100 POINTS f(x)=18,000(.88)^x ; x represents the number of years since the car started to depreciate and 18,000 = the initial value of the car. What year will you recieve the car when the car value drops below $2,000? Please do a step by step

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

We are looking for the value of x at f(x) < 2000

Solve the equation:

After 17 years and 3 months the car value drops below $2,000

y + 11 = (1/4)(x + 16)

step-by-step explanation:

step by step solution :

step   1   :

1.1     4 = 22

(4)3 = (22)3 = 26

equation at the end of step   1   :

  ((23) • 26)2

step   2   :

equation at the end of step   2   :

  (23 • 26)2

step   3   :

final result :

  218
