Question 980104: the value of a machine depreciates according to the function f(x) = 20000(1/2)^x, where x is the time in years from the purchase of the machine. Find its value after 3 years
Answer by jim_thompson5910(35256) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Plug in x = 3
f(x) = 20,000(1/2)^x
f(3) = 20,000(1/2)^3
f(3) = 20,000(1/8)
f(3) = 2,500
The value of the machine after 3 years is 2,500
