the following function represents the value of a truck, in dollars, after x years:

f(x) = 29,000(0.88)x

what does 0.88 represent?

a. the decrease in the value of the truck, which is 12%

b. the present value of the truck

c. he value of the truck after x years

d. the decrease in the value of the truck, which is 88%

A.The decrease in the value of the truck which is 12%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a function

Where f(x) represents the value o a truck in dollars after x years.

We have to find that 0.88 what represents in the given function.

Substitute x=0 then we get

The value of  a truck initially=$29,000

The value of any object after x years is given by

Where a= Initial cost of object

r (in %)=Decrease in the value of object

x=Time ( in years)

When time spend the value of truck decreases.

By comparing the value then we get

Hence, the decrease in the value of the truck which is 12%.

Option A is true.

2y+y=5
