-5x - 8 = -18
-5x - 8 + 8 = -18 + 8
-5x = -10
-5x / (-5) = -10 / (-5)
x = 2

The value of a certain car decreases by 16% each year. What is the 1⁄2-life of the car?
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

The half life of the car is 3.98 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of the car after t years is given by the following equation:

V(t) = V(0)(1-r)^{t}

In which V(0) is the initial value and r is the constant decay rate, as a decimal.

The value of a certain car decreases by 16% each year.

This means that r = 0.16

So

V(t) = V(0)(1-r)^{t}

V(t) = V(0)(1-0.16)^{t}

V(t) = V(0)(0.84)^{t}

What is the 1⁄2-life of the car?

This is t for which V(t) = 0.5V(0). So

V(t) = V(0)(0.84)^{t}

0.5V(0) = V(0)(0.84)^{t}

(0.84)^{t} = 0.5

\log{(0.84)^{t}} = \log{0.5}

t\log{0.84} = \log{0.5}

t = \frac{\log{0.5}}{\log{0.84}}

t = 3.98

The half life of the car is 3.98 years.
