Answer:
The machinery ages three years for every $10,000 loss in value.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can see from the graph that each year, the machinery loses a value of $5,000 (Goes from $50,000 to $45,000 after year one, from $45,000 to $40,000 after year two etc). So we can discount the last two answers.
If it loses $5,000 each year, it loses $15,00 after ageing three years, and $25,00 after five years. Though neither of the first two answers correspond to this, the first answer is closest.
