Answer to Problem 12MPS

5 years

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The value of a certain car decreases at a rate of 12% annually.

Calculation:

Let the worth of the car becomes half in time t .

Let the original worth of car = x

Apply the depreciation formula :

  A=P(1rt)

A = Final amount

P = Principle value(initial )

r = annual rate of depreciation in decimals

t = number of years

Here,

Since the value of car decreases annually at the rate of 12%

So, r = 0.12 , A = x2 , P = x

Substitute the values in the formula and solve for t :

  x2=x(10.12t)12=10.12t1=20.24t..............[multiply each side by 2]0.24t=21..............[subtract 1-0.24t]t=10.244.16

So, the number of years = 5 years
