The price of products may increase due to inflation and decrease due to depreciation. Derek is studying the change in the price

of two products, A and B, over time. The price f(x), in dollars, of product A after x years is represented by the function below: f(x) = 12500(0.82)x Part A: Is the price of product A increasing or decreasing and by what percentage per year? Justify your answer. (5 points) Part B: The table below shows the price f(t), in dollars, of product B after t years: t (number of years) 1 2 3 4 f(t) (price in dollars) 5600 3136 1756.16 983.45 Which product recorded a greater percentage change in price over the previous year? Justify your answer. (5 points)

For product A, the product is increasing, for the bigger the number you plug into x (due to the fact that the numbers become bigger because of the time: year 1, year 2, etc)
Product A is 82% change rate, while 
product B is 983.45/4 = 245.8625,  1756.16/3 = <span>585.3867</span>
Product B is 245.8625/585.3867
product B is 42% change rate

Product A change rate is higher than Product B by 40%

hope this helps

A clock is showing the time as exactly 3:00 p.m. and 25 s. Because a full minute has not passed since 3:00, the hour hand is poi
Grace [21]
I had to read this a couple of times to see this was not about time, but is a right triangle problem. If the hour hand is at three, let us consider that a leg of a right triangle, we will consider the hypotenuse as the second hand.
Sketch the picture. 

The hypotenuse is 9 cm. the angle is found by: 

the (hour hand) is pointing directly at the 12. I expect you mean the minute hand. The angle between the minute hand and the second hand is 25/60*360 = 150 which make the angle between the hour hand and the second hand. 150 -90 =60 

so the second hand and the hour hand gives us a right triangle, with a 60 degree angle and a hyp. of 9 cm. 

cos 60 = x/9 

9 cos 60 =x

x = 4.5 cm

For the sequence an = 2n + 1, identify the values of a0 = _____, a1 = _____, a2 = _____, and a3 = _____.
Tresset [83]

Answer:

Option A -  a_0= 2,a_1= 3,a_2= 5,a_3= 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : For the sequence a_n= 2^n + 1

To find : Identify the values of following?

Solution :

The nth term of the sequence is a_n= 2^n + 1

Substitute n=0,1,2 and 3

When n=0,

a_0= 2^0+ 1

a_0= 1+1

a_0=2

When n=1,

a_1= 2^1+ 1

a_1= 2+1

a_1=3

When n=2,

a_2= 2^2+ 1

a_2=4+1

a_2=5

When n=3,

a_3= 2^3+ 1

a_3= 8+ 1

a_3= 9

Therefore, The value is a_0= 2,a_1= 3,a_2= 5,a_3= 9

So, Option A is correct.
