You buy a car for $25,000. It depreciates at the rate of 23% per year.
a. Write an exponential equation to model the value of the car.
What will the car be worth in 10 years?
round to nearest cent

Respuesta :

The worth of the car in 10 years is $1,831.67 using an exponential equation approach.

What is an exponential equation?

An exponential equation is the one with exponents such X^3(the 3 is the exponent)

The exponential equation required here is the one where the future value would be lower than current value because the car reduces in value year-in-year-out.

FV=PV*(1-r)^N

FV=future worth of the car

PV=today's value=$25,000

r=depreciation rate=-23%

N=number of years=10

The fact that r is negative means the car is depreciating not appreciating.

FV=$25,000*(1-23%)^10

FV=$1,831.67
