Acertain car depreciates such that its value at the end of each year is p % less than its value at the end of the previous year. if that car was worth a dollars on december 31, 2010 and was worth b dollars on december 31, 2011, what was the car worth on december 31, 2013 in terms of a and b ?

b(b/a)^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the value of the car depreciates such that its value at the end of each year is p % less than its value at the end of the previous year and that car was worth a dollars on December 31, 2010 and was worth b dollars on December 31, 2011, then

b = a - (p% × a) = a(1-p%)

b/a = 1 - p%

p% = 1 - b/a = (a-b)/a

Let the worth of the car on December 31, 2012 be c

then

c = b - (b × p%) = b(1-p%)

Let the worth of the car on December 31, 2013 be d

then

d = c - (c × p%)

d = c(1-p%)

d = b(1-p%)(1-p%)

d = b(1-p%)^2

d = b(1- (a-b)/a)^2

d = b((a-a+b)/a)^2

d = b(b/a)^2 = b^3/a^2

The car's worth on December 31, 2013 =  b(b/a)^2 = b^3/a^2

b is 38 degrees.

a is 52 degrees.

this is because if b is 38 and a is 14 degrees more than b than 38+14=52 and 52+38=90 degrees. hope this .
