$\bf f(x)=3x^4+2x^3-5x^2-2x-4 \\\\\\ f(2)=3(2)^4+2(2)^3-5(2)^2-2(2)-4 \\\\\\ f(2)=48+16-20-4-4\implies f(2)=64-28\implies f(2)=36$

The value of a house decreases at a steady rate of 20% each year. What is the total percentage loss (to the nearest integer) in

Westkost [7]

Answer: The total percentage loss would be 67%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Rate of decline each year = 20%

Number of years = 5

We need to find the total percentage loss in value of the house at the end of 5 years.

So, Total percentage loss would be

$1-(1-\dfrac{r}{100})^5\\\\=1-(1-\dfrac{20}{100})^5\\\\=1-(\dfrac{4}{5})^5\\\\=1-(0.8)^5\\\\=0.67\\\\\approx 67%$

Hence, the total percentage loss would be 67%.

Which equation represents the circle described? (in picture)

Sedaia [141]

You are right. In circle equation we have =r² so the correct answer will be C od D. But we have to calculate the center of a circle.

$x^2+y^2-8x-6y+24=0\quad|-24\\\\(x^2-8x)+(y^2-6y)=-24$

Complete the square:

$x^2-8x+a^2\implies a=\dfrac{8x}{2x}=4\implies x^2-8x+4^2\\\\\\y^2-6y+b^2\implies b=\dfrac{6y}{2y}=3\implies y^2-6y+3^2$

And we have:

$(x^2-8x)+(y^2-6y)=-24\\\\(x^2-8x+4^2)-4^2+(y^2-6y+3^2)-3^2=-24\\\\
(x-4)^2+(y-3)^2-16-9=-24\\\\(x-4)^2+(y-3)^2-25=-24\quad|+25\\\\\boxed{(x-4)^2+(y-3)^2=1}$

So the answer is C (the same left side of equation).
