In a recent stock market downturn, the value of a $5,000 stock is decreasing at 2.3% per month. This situation can be modeled by the equation A(t) = 5,000(0.977)12t, where A(t) is the final amount and t is time in years. Assuming the trend continues, what is the equivalent annual devaluation rate of this stock (rounded to the nearest tenth of a percent) and what is it worth (rounded to the nearest ten dollars) after 1 year?

What is the first step in doing this?

old question but will attempt so this can be closed the wording is a little confusing but you would start by plugging t = 1 into the equation to find the value after 1 year, then calculate the percent decrease by dividing (final price - initial price) / (initial price) * 100%
