A new car is purchased for $25,000 $25,000 and over time its value depreciates by one half every 5 years. How long, to the nearest tenth of a year, would it take for the value of the car to be $5,000 $5,000?

Step-by-step explanation:

A new car is purchased for $25,000 over time its value depreciates by one half every 5 years. How long, to the nearest tenth of a year, would it take for the value of the car to be $5,000?

The formula now given as:

F = P(1 - r) ^t

F = Future value = $5000

P = Present value = $25000

r = Depreciation rate = 1/2 every 5 years

Hence:

5000 = 25000( 1 - ) ^t

plants store their excess carbohydrate in the form of starch so that it could be used as energy source later on. the excess carbohydrate is converted into starch in the plastid i.e. chloroplast & this process occurs in the presence of sunlight. it is an insoluble polymer of glucose which gets stored in cell organelles named as amyloplasts. in some plants, starch is also stored in roots and embryos.

you can't solve x because it is 2 linear equation and you only have one equation
