Straight-line depreciation is a method of calculating an asset’s value by subtracting its salvage value from its acquisition or purchase price divided by the estimated useful life of the asset. suppose a manufacturing robot cost $1.5 million in 2005 and is sold in 2010 for $50,000. what is the linear equation representing the value of the robot?

Linear equation is V(t) = 1500 - 290t

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the linear equation representing the value of the robot we will calculate per year depreciation in the cost of the robot.

Rate of depreciation =

                                 =

                                 =

                                 =

If depreciation is represented by V(t) (in $000) then equation will be

V(t) = 1500 - 290t

answer: (1,3) (3,-1) (5,-5) ?

step-by-step explanation:

answer: integers are just whole numbers: positive, negative, and zero.

i = {-∞, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ∞}

let x = 1st integer

let y = 2nd integer

x = 3y + 17   {equation 1}

xy = -24         {equation 2}

substitute 3y+17 in place of x n equation 2

and solve for y.

(3y+17)y = -24

3y2 + 17y = -24

3y2 + 17y + 24 = 0

from quadratic equation:

y = [-17±√(172-4(3)(24))]/(2(3))

y = (-17 ±√1)/6

y = (-17+1)/6   or     y = (-17-1)/6

y = -16/6           or     y = -18/6

y = -2 2/3         or   y = -3

since we are dealing with

y = -3

x = 3y+17 = -9+17 = 8

the integers are -3, 8
