Mr. McDonald just bought a farm tractor for $50,000. For tax purposes, its value is expected to depreciate at a rate of 16% annually. What will the tractor's value be in 4 years? Round to the
nearest hundredth (cent).

$24,893.40

Step-by-step explanation:

Year 1

50,000 x 0.16 =  8,000

50,000-8,000 = 42,000

Year 2

42,000 x 0.16 = 6,720

42,000-6,720 = 35,280

Year 3

35,280 x 0.16 = 5644.80

35,280-5644.80= 29,635.2

Year 4

29,635.2x0.16 = 4,741.6

29,635-4,741.6 = $24,893.40

0 and 5 minutes

step-by-step explanation:

given that one morning eight buses arrive late by the number of minutes given below:

0 8 2 6 9 2 0 7 8

write these in ascending order

0   0 2 6 7 8 8 9

in the afternoon two more buses arrive at the bus stop say by x and y minutes late.

total number of buses = 10

median = average of 4th and 5th after arranging in ascending order

since 4th entry is 6, the values of x and y should be below 6

also given 0 is the mode so either x or y or both should be 0 because then only 0 gets the maximum frequency and hence mode

thus we have

0 0 0 2 6 7 8 8 9 and another unknown entry which is below 6.

since median is 3.5, we have the unknown entry to be 5 only because then only median =( 2+5)/2

thus the after noon buses were late by 0 and 5 minutes.
