On January 1, 2010, Lucita bought a car for $25,000. If the car depreciates at a rate of 15% per year, which equation can be used to find the value of the car on January 1, 2018?

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

After one year, in 2001, the price is $a_2$, where

$a_2= a_1-a_1\times (0.15)$

$\therefore a_2=a_1(1-0.15)=a_0(0.85)$

Now after two years, in 2002, let the price be $a_3$

The pattern is pretty clear. After $n$ years, in $200n$ the price will be:

$a_n= a_0(0.85)^{n-1}$

y - y1 = m(x- x1)

y - (-5) = 2/3(x -0)

y + 5 = 2/3x

y = 2/3x - 5

false

step-by-step explanation:

the reason i say this is because for a certain length of sides you can pick any two and the length is wither equal or greater than the third side and in this case it's not.

3 + 5 = 8

8 is smaller than 9 which is the third side.

hope this : )
