32,000 where y is the value of the car in dollars, and x is the age of the car in years.
Use the trend line equation to predict the value of a car after 7 years.

Answer:

I think it's D.

Explanation:

So if the x is -1,700 and it stands for the years, then times it by 7. That would make -11,900. After you times it, add the 32,000 dollars and you would get $20,100. (I might have done the math wrong but I think this is the answer,)
