3 Answer all the questions. Section A (41 marks) 1 A man bought a new car. The value of the car depreciated with time so that its value, $,P after t months’ use is given by 175 000 , ktPe −= where k is a constant. (a) Find the value of the car, $,P when the man bought it. [1] The value of the car is expected to be $162 000 after eight months’ use. (b) Show that 0.01.k = [2] (c) Use the result from part (b) to determine the age of the car correct to the nearest month, when its value reached half of the original value when the man bought it. [2]
