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

ok

step-by-step explanation:

$25

step-by-step explanation:

25 - 4.50 = 20.5

20.5 / 2 = 10.25

10.25 + 10 = 20.25

20.25 - 12.50 = 7.75

therefore the answer is $25 as shown as the first number.
