Ms. Colunga bought a new car, which cost him $30,000. Which equation represents how long it will take for the value of the car to be 15,000 if the car depreciates at a rate of 18% per year

3.5 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for depreciation is as follows (I had to look it up too):

worth after time = initial worth * (rate)^t

In this case it depreciates which means that the rate is 1-0.18 = 0.82.

we know it will be worth 15,000,

So substituting would give us

now we we need to solve for t, so we will end up with

1/2 = 0.82^t

log (1/2) = t log(0.82)

t =

Therefore, t is roughly 3.5 years.

Great question, hope this helps.

step-by-step explanation:

one of the most important purposes of surface treatment is to alter surface properties according to the requirement of specific applications. for example, hydrophobic coating has been utilized on windshield and eyeglasses. gold atom monolayer on substrate has become a popular surface bioconjugation strategy.
