Solve the problem.The value y of a machine (in dollars) is known to depreciate linearly with time x (measured in years from the time it was bought new). Suppose that y is related to x by the equation
(a) Sketch the graph of this linear equation for 0 ? x ? 10.(b) What is the value of the machine when it is 5 years old?(c) What is the economic interpretation of the y-intercept of the graph?(d) When will the value of the machine reach the scrap value of $400??
What will be an ideal response?
(a)
(b) $1000
(c) the value of the machine when it is new
(d) 8 years

Provide an appropriate response.(a) Show that dx =
e-4 < 0.0092 and hence that
dx < 0.0092.(b) Explain why this means that
dx can be replaced by
dx without introducing an error of magnitude greater than 0.0092.
