The value of a snowboard decreases by 80% each year. If you purchased this snowboard today for $150, how much would it be worth 2 years later?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

150*80% (or .8) = 120 [1st year] * .8 = 96 [2nd year] so $96..?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6$?!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

After first year 150X.8=120 150-120=30 30x.8=6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

makes sense..I was just taking a stab at it. I could see yours being right though
