Using an exponential function, it is found that it takes 5.42 years for the car to halve in value.
<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>
A decaying exponential function is modeled by:

In which:
- A(0) is the initial value.
- r is the decay rate, as a decimal.
In this problem, the car depreciates 12% a year in value, hence r = 0.12 and the equation is given by:
.
It halves in value at t years, for which A(t) = 0.5A(0), hence:






t = 5.42.
It takes 5.42 years for the car to halve in value.

The angles will add up to 180 degrees.
3 boxes times 40 = 120 + 3 = 143
or 3 boxes times 43 = 129
