John bought a car for $8,000. After one year the car depreciates in value by 12%. After one year, what is the car worth?

Your answer will be 7,040.

HOW TO SOLVE: We start out with the car's value of 8,000. You see that the value of the vehicle is going to depreciate, or lower. It will depreciate by 12%, so we need to find 12% of 8,000.

This will you get you 960. All we need to do now is subtract 960 from 8,000, so you will be left with 7040.

step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x

step-by-step explanation:

last month maria hiked the 5-mile mountain trail a number of times and she hiked the 10-mile canal trail several times. let x represent the number of times she hiked the 5-mile trail, and let y represent the number of times she hiked the 10-mile trail. if she hiked a total of 90 miles, which equation can be used to find the number of times maria hiked each trail? x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x
