Question 1034474: An office building worth $16, 172, 800 million when completed in 1990 was depreciated linearly over 50 years to $10, 000, 000.
a) Express the book value of the building V (n) as a function of year starting from 1990: n = 0, V (0) = 16, 172, 800 and sketch a graph.
Ok so the equation would be 22 + (x-100/50) I believe. But I don't think I'm making the graph correctly
Thank you!
