Solve.A school has just purchased new computer equipment for  The graph shows the depreciation of the equipment over 5 years. The point (0, 21,000) represents the purchase price and the point (5, 0) represents when the equipment will be replaced. Write a linear equation in slope-intercept form that relates the value of the equipment, y, to years after purchase x . Use the equation to predict the value of the equipment after 2 years.

A. y = 21,000x + 5;
value after 2 years is $12,600.00
B. y = - 4200x + 21,000;
value after 2 years is $12,600.00;
C. y = 4200x - 21,000;
value after 2 years is $12,600.00
D. y = - 21,000x + 21,000;
value after 2 years is $-21,000.00
