Answer:

$21,626.625

Explanation:

I used the sum of a geometric series, then subtracted that amount from the original, this gave the total value depreciated, I then subtracted that from the original amount and there is the answer.

Answer:

8,880! Scroll down for step-by-step. :)

Explanation:

How much has the value decreased over 7 years? 9 x 7 = 63. 24,000 - 63% = 8,880!
