Let the entire forest area = x

A % can always be found by dividing by 100

15/100 * x = 235       Multiply by 100

15x = 235                  Divide by 15

x = 235 / 15        

x = 1566.7                

The forest is 1566.7 acres which is about 2 sections. A section is about 640 acres. If you live in the country it is about 1 mile by 1 mile of land.

Answer: (3y - 5) • (2y - 3)

Step-by-step explanation:      6y2 - 10y - 9y - 15

2.1     Factoring  6y2-19y+15

The first term is,  6y2  its coefficient is  6 .

The middle term is,  -19y  its coefficient is  -19 .

The last term, "the constant", is  +15

A car was purchased for $25,000. Research shows that the car has an average yearly depreciation rate of 18.5%. Create a function
vitfil [10]

Answer:

V(t) = 25000 * (0.815)^t

The depreciation from year 3 to year 4 was $2503.71

Step-by-step explanation:

We can model V(t) as an exponencial function:

V(t) = Vo * (1+r)^t

Where Vo is the inicial value of the car, r is the depreciation rate and t is the amount of years.

We have that Vo = 25000, r = -18.5% = -0.185, so:

V(t) = 25000 * (1-0.185)^t

V(t) = 25000 * (0.815)^t

In year 3, we have:

V(3) = 25000 * (0.815)^3 = 13533.58

In year 4, we have:

V(4) = 25000 * (0.815)^4 = 11029.87

The depreciation from year 3 to year 4 was:

V(3) - V(4) = 13533.58 - 11029.87 = $2503.71

One end of a 4ft iron rod is attached to the center of a pulley with radius of 0.5 ft. The other end is attached at a 40 degree
mr_godi [17]
We use the formula
L = rθ
where s is the arc length or the length of the wire
r is the distance from the center to the end of the rod
θ is the angle made by the rod with the wall

Substituting the values and converting the angle to radian measure
L = 4 (40°) (π/180°)
L = 2.79 feet<span />
