Answer:

Option A. -$550 is the correct option.

Explanation:

In the given graph the value of the car over the period of years has been given.

We see that at year 1 cost of the car is $4900 and the cost at year 7 is $1600.

Over the period of 6 years change in value of the car = 4900-1600 = $3300

Therefore rate of change between 1 to 7 years = 3300/6 = -$550

So the average depreciation of the car value between 1 to 7 years will be $550.
