Question

y=25,450(0.81)^t where (t) is the number of years since the truck was new. How much will the car be worth in 3?

Answer 1

13525

Explanation:

Given the equation :

y=25,450(0.81)^t

where (t) is the number of years since the truck was new ;

The value of y when t = 3 ;

Replace, t with 3 in the equation. And simplify

y=25,450(0.81)^3

Y = 25450 * 0.531441

y = 13525.17345

Worth after 3 years = 13525
