You bought a boat for $10,000. you have owned it for one year, and it is now worth $8,500. what is the percent decrease in your boat's value? clear check 10% 15% 75% 85%

15%

Step-by-step explanation:

You find it by taking 10,000 and subtracting 8,500 and get $1,500. Now take $1500 and divide by the actual amount 10,000 and get 15%

x =-.20752

step-by-step explanation:

4^(x+2)=12

4^(x+2)=12

take the log base 4 on each side

log 4 (4^(x+2) = log 4(12)

we know log b(a^y) = y log b (a)

(x+2) log 4(4) = log 4 (12)

x+2 = log 4 (12)

we know   logb c = loga c/loga b

we want to convert to base 10   so a = 10

by default, we do not write the 10   c = 4   and b = 10

log4 10 = log 12/log 4

log4 10 = log 12/ log 4

x+2 = log 12/ log 4

subtract 2 from each side

x +2 -2 = log 12/ log 4 -2

x = 1.79248125 -2

x =-.20752
