Explain?? The equation, y = 12841(1.01)x , represents the average cost of an education at a private college, after 1990. What is the average cost in 1990 (x = 0)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is the equation actually this:\[12841(1.01)^x\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah i think so :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

In that case, then plug in 0 for x: \[y(0) = 12841(1.01)^0 = 12841\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's all?

OpenStudy (anonymous):
