Question

a laptop computer is purchased for $1800. after each year the resale value decreases by 35%. what will the resale value be after 5 years? round to nearest dollar.

Answer 1

$209

Explanation:

1800-(1800*.35)=1170

1170-(1170*.35)=760.5

760.5-(760.5*.35)=494.325

494.325-(494.325*.35)=321.31125

321.31125-(321.31125*.35)=208.8523125

$209 after 5 years

Hope this helps

Answer 2

1800-35%=1170

1170-35%=760,5

760,5-35%=494,325

494,325-35%=321,31

311,31-35%=208,85

after round it is 209
