A car is bought at the price of $20,000. The value decreases at the rate of .20 every year (t). The exponential expression 20,000(0.80)t describes this situation. Find the price of the car after 3 years.
Question 11 options:

A)

$9,399

B)

$11,874

C)

$10,240

D)

$5,892

y = 20,000 (.80)^t

y = 20,000 (0.80)^3

0.8^3 = 0.512

0.512 x 20,000 = 10240

Your answer would be C. $10,240.

hi do you need an answer for your question?

step-by-step explanation:

hihi so drawing these 2 triangles is fairly simple. all that's left is finding the height of each one. luckily, we have a side length and an angle, so there is a trig function we can use to solve for the height. the easiest one to use would be tangent, since we have 2/3 things needed to find and the third needed is what we are solving for. tan(73°) * 30 ~= 98.13 and tan(73°) * 35 ~= 114.45
