Question

A car that initially cost 42,000 depreciates in value by approximately 2,000 dollars per year write an equation to represent the value in dollars, Y, of a car X years after it was purchased

Answer 1

`y=42,000 - 2000x`

Explanation:

The y is the total value of the car after everything that needs to be taken account of has been accounted to. You're finding the y and what the price is after x amount of years. The initial amount is 42,000 so whatever the cost of the car has depreciated would be subtracted from it. 2,000 dollars per year means what ever x is for year, let's say 5. The amount of money that the car has depreciated over the course of 5 years would be 5 multiply by 2,000. Hopes this help!

Answer 2

Answer:y=42000-2000x

Explanation:

Y is price so that’s be 42000 minus 2000 every year
