You are buying a used car which costs $12,000. you plan to sell the car after keeping it for 5 years. research shows that this car will lose value at a rate of 8% per year. how much will tbe car be worth after 5 years?

The car would be worth $7909 after 5 years.

Since the car will lose value at a rate of 8% per year this is an exponential decay. An exponential decay is in the form:

y = abˣ;

where y, x are variables, a is the initial value of y and b < 1

Let y represent the worth of the car after x years.

Since the car cost $12000, hence a = 12000, also the car will lose value at a rate of 8% per year. hence:

b = 100% - 8% = 0.92

Therefore:

y = 12000(0.92)ˣ

After 5 years:

y = 12000(0.92)⁵ = $7909

Therefore the car would be worth $7909 after 5 years.
