The value of a car is $21,500. It loses 12% of its value every year. Write an equation.

• 21500^x(1+.12)

• 21500(1+.12)^x

• 21500 + .12^x

• 21500(1-.12)^x

The value of a car is $21,500. It loses 12% of its value every year is represented by:

21,500(1 − 0.12)t = 21,500(0.88)t

What is the initial value

• 21500

• 0.12

• 0.88

• t

The value of a car is $21,500. It loses 12% of its value every year is represented by:

Suppose a culture of bacteria begins with 5000 cells and dies by 30% each year. Write an equation that represents this situation.

• y=5000(0.7)^x
• y=30(5000)^x
• y=5000(1.3)^x
• y=5000x^x
