The table shows the value in dollars of a motorcycle at the end of x years. Number of years, x Value, v(x) (dollars) Which exponential function models this situation?

1 answer

Without the table of values, we cannot determine the exact exponential function that models this situation. However, the general form of an exponential function is given by:

v(x) = a * b^x

where:
- v(x) is the value of the motorcycle at the end of x years
- a is the initial value of the motorcycle
- b is the growth/decay factor
- x is the number of years

By using the given table of values, you can plug in the values of x and v(x) into the exponential function to solve for the specific values of a and b.
