An equation for the depreciation of a car is given by y=A(1-r)t where y=current value of the car.A=original cost r=rate of depreciation and t=time in years. The value of a car is half what it originally cost. The rate of depreciation is 10%. Approximately how old is the car?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Approximately 6.58 years old

The more accurate value is 6.57881347896059, which you can round however you need. I picked two decimal places.

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

Explanation:

Let's pick a starting value of the car. It doesn't matter what the starting value, but it might help make the problem easier. Let's say A = 1000. Half of that is 1000/2 = 500.

So we want to find out how long it takes for the car's value to go from $1000 to $500 if it depreciates 10% per year.

The value of r is r = 0.10 as its the decimal form of 10%

t is the unknown number of years we want to solve for

---------------------------

y = A(1 - r)^t

500 = 1000(1 - 0.1)^t

500 = 1000(0.9)^t

1000(0.9)^t = 500

0.9^t = 500/1000

0.9^t = 0.5

log( 0.9^t ) = log( 0.5 )

t*log( 0.9 ) = log( 0.5 )

t = log( 0.5 )/log( 0.9 )

t = 6.57881347896059

Note the use of logs to help us isolate the exponent.

Use​ DeMoivre's Theorem to find the indicated power of the complex number. Write the answer in rectangular form.

2(cos20∘+isin20∘))3=__________

Answers

Answer:

After solving the power:

[tex]\bold{2(cos60^\circ+isin60^\circ)}[/tex]

Rectangular form:

[tex]\bold{1+i\sqrt3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the complex number:

[tex]2(cos20^\circ+isin20^\circ)^3[/tex]

To find:

The indicated power by using De Moivre's theorem.

The complex number in rectangular form.

Rectangular form of a complex number is given as [tex]a+ib[/tex] where a and b are real numbers.

Solution:

First of all, let us have a look at the De Moivre's theorem:

[tex](cos\theta+isin\theta )^n=cos(n\theta)+isin(n\theta )[/tex]

First of all, let us solve:

[tex](cos20^\circ+isin20^\circ)^3[/tex]

Let us apply the De Moivre's Theorem:

Here, n = 3

[tex](cos20^\circ+isin20^\circ)^3 = cos(3 \times 20)^\circ+isin(3 \times 20)^\circ\\\Rightarrow cos60^\circ+isin60^\circ[/tex]

Now, the given complex number becomes:

[tex]2(cos60^\circ+isin60^\circ)[/tex]

Let us put the values of [tex]cos60^\circ = \frac{1}{2}[/tex] and [tex]sin60^\circ = \frac{\sqrt3}{2}[/tex]

[tex]2(\dfrac{1}{2}+i\dfrac{\sqrt3}2)\\\Rightarrow (2 \times \dfrac{1}{2}+i\dfrac{\sqrt3}2\times 2)\\\Rightarrow \bold{1 +i\sqrt3 }[/tex]

So, the rectangular form of the given complex number is:

[tex]\bold{1+i\sqrt3}[/tex]

A collector as a set of 224 coins. Some are valued at 20 cents and others at 25 cents. If the collector has 74 25-cent coins, then what is the total value of the collection

Answers

Answer:

48.50 dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

The collector has a total of 224 coins but 74 of them are 25 cents coins. So, in order to find the number of 20-cent coins we're going to subtract the number of 25-cent coins from the total.

Number of 20-cent coins = 224 - 74 = 150.

Thus, the collector has 150 20-cent coins and 74 25-cent coins for a total of 224 coins.

Now, to know the total value of the collection we need to multiply the value of the coins by the number of coins there are of this value (we are going to do it with the 20-cent and the 25-cent coins) and then sum up our results.

Total value = 74(25) + 150 (20) = 1850 + 3000 = 4850 cents.

So the total value is 4850 cents, we know that each dollar has 100 cents so, to express this number in dollars we are going to divide it by 100 and thus we have that the total value of the collection is 48.50 dollars.

Lines that are parallel have the same slopes because they are increasing or decreasing at the same rate and therefore will never bump into each other.

We see that y=2 has a slope of 0 because there is no x that we can see in the equation. This is just a flat line.

If the line we are looking for is flat; it stays at the same y-value the entire time. We see that  the y-value for this line of ours is -6. Therefore, the answer is C. y=-6.

HELP PLEASE!! I have been working on this for about three hours!!

