the value, v, of a shopkeepers inventory software program is given by v= -(1)/(2)t+5 where t is the number of years since the shopkeeper bought the program. What is the program worth 4 years after its first year purchased? Plot the point with the given t-value, 4
you have to substitute the value of t given in the problem to the equation to get v,, therefore:
v = (-1/2)(4) + 5
v = 3
therefore, the point is at (4,3) assuming that v is the vertical axis and t is the horizontal axis of rectangular coordinate plane,,
so there,, =)
THANK YOU!!!
To find the value of the software program 4 years after its first year of purchase, we can substitute the value of t = 4 into the equation v = -(1/2)t + 5.
Let's calculate it step by step:
v = -(1/2)t + 5
v = -(1/2)(4) + 5
v = -2 + 5
v = 3
Therefore, the program is worth 3 units after 4 years of its first year of purchase.
To plot a point with the given t-value of 4 on a graph, we use a coordinate system. The t-value corresponds to the x-coordinate, and the corresponding v-value is the y-coordinate.
The point with a t-value of 4 is (4, 3).
