The equation is y=34000(1-0.06)ˣ.

It will take nearly 8 years for the car to lose enough value to be worth less than $21,000.

Using 21,000 for y, we have
21000=34000(1-0.06)ˣ
21000=34000(0.94)ˣ

Dividing both sides by 34000:
21000/34000 = 34000(0.94)ˣ/34000
(21/34) = 0.94ˣ

Using logarithms to solve this,
\log_{0.94}(\frac{21}{34})=x
\\x=7.79 \approx8
