f(x)=18,000(1-0.012)^x ; x represents the number of years since the car started to depreciate and 18,000 = the initial value of the car. What year will you recieve the car when the car value drops below $2,000? Please do a step by step

Respuesta :

Answer:

Given

f(x)=18,000(.88)^x

We need to find the value of x when f(x) <2000

2000 = 18000(0.88)^x

0.88^x 2000/18000

0.88^x 1/9

• x = log (1/9) / log (0.88)

• x= 17 (rounded down)

After 17 years or during year 18 the car value will drop below $2000
