Ben buys a car for $50,000. the value of the car decreases at a rate of 4% per year. how much will the car be worth in 3 years?

The answer is 44,237.

Step-by-step explanation:

50000×0.96×0.96×0.96

=44236.8

when rounded to the nearest dollar it is 44,237.

the system of inequalities is

step-by-step explanation:

step 1

find the equation of the dashed line

we have the points

(0,0) and (3,1)

the line passes through the origin, so, is a direct variation

find the slope

the equation of the dashed line is

the solution of the inequality a s the shaded area above the dashed line

therefore

the equation of the inequality a is

step 2

find the equation of the solid line

we have the points

(4,0) and (0,4)

find the slope

the equation of the solid line is

the solution of the inequality b s the shaded area below the solid line

therefore

the equation of the inequality b is

step 3

the system of inequalities is

b
