Depreciation is the decrease or loss in value of an item due to age, wear, or market conditions. We usually consider depreciation on expensive items like cars or trucks. Businesses use depreciation as a loss when calculating their income and taxes. One company buys a new truck for $26750. The company depreciates the value of a truck linearly over its useful life of 15 years. Its salvage value at the end of 15 years is $2000.

Write an equation that models the value of the truck, V, in terms of the age t
Be sure to enter the entire equation.

The value of the truck after 6 years is $

Kylie explained that (-4x+9)^2 will result in a difference of squares because (-4x+9)^2 (-4x+9)^2 =(-4x)^2+(9)^2=16x^2+81

Maria donates a fixed amount, a, to a charity each month. if she donates $300 in 12 months, what is the equation for a? a. a + 300 = 12 b. a × 300 = 12 c. a × 12 = 300 d. a + 12 = 300 e. a + 32 = 100

Determine if the following statement is true or false. the normal curve is symmetric about its​ mean, mu. choose the best answer below. a. the statement is false. the normal curve is not symmetric about its​ mean, because the mean is the balancing point of the graph of the distribution. the median is the point where​ 50% of the area under the distribution is to the left and​ 50% to the right.​ therefore, the normal curve could only be symmetric about its​ median, not about its mean. b. the statement is true. the normal curve is a symmetric distribution with one​ peak, which means the​ mean, median, and mode are all equal.​ therefore, the normal curve is symmetric about the​ mean, mu. c. the statement is false. the mean is the balancing point for the graph of a​ distribution, and​ therefore, it is impossible for any distribution to be symmetric about the mean. d. the statement is true. the mean is the balancing point for the graph of a​ distribution, and​ therefore, all distributions are symmetric about the mean.
