- Heart Disease In a certain country, the number of deaths due to heart disease decreased from 235 in one year to 221 in the next year. What percentage decrease in deaths due to heart disease does this represent?arrow_forwardDepreciation Once a new car is driven away from the dealer, it begins to lose value. Each year, a car loses 10% of its value. This means that each year the value of a car is 90% of the previous year’s value. If a new car was purchased for $20,000, the value at the end of the first year would be $20000(0.90) and the value of the car after the end of the second year would be $20000(0.90)2. Complete the table shown below. What will be the value of the car at the end of the eighth year? Simplify the expression, to show the value in dollars.arrow_forwardRunning Speed A man is running around a circular track that is 200 m in circumference. An observer uses a stopwatch to record the runners time at the end of each lap, obtaining the data in the following table. aWhat was the mans average speed rate between 68 s and 152 s? bWhat was the mans average speed between 263 s and 412 s? cCalculate the mans speed for each lap.

- Grade Point Average In many universities students are given grade points for each credit unit according to the following scale: A 4 points B 3 points C 2 points D 1 point F 0 point For example, a grade of A in a 3-unit course earns 43=12 grade points and a grade of B in a 5-unit course earns 35=15 grade points. A students grade point average GPA for these two courses is the total number of grade points earned divided by the number of units; in this case the GPA is (12+15)8=3.375. a Find a formula for the GPA of a student who earns a grade of A in a units of course work, B in b units, C in c units, D in d units and F in f units. b Find the GPA of a student who has earned a grade of A in two 3-unit courses, B in one 4-unit courses and C in three 3-unit courses.arrow_forwardBox Office Hits The table below shows the highest grossing movie of the given year.
