A new car sells for $25,000The value of the car decreases by 15% each yearWhat is the approximate value of the car 5 years after
1 answer:
Answer:
$6250
Step-by-step explanation:
The selling price of the new car is $25,000. The car's value decreases by 15% each year.
If we consider the decrease in value of the new car is 15% of the original value of the purchase of the car, then after 5 years the value of the car will decrease by (15 × 5) = 75%.
Therefore, the price will become (100 - 75) = 25%.
So, the value of the car after 5 years will be dollars. (Answer)

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
4/sin(80)
which is approximately 4.06
Discussion:
From the triangle, not drawn too accurately (see attachment)
sin(80) = side opposite /hypotenuse =>
sin (80) = 4/c => multiply both sides by "c"
c sin(80) = 4/c * c =>
c sin(80) = 4 => divide both sides by sin(80)
c = 4/sin(80)
and 4/sin(80) is approximately 4.06
Thank you,
