$1,200

The car worth started at $2,500

Four years would be $325 • 4
It’ll give you the answer of $1,300

You now need to subtract the $1,300 from the $2,500 and you’ll be left with $1,200

Answer:

$1200

Explanation:

Since the value of the car depreciates $325 a year.

After 4 years it would be 1300, becuase $325 × 4 = $1300.

So, $2500 - $1300 = $1200
