A small business buys a computer for $4600. After 4 years the value of the computer is expected to be $200. For accounting purposes the business uses linear depreciation to assess the value of the computer at a given time. This means that if V is the value of the computer at time t, then a linear equation is used to relate V and t.
(a) Find a linear equation that relates V and t.
Find the depreciated value of the computer 3 years from the date of purchase.
