Question

Please help

You have just bought a new Sony 55” 3D television set for $2300. The TV’s value decreases at a rate of $250 per year. Construct a linear function to represent this situation. Clearly indicate what your variables represent.

Answer 1

2300 - 250x = y

Explanation:

y = the dollar value of the television

x = the amount of years since purchase of the television

For example, if one year has passed, the TV is now worth $3,250 according to the function as follows: 2300 - 250(1) = 3,250
