Jeff Bezos, who owns Amazon, has a net worth of approximately $143.1 billion (as of mid-2018). An employee in the Amazon distribution center earns about $13 an hour. The estimated lifespan of the employee is 71 years. If the employee worked 24 hours a day, every day of the year from the moment of his birth, how many lifespans would it take for him to earn wages equivalent to Jeff Bezos' net worth? Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Calculate earnings per lifespan: Earnings per lifespan = lifespan in years * Annual Earnings Earnings per lifespan = 71 * 13 * 24 * 365 <-- (24 hours per day * 365 days per year) Earnings per lifespan = 8,085,480 Calculate the number of lifespans needed to match Jeff Bezos earnings: Number of lifespans = Jeff Bezos Net Worth / Earnings Per Lifespan Number of lifespans = 143,100,000,000 / 8,085,480 Number of lifespans = [B]17,698.39 ~ 17,699[/B]

Penny bought a new car for $25,000. The value of the car has decreased in value at rate of 3% each year since. Let x = the number of years since 2010 and y = the value of the car. What will the value of the car be in 2020? Write the equation, using the variables above, that represents this situation and solve the problem, showing the calculation you did to get your solution. Round your answer to the nearest whole number. We have the equation y(x): y(x) = 25,000(0.97)^x <-- Since a 3 % decrease is the same as multiplying the starting value by 0.97 The problem asks for y(2020). So x = 2020 - 2010 = 10. y(10) = 25,000(0.97)^10 y(10) = 25,000(0.73742412689) y(10) = [B]18,435.60[/B]
