Answer:

The computer loses 50%, percent of its value each year.

Explanation:

See the graph attached.

A computer is sold for a certain price and then its value changes exponentially over time.

It is clear from the graph that at t = 0, the price was $500, then at t = 1 year, the price was $250 and at t = 2 years, the price was $125 and at t= 3 years, the price was $62.5 and so on.

Therefore, the computer loses 50%, percent of its value each year. (Answer)
