Answer:
D. g(n)=2100(0.7)^nD. g(n)=2100(0.7)^
Explanation:
• The purchase price, i.e. the initial value of the computer = $2100.
,
• The rate at which its value reduces = 30%.
To determine the computer's value after n years of use, we use the depreciation formula below:
[tex]A(n)=P(1-r)^n[/tex]
In this case:
• The Principal, P = $2100
,
• The rate, r = 30%
Substitute these values into the formula.
[tex]\begin{gathered} g(n)=2100(1-30\%)^n \\ =2100(1-\frac{30}{100})^n \\ =2100(1-0.3)^n \\ \implies g(n)=2100(0.7)^n_{} \end{gathered}[/tex]
The function g(n) that represents the value of the computer after n years of use is Option D.
