For which function does f decrease by 15% every time x increase by 1? A: f(x)= 0.15^x B: f(x)=8.5^x C: f(x)=15^x. D: f(x)=85^x

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]f(x) = (0.85)^x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential amount of decay:

The equation for an amount that decays exponentially has the following format:

[tex]A(x) = A(0)(1 - r)^x[/tex]

In which r is the decay rate, as a decimal.

Decrease by 15%

This means that [tex]r = 0.15[/tex]. So

[tex]f(x) = (1 - r)^x = (1 - 0.15)^x = (0.85)^x[/tex]

So

[tex]f(x) = (0.85)^x[/tex]

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph of a function should pass the vertical line test in order to be a function.

Option A

Fails as repeat x-values of 14 with different y-values

Option B

Fails as repeat x-values of 15 with different y-values

Option C

Fails as repeat x-values of 16 with different y-values

Option D

All x-values are different so this is a function

The rule is .

Every domain of the function should have an unique range i.e f(x)=y

#1

f(14) has two values hence not a function

#2

f(15) has two values hence not a function

#3

f(16) has two values hence not a function

Pairs of markings a set distance apart are made on highways so that police can detect drivers exceeding the speed limit. Over a fixed​ distance, the speed R varies inversely with the time T. In one particular pair of​ markings, R 58 is mph when T is 7 seconds. Find the speed of a car that travels the given distance in 9 seconds.

Answers

Answer: [tex]45.11\ mph[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Speed R varies inversely with time T i.e.

[tex]R\propto \dfrac{1}{T}\\\\R=\dfrac{C}{T}\quad [\text{C=constant}][/tex]

when R=58 mph, T=7 s i.e.

[tex]58=\dfrac{C}{7}\quad \ldots(i)[/tex]

when T=9 s

[tex]R=\dfrac{C}{7}\quad \ldots(ii)[/tex]

Divide (i) and (ii)

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{58}{R}=\dfrac{9}{7}\\\\\Rightarrow R=\dfrac{7}{9}\times 58\\\\\Rightarrow R=45.11\ mph[/tex]

Three salesmen work for the same company, selling the same product. And, although they are all paid on a weekly basis, each salesman earns his paycheck differently. Salesman A works strictly on commission. He earns $65 per sale, with a maximum weekly commission of $1,300. Salesman B earns a weekly base salary of $300, plus a commission of $40 per sale. There are no limits on the amount of commission he can earn. Salesman C does not earn any commission. His weekly salary is $900.

Verbally describe what each ordered pair in the first row of your table (when s = 0) means in terms of the situation. Use complete sentences in your answer.

Answers

Answer:

12 sales

Let x represent the number of sales each man had.

For Salesman A, he earns $65 per sale; this is 65x.

For Salesman B, he earns $40 per sale; this is 40x.  We also add to this his weekly salary of $300; this gives us 40x+300.

Since their pay was equal, set the two expressions equal:

65x = 40x+300

Subtract 40x from each side:

65x-40x = 40x+300-40x

25x = 300

Divide both sides by 25:

25x/25 = 300/25

x = 12

Linda invested $12,500 in an
account that earns 4.5% interest,
compounded monthly. What is
the value of the account after
4 years? Round your answer to
the nearest cent.

Answers

Answer:

12500

Step-by-step explanation:

4.5 × 48=216.

12500 Plus 216= 12,716

The value of the invested money becomes $103393.20 after 4 years if the interest rate is 4.5% and compounded annually.

What is compound interest?

It is defined as the interest on the principal value or deposit and the interest which is gained on the principal value in the previous year.

We can calculate the compound interest using the below formula:

[tex]\rm A = P(1+r)^t[/tex]

Where A = Final amount

          P = Principal amount

          r  = annual rate of interest

          t = How long the money is deposited or borrowed (in years)

We have in the question:

p = $12,500

r = 4.5% ⇒ 0.045

t = 4 years ⇒ 4×12 ⇒ 48 months

Put the above values in the formula, we get;

[tex]\rm A = 12500(1+0.045)^4^8[/tex]

A = 12500×8.27145

A = $103393.20

Thus, the value of the invested money becomes $103393.20 after 4 years if the interest rate is 4.5% and compounded annually.

A cylinder and a cone have the same volume. The cylinder has radius x and height y . The cone has radius 1/2x . Find the height of the cone in terms of y .

Answers

Answer:

height = 1/4y

Step-by-step explanation:

V(cylinder) = πr²h

V(cone) = πr²h ÷ 3

V(cyl) = πx²y

V(cone) = π(1/2x)²y which simplifies to be πx²y ÷ 4

πx²y = πx²y ÷ 4

if you divide each side by πx² you get:

y = y/4

height is 1/4y

An ice-cream store sold 70 sundaes. The ratio of
strawberry to chocolate sundaes was 3:4. How
many strawberry sundacs did they sell

Answers

Answer:

30 strawberry sundaes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know there is a total of 70 sundaes.

3 sundaes will be strawberry.

4 sundaes will be choclate.

When you add 3 and 4 together, you get 7. This is your total ratio.

So 3/7 of the sundaes are strawberry.

And 4/7 of sundaes are choclate.

We know there is a total of 70 sundaes.

The total ratio we figured out is 7.

If the total sundaes is 70, and the total ration is 7. Then the total sundaes is 10 times bigger than the ratio.

This means we need to multiply the 3 strawberry sundaes and 4 choclate sundaes by 10.

3*10=30

4*10=40

So there are 30 strawberry sundaes and 40 choclate sundaes.

We need to find the strawberry sundae amount, so the answer is 30.
