What is x?

It is the number of years since purchase. Can this be negative?

NO! Years cannot be negative. So we disregard negative x-axis.


What is y?

It is the value of the computer at that year. A computer starts off with a positive value (y axis) and depreciates to 0 after some years. Can this be negative?

NO! At 0 value, the computer is worth nothing! There is nothing known as <em>negative </em>value. So we disregard negative y-axis.


The graph that Beth will sketch will have to be in the 1st quadrant (positive x-axis & positive y-axis).

ANSWER: Quadrant I only
