Acar, originally valued at 70,000 in 2006 depreciates exponentially at a rate of 4% each year. round the expected value of the car in 2018 to the nearest dollar. round the expeated value of the car in 2018 to the nearest dollar

$42,890

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form for an exponential equation is

where a is the initial amount value and b is the growth rate or decay rate and t is the time in years.  Since we are dealing with money amounts AND this is a decay problem, we can rewrite accordingly:

where A(t) is the amount after the depreciation occurs, r is the interest rate in decimal form, and t is the time in years.  We know the initial amount (70,000) and the interest rate (.04), but we need to figure out what t is.  If the car was bought in 2006 and we want its value in 2018, a total o 12 years has gone by.  Therefore, our equation becomes:

or, after some simplification:

First rais .96 to the 12th power to get

A(t) = 70,000(.6127097573)

and then multiply.

A(t) = $42,890
