Absolute Value Functions Answers

The formula for determining the frequency, f, of a note on a piano is , where h is the number of half-steps from the A above middle C on the keyboard. A note is six half-steps away from the A above middle C. The frequency of the A above middle C is 440 Hz. How much greater is the frequency of the new note compared with the frequency of the A above middle C?

What is the solution to the equation

Devon purchased a new car valued at $16,000 that depreciated continuously at a rate of 35%. Its current value is $2,000. The equation represents the situation, where t is the age of the car in years and r is the rate of depreciation. About how old is Devon’s car? Use a calculator and round your answer to the nearest whole number.

An equation for the depreciation of a car is given by y = A(1 – r)t , where y = current value of the car, A = original cost, r = rate of depreciation, and t = time, in years. The value of a car is half what it originally cost. The rate of depreciation is 10%. Approximately how old is the car?
