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

Which of the following statements about a plane is not true?
DedPeter [7]

We have to identify the statement about the plane which is not true.

1. Consider the first statement,

" A plane can be thought of as flat". It is true as plane is a flat surface.

2. Consider the second statement,

"The surface of a plane is made up of points". It is true as plane is a flat surface which is made up of points.

3. Consider the third statement,

"A plane can be seen". It is not true as plane is a flat surface which can not be seen.

4. Consider the fourth statement,

"A plane extends infinitely in all directions". It is true as plane is a flat surface that extends infinitely along its edges.

The axis of symmetry for the function f(x) = −x2 − 10x + 16 is x = −5. What are the coordinates of the vertex of the graph? (−5,
Umnica [9.8K]
The x-coordinate of the axis os symmetry of a quadratic is the x-coorfinate of its vertex. To find the y-coordinate of the vertex here we would substitute -5 for x in:

f(x) =   - {x}^{2}  - 10x + 16 \\ so \: we \: have \:  \\ f( - 5) =  - ( { - 5)}^{2} - 10( - 5) + 16 \\  =  - 25 + 50 + 16 = 41
The coordinates of the vertex are (-5,41)

natita [175]

Answer:

Data is quantitative, data is categorical, data must be from a simple random sample, the data mut have normal distribution,

Step-by-step explanation:

When we make inference about one population proportion, we must ensure that the sample was taken randomly and observations follow a normal distribution. The sample size must be as large as possible with at least 10 counts of failures an 10 counts of successes. The  individual observations must be independent. They must be quantified and categorized.

12) -6n – 20 = -2n +4(1 – 3n)<br> What’s the first step
EastWind [94]

Answer:

n = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

-6n - 20 = -2n + 4 (1-3n)

First distribute the 4 (1-3n)

-6n - 20 = -2n + 4 - 12n

Combine like terms on the right side

-6n - 20 = -14n + 4

Get 'n' on one side by adding -6n to both sides

-20 = -8n + 4

Subtract 4 to both sides

-24 = -8n

Divide -8 to both sides

3 = n
