Question

The Shannon family owns two properties. The first property is a house and the second property is a parcel of land. The following functions represent the value of both properties, in thousands of dollars, after x years.

house: f(x) = 215(1.075)^x
land: g(x) = 75(1.04)^x

Write function t that represents the total value, in thousands of dollars, of the Shannon family's two properties.

Answer 1

`215 (1.075) ^ {x} + 75 (1.04 )^(x) =`
Total value of both properties.

Hope this helps

Answer 2

The total value of the property (T) that Shannon's family own will be the sum of value of house and value of land.

So,

Total Value of Property = Value of House + Value of Land
T(x)=
`215(1.075)^(x) +75(1.04)^(x)`

The equation above gives the value of property of Shannon's Family in Thousands of dollars after x years.
