4 2 Peter buys a new car. After t months, its value $C is given by 120000 atCe −= , where a is a constant. (a) Find the value of the car when Peter bought it. [1] (b) The value of the car after 12 months is expected to be $90000. (i) Show that 0.02397a= , correct to 4 significant figures. [3] (ii) Calculate the age of the car, to the nearest month, when its expected value will be $70000. [2] (iii) After 5 years, a car dealer offers to pay Peter $29000 for your car. Based on the equation above, would you agree to sell it? Explain your answer.
