Casey recently purchased a sedan and a pickup truck at about the same time for a new business. The value of the sedan S, in dollars, as a function of the number of years t after the purchase can be represented by the equation S(t)=24,400(0.82)t. The equation P(t)=35,900(0.71)t2 represents the value of the pickup truck P, in dollars, t years after the purchase. Analyze the functions S(t) and P(t) to interpret the parameters of each function, including the coefficient and the base. Then use the interpretations to make a comparison on how the value of the sedan and the value of the pickup truck change over time.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because many objects are not regularly shaped their volume cannot be determined using a volume formula. The volume of these objects can be found by water displacement. A volume of water sufficient to cover the object is placed in a graduated cylinder and the volume read. The object is added to the cylinder and the volume read again. The difference between the two volumes is the volume of the object. This method is demonstrated using the same battery used above.

Step-by-step explanation:

56.6

step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of the perimeters is equal to the scale.

the ratio of the areas is equal to the square of the scale.

34 / 20 = k

a / 19.6 = k²

substituting:

a / 19.6 = (34 / 20)²

a = 19.6 (34 / 20)²

a ≈ 56.6
