The graph below models the value of a $20,000 car t years after it was purchased.

Value of Car

A graph titled Value of Car has years on the x-axis and Dollars on the y-axis. A line curves down and goes through points (0, 20,000), (4, 10,000), and (14, 2,000).

Which statement best describes why the value of the car is a function of the number of years since it was purchased?
Each car value, y, is associated with exactly one time, t.
Each time, t, is associated with exactly one car value, y.
The rate at which the car decreases in value is not constant.
There is no time, t, at which the value of the car is 0.

Each time, t, is associated with exactly one car value, y.

Step-by-step explanation:

The concept being tested is functions.

The graph describe is a vertical parabola that opens downwards.

All vertical parabolas are functions because the pass the vertical line test.

In other words, each time, t, is associated with exactly one car value, y.

The correct answer is the second option.

all the angles opposite to the angle 150 would be 150 and all the angles that are next to 150 are 30 because they equal 180 it you add it up.

step-by-step explanation:

a.   we have two

lines:   y = 4-x   and  

y = 8-x^-1

given two simultaneous equations that are both to be

true, then the solution is the points where the lines cross. the intersection is

where the two equations are equal. therefore the solution that works for both

equations is when

4-x = 8-x^-1

this is where the two lines will cross and that is the

common point that satisfies both equations.

b.   4-x = 8-x^-1

  x           4-x       8-x^-1

-3           7        

8.33

-2           6         8.5

-1           5         9

  0           4        

-

  1           3        

7

  2           2        

7.5

  3           1         7.67

the table shows that none of the x values from -3 to 3 is

the solution because in no case does

4-x = 8-x^-1

to find the solution we need to rearrange the equation to

find for x:

4-x = 8-x^-1

multiply both sides with x:

4x-x^2 = 8x-1

x^2+4x-1=0

x= -4.236, 0.236

therefore there are two points that satisfies the

equation.

find y:  

x=-4.236

y = 4-x   = 4 – (-4.236)

= 8.236

y = 8-x^-1 =   .236)^-1

= 8.236

x=0.236

  y = 4-x   = 4 – (0.236) = 3.764

y = 8-x^-1 =   8-(0.236)^-1

= 3.764

thus the two lines cross at 2 points:

(-4.236, 8.236) & (0.236, 3.764)

c.   to solve

graphically the equation 4-x = 8-x^-1

we would graph both lines: y = 4-x   and   y

= 8-x^-1

the point on the graph where the lines cross is the

solution to the system of equations.

just graph the points on part b on a cartesian coordinate

system and extend the two lines.   the

solution is, as stated, the point where the two lines cross on the graph.
