The equation V(t) = 12,000(0.75)^t represents the value of a motorcycle t years after it was purchased. Which statement is true?

(1) The motorcycle cost $9000 when purchased.

(2) The motorcycle cost $12,000 when purchased.

(3) The motorcycle's value is decreasing at a rate of 75% each year.

(4) The motorcycle's value is decreasing at a rate of 0.25% each year.

(2) The motorcycle cost $12,000 when purchased.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the standard exponential equation, y = ab^x, a is the original value.

Since the equation is V(t) = 12,000(0.75)^t, a is 12,000.

This means that the original value was 12,000.

So, the motorcycle cost $12,000 when it was first purchased.

The correct answer is (2) The motorcycle cost $12,000 when purchased.

fa tha first one you gonna add y to both sides

it look like this

x-y+y=6+y

x=y+6

therefore your answer is

x =y+6

fa tha second one

you gonna flip tha equation

it gonna look like x-4y=y

then add 4 to both sides

it gonna look like tha

x-4 +4 =y +4

so therefore tha answer is x=y+4

step-by-step explanation:

answer for #1 is c

answer for #2 is d
