The value of a new tractor decreases by 25% each year. The initial cost of a tractor is $40,000. Write a function (solved for "y") that can be used to project the value of the tractor t years in the future. Be sure to simplify the base number in parentheses and don't include any spaces in your answer!

Use the quadratic formula to solve the equation. if necessary, round to the nearest hundredth. x^2 - 23 = 10x a. -1.93, 11.93 b. 1.93, -11.93 c. 1.93, 11.93 d. -1.93, -11.93

Arectangular garden measures 5m by 7m. both dimensions are to be extended by the same amount so that the area of the garden is doubled. by how much should the dimensions increase, to the nearest tenth of a metre?

Three consecutive even numbers have a sum between 84 and 96. a. write an inequality to find the three numbers. let n represent the smallest even number. b. solve the inequality. a. 84 ≤ n + (n + 2) + (n + 4) ≤ 96 b. 78 ≤ n ≤ 90 a. 84 < n + (n + 2) + (n + 4) < 96 b. 26 < n < 30 a. 84 < n + (n + 1) + (n + 2) < 96 b. 27 < n < 31 a. n + (n + 2) + (n + 4) < –84 or n + (n + 2) + (n + 4) > 96 b. n < –30 or n > 31
