Respuesta :

Hope this helped :)

Answer: Option 'C' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Amount at which she bought her car = $19980

Rate of depreciation = 13%

Number of years = 8 yrs

As we know the formula for "Compound Interest ":

[tex]A=P(1-\frac{r}{100})^n\\\\A=19980(1-\frac{13}{100})^8\\\\A=19980(1-0.13)^8\\\\A=6557.66\\\\A=\$6558[/tex]

Hence, the approximate value of the car will be $6558 in 8 years.

Hence, Option 'C' is correct.
