AaronÍs mother purchases a new computer for $1750. If she claims a linear depreciation (loss of value) on the computer at a rate of $250 per year, how long will it take for the value of the computer to be $0?
a.

7 years
b.

c.

d.

8 years

Respuesta :

B seven years because you have to subtract to find the answer
Linear depreciation is represented by the equation [tex]y-mx=0[/tex].

[tex]y=\$1,750 \\m=250 \\x=? \\ \\1,750=250x \\x= \frac{1,750}{250} \\x=7 [/tex] 

Therefore, 7 years.
