SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME QUICK I ONLY HAVE 20 MINTUES TO ANSWER THIS AND ID BE SO GRATEFUL IF SOMEONE ANSWERED There are 30 homes in Neighborhood A. Each year, the number of homes increases by 20%. Just down the road, Neighborhood B has 45 homes. Each year, 3 new homes are built in Neighborhood B.
Part A: Write functions to represent the number of homes in Neighborhood A and Neighborhood B throughout the years. (4 points)
Part B: How many homes does Neighborhood A have after 5 years? How many does Neighborhood B have after the same number of years? (2 points)
Part C: After approximately how many years is the number of homes in Neighborhood A and Neighborhood B the same? Justify your answer mathematically. (4 points)
@Kash_TheSmartGuy can you help please?
Part A: \[f(x)=30*0.2x\]and\[f(x)=45+3x\] Part B: \[f(x)=30+0.2(5)\]\[f(x)=45+3(5)\]For Part B solve them. Part C: No idea. Ask someone else.
thank you! one last thing can you tell me how to solve part B?
@kash_thesmartguy
ill try part C
wow you're very helpful! haha
You get it, now? Just use formulas
@sparkles456
@Kash_TheSmartGuy yes because of mrskipped8thgrade
gj @MrSkipped8thGrade
thank you!!! @MrSkipped8thGrade & no just to justify your answer mathematically
which you did
20% of 30 is 6 (for neighborhood A) so every year adds 6 houses
wait i messed up a few times in there let me backtrack
1 A=36 B=48 2 A=42 B=51 3 A=48 B=54 4 A=54 B=57 5 A=60 B=60 Answer is actually 5 years exacly
ok
for part B neighborhood A has 60 as well as neighborhood B (after 5 years)
is that it?
for part A neighborhood A f(x)=30+6x neighborhood B f(x)=45+3x where x = number of years
the first one wouldn't be f(x) = 30 x 0.2x ?
plug in the formula for after 3 years
ok i did I'm going to submit now
f(x) = 30 x 0.2(3) f(x) = 30 x .6 f(x) = 18 this shows a decrease in houses. obviously not it.
thanks
no problem, anytime. :)
did you get it answered on time? or are you turning an assignment in late? or did you say you only had twenty mins to attract answers?
@sparkles456 ???????
