A $20,000 business computer depreciates at a rate of 15% per year. What equation would model the value of the computer?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]A = 20,000(0.85)^t[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the formula for compound interest here

where [tex]A = p( 1 + r)^t[/tex]

   A=future value  for any sum

   P=present value of the sum

   r= yearly interest rate, it should be expressed in  decimal

   t=time period , it should be in years

______________________________

given in the problem

p = $20,000

r = 15% (in decimal 15/100 = 0.15)

t is the time for which equation is to be model to find future value p

since, rate is for depreciation we need to take negative value of rate as value for computer will decrease

thus

r = -0.15

using the above values in formula  [tex]A = p( 1 + r)^t[/tex]

[tex]A = p( 1 + r)^t\\A = 20,000(1 - 0.15)^t\\A = 20,000(0.85)^t[/tex]

Thus, model  equation for the value of the computer is [tex]A = 20,000(0.85)^t[/tex]

(1−cos^2 x )·(1+tan^2 x)

Answers

Answer:

[tex](1-cos^2 x ).(1+tan^2 x) = tan^2x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex](1-cos^2 x ).(1+tan^2 x)[/tex]

Required

Solve

[tex](1-cos^2 x ).(1+tan^2 x)[/tex]

In trigonometry;

[tex]1 - cos^2x = sin^2x[/tex]

So, make substitution

[tex](1-cos^2 x ).(1+tan^2 x)[/tex] becomes

[tex](1-cos^2 x ).(1+tan^2 x) = (sin^2 x ).(1+tan^2 x)[/tex]

Also; in trigonometry:

[tex]1 + tan^2x = sec^2x[/tex]

Make another substitution

[tex](1-cos^2 x ).(1+tan^2 x) = (sin^2 x ).(sec^2 x)[/tex]

Recall that [tex]secx = \frac{1}{cosx}[/tex]

So;

[tex](1-cos^2 x ).(1+tan^2 x) = (sin^2 x ).(sec^2 x)[/tex] becomes

[tex](1-cos^2 x ).(1+tan^2 x) = (sin^2 x ).(\frac{1}{cos^2 x})[/tex]

[tex](1-cos^2 x ).(1+tan^2 x) = \frac{sin^2 x }{cos^2 x}[/tex]

[tex](1-cos^2 x ).(1+tan^2 x) = (\frac{sin x }{cosx})^2[/tex]

In trigonometry;

[tex]tan x = \frac{sin x}{cos x}[/tex]

[tex](1-cos^2 x ).(1+tan^2 x) = tan^2x[/tex]

Delaware was the first state to enter the Union and Hawaii was the 50th. If we order the positions of entry for the rest of the states, we find that State A entered the Union right after State B, and the product of their order-of-entry numbers is 132. Use the given information to complete each statement. State A was the th state to enter the Union. State B was the th state to enter the Union.

Answers

Answer:

State A was the 12th state to enter the Union. State B was the 11th state to enter the Union.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call x to the order-of-entry of State B, therefore the order-of-entry of State A is x+1. Given that he product of their order-of-entry numbers is 132:

x*(x+1) = 132

x² + x - 132 = 0

Using quadratic formula:

[tex]x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 -4(a)(c)}}{2(a)} [/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{1^2 -4(1)(-132)}}{2(1)} [/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{-1 \pm 23}{2} [/tex]

[tex]x_1 = \frac{-1 + 23}{2} [/tex]

[tex]x_1 = 11 [/tex]

[tex]x_2 = \frac{-1 - 23}{2} [/tex]

[tex]x_2 = -12[/tex]

The negative solution has no sense in the context of our problem, then the solution is x = 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the principal amount be a

We are given that John wants to invest in a simple interest savings account .The interest rate on this account is 0.7%.

Now to find simple interest in x years

Formula : [tex]Si = P \times T \times R[/tex]

Where P = Principal

T= time

R = rate of interest in decimals

So,[tex]SI=a \times 0.007 \times x[/tex]

Amount = Principal+Interest

Amount = [tex]a+a(0.007)x[/tex]

We are given that The account balance y can be modeled by the following linear equation y=150,000+150,000(0.007)x

(a) The perimeter of a rectangular parking lot is 332 m.
If the width of the parking lot is 75 m, what is its length?
Length of the parking lot:
m

Answers

the answer should be 91 because for your total perimeter you add all the sides. So you already have your length of 75 which counts as 2 sides and equals up to 150. after you subtract your two sides from your perimeter you get 182. you then divide 182 by 2 to get your two remaining sides which gives you 91.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of the rectangle = 332m

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(L+b)

Breadth = 75m

= 2 ( L + 75) = 332

2L + 150 = 332

2L = 332-150

L = 182/2

L= 91m

Use the interactive to graph a line with the given points: (–1,7) and (1,–1) The coordinates of the y-intercept of the line are.

Answers

Answer:

The y-intercept would be 6.25

Step-by-step explanation:

I found this by taking the two points and making it into a y = mx + b line.

Answer:

(0,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the slope-intercept form to find the y-intercept.

First, we need to find the slope of the line.

We are given the points (-1,7) and (1,-1).

[tex]m=\frac{rise}{run}=\frac{-1-7}{1+1}=\frac{-8}{2}=-4[/tex]

The slope is -4.

Slope-intercept is [tex]y=mx+b[/tex].

We can replace 'y' and 'x' with one of the points given, 'm' with the slope, and solve for 'b'. "B" would be the y-intercept.

I will use (-1,7):

[tex]7=-4(-1)+b\\\\7=4+b\\\\7-4=4-4+b\\\\\boxed{3=b}[/tex]

The line's equation is [tex]y=-4x+3[/tex].

Therefore, the y-intercept is '3'. The coordinates of the y-intercept is (0,3).

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!! i will give brainliest

Answers

Answer: Choice C

Yes they are independent because P(California) = 0.55 approximately and P(California | Brand B) = 0.55 approximately as well

===================================================

Explanation:

P(California) is notation that means "probability the person is from California". There are 150 people from California out of 275 total. Therefore, the probability is 150/275 = 0.5454 approximately which rounds to 0.55

Now if I told you "this person prefers brand B", then you would focus your attention solely on the brand B column. The other columns are ignored because you know they don't prefer anything else. With this narrower view, we see that 54 Californians prefer this brand out of 99 total. The probability becomes 54/99 = 0.5454 which rounds to 0.55. We get the same as before.

The notation P(California | Brand B) means "the probability they are from California given they prefer brand B". The vertical line is not the uppercase letter i or lowercase letter L. It is simply a vertical line. In probability notation that vertical line means "given".

We've shown that P(California | Brand B) = 0.55 approximately. The fact that they prefer brand B does not change the original probability. So the two events are independent. If liking brand B did change the probability, then the events would be dependent.

Find the probability that exactly 23 use their smartphone.

The problem is abive can be solved using the binomial probability function.

Binomial probability :

P(X = x) = [n! / x! (n-x)!] * P^x * (1 - P)^(n-x)
