Please Help! Two cars with the same purchase price are not worth the same amount at the end of the year. Some cars depreciate faster than others. A truck depreciates at 45% and a Jeep depreciates at 25% per year. Assume the initial purchase price is $19,000 and the total cost of ownership is $38,000. Use a spreadsheet to determine how much more the Jeep is worth in three years.

$3800
$11,000
$10,400
$11,400

x =±sqrt(1/3)

step-by-step explanation:

x+4/6x=1/x

multiply each side by 6x to get rid of the fractions

6x*(x+4/6x)=1/x*6x

distribute

6x^2 +4 = 6

subtract 4 from each side

6x^2 +4-4 = 6-4

6x^2 =2

divide by 6

6x^2/6 = 2/6

x^2 = 1/3

take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) = ±sqrt(1/3)

x =±sqrt(1/3)

if x = 1, then the answer is 3.5

the correct answer is b. negative exponential growth.

step-by-step explanation:

you can tell it's an exponential function because it decreases rapidly then levels out and never touches the x-axis.

it is negative because the y-axis decreases as the x-axis increases.

therefore it is a negative exponential growth graph.

hope i !
