Acar cost $20,000 when it was purchased. the value of the car decreases by 8% each year. find the rate of decay each month and select the correct answer below. −0.006924% −0.006667% −0.7% −0.0081%

The rate of decay each month is -0.006924%

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of a car after 1 year at a 8% decreased

Decreased price = Sale price - (Sale price x porcentage of decreased/100%)

Decreased price = $20,000 - ($20,000 x 8%/100%)

Decreased price = $20,000 - ($20,000 x 0.08)

Decreased price = $20,000 - $1,600 = $18,400

So, the value of the car decreased by 8% in a year is $18,400.

The general equation for exponential decay is:

Where

y = final amount

C = Sale price

r = rate of decay

t = time

We know that the sale price was $20,000. After a year the decreased price is $18,400.

From the general equation for exponential decay, our sale price is $20,000 decreased over a time of 12 months resulting the final amount of $18,400.

substituting the values

Solving the equation for r

it happens during combustion and impacts the environment because the plants and trees take in that and it can cause them to die.
