Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
f(A) = 30000 (1 - 0.2) - 2000(t)
f(A) = 30000(0.8) - 2000(t)
f(A) = 24000 - 2000(t)
0 = 24000 - 2000(t)
t = 12
f(B) = 25000(1 - 0.1) - 1500(t)
f(B) = 25000(0.9) - 1500(t)
f(B) = 22500 - 1500(t)
0 = 22500 - 1500(t)
t = 15
22500 - 1500(t) = 24000 - 2000(t)
500t = 1500
t = 3
22500 - 1500(3) = 18000
26) The y intercepts are the value of the new car when purchased.
The x intercepts are when the car value drops to zero due to depreciation.
The intersection occurs when their depreciated values are equal.
(The intersection does not occur properly on the graph because of camera image distortions)
