

Step-by-step explanation:

Data:

Numbers: 10, 10, 12, 12, 15, 22, 24

Mean: x, Median: x, Mode: x, Range: x

Step One, Find the Mean by adding all of the numbers and dividing them by the number of numbers

10+10+12+12+15+22+24=105/7=15

Mean=15

Reason: By adding all of the numbers together and dividing them by the number of numbers, you can find the mean because that is the method on finding the mean.

Step Two, Find the Median(middle) by finding the number in the middle

10, 10, 12, 12, 15, 22, 24

Median=12

Reason: Since the median is the number in the middle, 12 would be the median since it is the number in the middle of the array of numbers.

Step Three, Find the mode by finding the number that show up the most

10, 10, 12, 12, 15, 22, 24

Mode=10 and 12

Reason: Since mode is finding the number that shows up the most, 10 and 12 would be the answer for that reason and that they show up the same number of times in the array of numbers.

Step Four, Find the range by subtracting the biggest number by the smallest

24-10=14

Reason: Since to find the range you have to subtract the biggest number(24) by the smallest(10) the answer has to be 14 because that us the answer to 24-10.
