Answer: D
On the first part, if it decreases by 17% each year, that means its value is 83% of what it was. You forgot to say that the car was bought 2 years ago.
Thus, the answer is D
For the second, just use the same logic to get 18000*0.75^4
The function that estimated the value of Jose's car after x years since buying the car is [tex]18000\times 0.83^x[/tex]
Important information:
Jose bought a new car 2 years ago for $18,000. The value of his car decreased exponentially by 17% and is now valued at about $12,400.
Function:
Since it is decreased by 17% so it is (100 - 0.17) = 83%
So, the equation should be [tex]18000\times 0.83^x[/tex]
