Question 779683: Suppose you buy a new car for $18,000. At the end of n years, the value of your car is given by the sequence vn = 18000(3/4)^n, n = 1, 2, 3, ….. Find the fifth term and explain what this value represents. Describe the nth term of the sequence in terms of the value of your car at the end of each year. Answer by oscargut(2103) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! vn = 18000(3/4)^n
v5 = 18000(3/4)^5
v5 = 4271.48 (the value of the car at the end of the 5th year)
