If the initial price of the truck was $43,750 and it is depreciating at a rate of 13% every year, we can use the given equation to find the value of the truck after 5 years.
y = 43,750(.87)^x
Here, x represents the number of years, which in this case is 5.
y = 43,750(.87)^5
y = $19,365.77
Therefore, the price of the truck after 5 years would be approximately $19,365.77.
If using the modeled equation above what would my truck brand new at 43,750 and depreciates at 13% what would the price be after 5yrs?
