Attached below is a step by step process of arriving at the answer.
Answer:
The function, f(x) to model the value of the van can be expressed as follows;

Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we have;
The amount at which Amrita bought the new delivery van, PV = $32,500
The annual rate of depreciation of the van, r = -12% per year
The Future Value, f(x), of the van after x years of ownership can be given according to the following formula

Therefore, the function, f(x) to model the value of the van after 'x' years of ownership can be expressed as follows;

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A
We will use the slope intercept form of the line and then convert later.
Equation
y = mx + b is the general form
Givens
Two data points
(4,180)
(9,325)
Solution
325 = 9x + b
<u>180 = 4x + b</u> Subtract
145 = 5x Divide by 5
145/5 = 5x/5 Do the division
29 = x This represents the cost / day
180 = 4x + b Substitute x = 29 to find b
180 = 4*29 + b Combine
180 = 116 + b Subtract 116 from both sides.
180 - 116 = b
64 = b
Solution for y = mx + b
y = 29x + 64
In Standard form this is
- 29x + y = 64 But the first number must be plus
29x - y = - 64 <<<< Answer A
Part B
y = 29x + 64
f(x) = 29x + 64
Part C
The graph is shown below. Various points are filled in using y = 29x + 64. The y intercept is (0,64) which is labeled. Let x = 1 , 2, 3, 4, ... 10 (which is arbitrary). This may be more easily done on a spreadsheet if you know how to use one to make graphs.
Step-by-step explanation:
18p is a multiplication expression in itself.
It could be written as 18 x p. I am confused on what you mean as 'verbal' so i'm gonna take a wild guess and say word form.
eighteen times p???
Sorry if it's wrong.
