Respuesta :

Given

Cost of boat = $ 8200

Depreciation rate per year = 14%

Time = 7 years

Find

cost of boat after 7 years

Explanation

cost of boat after 7 years =

[tex]A_0=A(1-r)^t[/tex]

so ,

[tex]\begin{gathered} A_0=8200(1-0.14)^7 \\ A_0=8200(0.86)^7 \\ A_0=2853.008192 \\ A_0=2853 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Final Answer

therefore, the equation is given by

[tex]8200(1-0.14)^7[/tex]

and answer = 2853
