Maria bought a laptop computer for $850. The value of the computer depreciates about 25% each year. After 3 years, she decides to sell it to her younger brother. What is a fair price for the computer?

Answers

Answer 1

Using the depreciation formula:


start value x percent of value^time


850 x 0.75^3 = $358.59


answer: $358.59

Answer 2

Answer: $358.59

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]$$After one year the laptop computer's price is:$$\begin{aligned}&=\$ 850-\$ 850 \times 25 \% \\&=\$ 850-\$ 212.5 \\&=\$ 637.5\end{aligned}$$[/tex]

[tex]$$ Again two year the computer's price is:$$\begin{aligned}&=637.5-25 \% \text { of } 637.5 \\&=637.5-159.375 \\&=\$ 478.125\end{aligned}$$[/tex]

[tex]\bold{\text { So a fair price for the computer is } \$ 358.59}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned}\\\bold{Or}\text { Simply Calculate as } &=(\text { Purchase price }) \times(1-25 \%)^\text{time} \\&=850 \times(1-0.25)^{3} \\&=850 \times(0.75)^{3} \\\bold{&=\$358.59}\end{aligned}[/tex]

12x−3<−138

Answers

Answer:

x<-11.25

Step-by-step explanation:

you treat it like its 12x-3=-138, your goal is to isolate the x. first you subtract the 3 from both sides (12x<-135) and then divide both sides by 12 giving you 11.25 on one side and x on the other.

Answer:

x < -45/4 or it can be written as ( -infinity, -45/4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

12x - 3 < -138

12x < -135

x < -45/4

Lesson 4.03
Madame Dumas has a rather extensive art collection and the overall value of her collection has been
increasing each year. Three years ago, her collection was worth $250,000. Two years ago, the value of the
collection was $525,000 and last year, the collection was valued at $1,102,500.
Assume that the rate at which Madame Dumas's art collection's value increase remains the same as it has
been for the last three years. The value of the art collection can be represented by a geochetric sequence.
The value of the collection three years ago is considered the first term in the sequence.
A) Write an explicit rule which can be used to determine the value of her art collection n years after that.
B) Use this rule to determine the value of her collection 9 years after she started tracking its worth rounded
to the nearest dollar

Answers

Using a geometric sequence, it is found that:

a) The explicit formula is: [tex]a_n = 250000(2.1)^{n-1}[/tex].

b) The value of her collection 9 years after she started tracking is of $94,557,148.

What is a geometric sequence?

A geometric sequence is a sequence in which the result of the division of consecutive terms is always the same, called common ratio q.

The nth term of a geometric sequence is given by:

[tex]a_n = a_1q^{n-1}[/tex]

In which [tex]a_1[/tex] is the first term.

Item a:

Three years ago, her collection was worth $250,000, hence the first term is [tex]a_1 = 250000[/tex].

In two years, the collection was valued at $1,102,500, hence the common ratio is:

[tex]q^2 = \frac{1,102,500}{250,000}[/tex]

[tex]q^2 = 4.41[/tex]

[tex]q = \sqrt{4.41} = 2.1[/tex].

Hence, the explicit formula is:

[tex]a_n = 250000(2.1)^{n-1}[/tex]

Item b:

[tex]a_9 = 250000(2.1)^{9-1} = 94557148[/tex]

The value of her collection 9 years after she started tracking is of $94,557,148.

Pedro was working on a report on swiss and austrian psychiatrists. he decided to find a 90 percent confidence interval for the difference in mean age at the time of significant psychiatric discoveries for swiss versus austrian psychiatrists. he found the ages at the time of psychological discovery of all the members of both groups and found the 90 percent confidence interval based on a t-distribution using a calculator. the procedure he used is not appropriate in this context because


a

the sample sizes for the two groups are not equal.


b

the entire population is measured in both cases, so the actual difference in means can be computed and a confidence interval should not be used.


c

age at the time of psychological discovery occurs at different intervals in the two countries, so the distribution of ages cannot be the same.


d

age at the time of psychological discovery is likely to be skewed rather than bell shaped, so the assumptions for using this confidence interval formula are not valid.


e

age at the time of psychological discovery is likely to have a few large outliers, so the assumption for using this confidence interval formula is not valid

Answers

Answer:

B) the entire population is measured in both cases, so the actual difference in means can be computed and a confidence interval should not be used.

Step-by-step explanation:

Age at the time of psychological discovery is likely to be skewed rather than bell shaped, so the assumptions for using this confidence interval formula are not valid. Therefore, option D is the correct answer.

What is a confidence interval?

The confidence interval is the range of values that you expect your estimate to fall between a certain percentage of the time if you run your experiment again or re-sample the population in the same way.

A confidence interval is used to estimate an unknown population parameter, such as the mean, from a sample. It does this by providing a range of values within which the true population parameter is likely to lie. To use a confidence interval, the assumptions of the underlying distribution must be valid. In this case, the distribution of the ages of the Swiss and Austrian psychiatrists is likely to be skewed, meaning that it does not follow a bell shaped distribution. This makes the assumptions for using the confidence interval formula invalid and thus the procedure is not appropriate in this context.

Therefore, option D is the correct answer.

Gas mileage is the number of miles you can drive on a gallon of gasoline. A test of a new car results in 310 miles on 10 gallons of gas. How far could you drive on 70 gallons of gas? What is the car’s gas mileage?

Answers

Answer:

i) Gas mileage = 31 miles

ii) 2170 miles = 70 gallons

Step-by-step explanation (i):

310 miles on 10 gallons of gas.

⇒ 310 miles = 10 gallons

⇒ 310/10 miles = 10/10 gallons

31 miles = 1 gallon

Gas mileage = 31 miles

Step-by-step explanation (ii):

⇒ 31 miles = 1 gallon

⇒ 31 x 70 miles = 1 x 70 gallon

2170 miles = 70 gallons

i dont know what to do for tis

Answers

Answer:

is this by any chance about simultaneous equations? If so,

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 is telling us to decide on whether x and y should be the unknown. For instance, you want x to be the unknown, so u solve for x.

Step 2 is telling us to write equations with x and y.

For example,

7x + 5y = 12

7x - 2y = 9

This may not be accurate but it is an equation.

Step 4 is telling us to check whether the solution is accurate or not. For instance, we say 7 is x. so we substitude 7 into the original equation to see whether the answer we found is correct.

For step 5, im not really sure.
