Prakash bought a new car at the dealership for $27,000. It is estimated that the value of the car will decrease 7% each year.

Solution

Para resolver esta pregunta, sigamos los siguientes pasos:

  1. Identificar el valor inicial del coche: Prakash compró el coche por $27,000. Este es el valor inicial.

  2. Determinar la tasa de depreciación anual: Se estima que el valor del coche disminuirá un 7% cada año. Esto significa que cada año el coche retendrá el 93% de su valor del año anterior (100% - 7% = 93% = 0.93).

  3. Formar la función exponencial: La fórmula general para la depreciación exponencial es: v=v0(1r)t v = v_0 \cdot (1 - r)^t donde v0 v_0 es el valor inicial, r r es la tasa de depreciación, y t t es el tiempo en años.

  4. Sustituir los valores en la fórmula: v=27,000(0.93)t v = 27,000 \cdot (0.93)^t

Por lo tanto, la función exponencial que modela el valor v v del coche después de t t años es:

A. v=27,000(0.93)t v = 27,000(0.93)^t

Esta es la opción correcta.

Let’s do an example together that is an exponential decay model.ProblemThe cost of a new car is $32,000$32,000. It depreciates at a rate of 15%15% per year. This means that it loses 15%15% of its value each year.Draw a graph of the car’s value against time in years.Find the formula that gives the value of the car in terms of time.Find the value of the car when it is four years old. SolutionThis is an exponential decay function. Start by making a table of values. To fill in the values we start with when t=0𝑡=0. Then we multiply the value of the car by 85%85% for each passing year. (Since the car loses 15%15% of its value, it keeps 85%85% of its value. 100−15=85100−15=85.)