Answers

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the slope

m = ( y2-y1)/ ( x2-x1)

   = (60-64)/( 10-0)

   = -6/10

   = -2/5

The y intercept is (0,64)

The slope intercept form of the equation is

y = mx+b  where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = -2/5 x + 64  where y is in the thousands of feet

m = -2/5 * 1000 = -400 ft / minute

The height decreases since the sign is negative

The height decreases 400 ft per minute

The y intercept is (0,64)

64 is in the thousands of ft

64*1000 = 64,000 ft

When it starts, it is at 64,000 ft

B. This arc is to make sure that both L and N are equidistant from M.


C. This arc makes sure that the distance from L to N is the same as the distance from Y to Z.


D. This way there will be two arcs drawn on both angles when he is done.

Answers

Answer:

  your answer is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the purpose here, we'll call the missing point on the arc through Z point X.

Essentially, you want to make ΔXYZ ≅ ΔLMN by SSS. The construction so far ensures LM ≅ MN ≅ XY ≅ YZ. By copying the length LN to XZ, you ensure the congruence of the remaining sides of the triangles.

Then ∠XYZ ≅ ∠LMN because corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent.

In short, XZ needs to be the same distance as LN.

Techwiz electronics makes a profit of $35 for each mp3 and $18 for each DVD last week techwiz sold a combined total of 118 mp3 and DVD players. Let x be the number of mp3 sold last week write an expression for the combined total profit (in dollars) made last week

Answers

Answer:

The total   profit is [tex]p = 17x + 2124[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The profit made on each mp3 is  k  =  $35

    The profit made on each mp3 is  y =  $18

     The total amount sold is   n  =  118

 Now given that the amount of mp3 sold is x then the amount of  DVD sold is mathematically evaluated as

                      [tex]n - x[/tex]

Now the profit made on the x number of mp3 sold is  

                      [tex]x * 35 = 3x[/tex]

And the the profit made from the n-x number of  DVD  sold is  18 (n-x ) =  18 - 18x

 So the total profit made last week from the sales of both mp3 and DVD  is  

                   [tex]p = 35x + 18n - 18x[/tex]

                    [tex]p = 17x + 18(118)[/tex]

                    [tex]p = 17x + 2124[/tex]

Answer:

C  90-degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Using alternate interior angles, you can say m<CGD = 50 degrees.

From here, using the fact that line BE is a bisector of line CF, we know that the sum of degrees of the line BE would be 180 degrees.

So we can say m<EGD + m<CGD + m<BGC = 180.  Plug in our known values.

90 + 50 + m<BGC = 180

m<BGC = 40

And we can see that m<BGD = m<BGC + m<CGD

Thus, m<BGD = 40 + 50 = 90.

So the m<BGD = 90 degrees.

Answers

Answer:

(a) The experiment defined here is a random variable that includes the selecting of 3 people from the set of voter registration and driving records.

(b) The simple events in sample space, S = (M, M, M), (M, F, M), (M, M, F), (F, M, M), (F, M, F), (F, F, M), (M, F, F), and (F, F, F).

(c) If each person is just as likely to be a man as a woman, then the probability for each of the simple event can be assigned as [tex]0.5 \times 0.5 \times 0.5 = 0.125[/tex].

(d) The probability that only one of the three is a man is 0.375.

(e) The probability that all three are women is 0.125.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that three people are randomly selected from voter registration and driving records to report for jury duty. The gender of each person is noted by the county clerk.

(a) The experiment defined here is a random variable that includes the selecting of 3 people from the set of voter registration and driving records.

(b) As we know that the gender of each person is noted by the county clerk, which means one is male and another female.

So, the simple events in sample space, S = (M, M, M), (M, F, M), (M, M, F), (F, M, M), (F, M, F), (F, F, M), (M, F, F), and (F, F, F).

Here, M is denoted for male and F for female.

(c) If each person is just as likely to be a man as a woman, then the probability for each of the simple event can be assigned as [tex]0.5 \times 0.5 \times 0.5 = 0.125[/tex].

Because there is 50-50 chance of selecting males or females.

(d) The probability that only one of the three is a man is given by;

The total cases in the sample space = 8

Number of cases of only one man out of three = 3

So, the required probability =  [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] = 0.375.

(e) The probability that all three are women is given by;

The total cases in the sample space = 8

Number of cases of all three are women = 1

So, the required probability =  [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] = 0.125.
