Answer
The function represents the car’s value after x years.
f(x) = 20,000(0.85)x
Reason
As given
Terrence buys a new car for $20,000.
The value of the car depreciates by 15% each year.
15 % is written in the decimal form
= 0.15
Thus
The decrease in the value of car is represented by = a (1 - r)× t
Where a is the original cost
r is the depreciates rate in decimal form
t is time in years.
Here a = $20000 ,r = 0.15 , t = x years
The value of car after x years = 20,000 (1 -0.15)x
= 20000(0.85)x
Therefore the the value of the car after x years is represented by f(x) = 20,000(0.85)x .

Answer:
34.5 square meters
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume you want to find the area of the shaded region. (The actual question is not visible here.)
The area of the triangle (including the rectangle) is given by the formula ...
A = 1/2bh
The figure shows the base of the triangle is 11 m, and the height is 1+5+3 = 9 m. So, the triangle area is ...
A = (1/2)(11 m)(9 m) = 49.5 m^2
The rectangle area is the product of its length and width:
A = LW
The figure shows the rectangle is 5 m high and 3 m wide, so its area is ...
A = (5 m)(3 m) = 15 m^2
The shaded area is the difference between the triangle area and the rectangle area:
shaded area = 49.5 m^2 - 15 m^2 = 34.5 m^2
The shaded region has an area of 34.5 square meters.

1.The isosceles triangle has sides of length 14, y, y
2. According to the "triangle inequality" :
y+y>14
2y>14
y>14/2=7
(y is greater than 7)
3. Remark, check the figures:
the side lengths cannot be less than (neither equal to 7), because we cannot get a triangle in that case, check picture 2
In picture 1 wee see that the side lengths can be as large as we want. We can erect an altitude, as high as we want. Pick a point on the altitude, and join it to the endpoints of the base, and we get an isosceles triangle with base equal to 14.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula that relates the length of a ladder, L, that leans against a wall with distance d from the base of the wall and the height h that the ladder reaches up the wall is L = StartRoot d squared + h squared EndRoot. What height on the wall will a 15-foot ladder reach if it is placed 3.5 feet from the base of a wall?
L = √d² + h²
