Belinda is thinking about buying a car for $38,000. The table below shows the projected value of two different cars for three years: Number of years 1 2 3
Car 1 (value in dollars) 32,000 26,000 20,000
Car 2 (value in dollars) 32,300 27,455 23,336.75

Part A: What type of function, linear or exponential, can be used to describe the value of each of the cars after a fixed number of years? Explain your answer. (2 points)

Part B: Write one function for each car to describe the value of the car f(x), in dollars, after x years. (4 points)

Part C: Belinda wants to purchase a car that would have the greatest value in five years. Will there be any significant difference in the value of either car after five years? Explain your answer, and show the value of each car after five

Paula makes stained-glass windows and sells them to boutique stores. if her costs total $12,000 per year plus $4 per window for the frame. how many windows must she produce to earn a profit of at least $48,000 in one year if she sells the windows for $28 each? 1. define a variable for the situation. 2. write an inequality that represents her profit. note: revenue is money coming in. cost is money going out. profit is the difference between the revenue and the cost. in other words: revenue - costs profit 3.using words, describe how many windows she must sell to have a profit of at least $48,000.
