Ben buys a car for $50,000. The value of the car decreases at a rate of 4% per year. How much will the car be worth in 3 years?

1 answer:

5 0

FOR THE FIRST YEAR
4/100×50000 = 2000
50,000 - 2000 = 48000
FOR THE SECOND YEAR
4/100 × 48000 = 1920
48000-1920 = 46080
FOR THE THIRD YEAR
4/100 × 46080 = 1843.2
46080-1843.2 = 44236.2

Given: ax-by>c

Subtract ax on both sides: -by>-ax+c

Divide both sides by -b: y<(-ax+c)/-b

Simplify: y<(ax-c)/b

your answer: y<(ax-c)/b

If my saving x$ grows 10% every year how much will I have in: 1 year 2 year 5 year

mote1985 [20]

Answer:

$1.1x, 1.21x, 1.61051x$

Step-by-step explanation:

If you saving grows $10 \%$ every year, then your saving is $1.1\\$ times your saving from last year. Therefore, after one year, you will have $1.1x\\$ , then after $2$ years, you will have $(1.1)^2 \cdot x=1.21x$ , then after $5$ years, you will have $(1.1)^5 \cdot x = 1.61051x$ .
