The formula for depreciation is:

$y=x(1-r)^t$

Where x = Initial value,

y= Amount after depreciation.

r= Rate of depreciation,

t = time (in years)

According to given problem,

x = 1040, y= 944 and t = 12 months =1 year.

So, first step is to plug in these values in the above formula, So,

$944 = 1040(1-r)^1$

944 = 1040 (1 -r)

$\frac{944}{1040} =1-r$ Divide each sides by 1040.

0.907692308 =1 - r

0.907692308 - 1 = -r Subtract 1 from each sides.

-0.092307692 = -r

So, r = 0.09 or 9%.

Now plug in 0.09 in the above equation to get the depreciation equation. So,

$y = x (1- 0.09)^t$

So, $y = 0.91x^t$

b) To find the value of the bike after 5 months,

plug in t = 5 months= 5/12 = 0.41667 years in the above equation of depreciation.

So, $y= 1040 *(0.91)^{0.41667}$

y = 1040 * 0.961465659

y = 999.9242852

y = 1000 (Rounded to nearest integer).

Hence, the value of the bike after 5 months is $1000.
