To complete the table, we can use the function \( f(x) = 375,000(1.06)^x \) to calculate the value of the home after each year, for \( x = 0 \) to \( x = 5 \).
Here's how we can calculate each value step-by-step:
-
For \( x = 0 \): \[ f(0) = 375,000(1.06)^0 = 375,000 \text{ (This is already provided)} \]
-
For \( x = 1 \): \[ f(1) = 375,000(1.06)^1 = 375,000 \times 1.06 = 397,500 \]
-
For \( x = 2 \): \[ f(2) = 375,000(1.06)^2 = 375,000 \times 1.1236 = 421,350 \]
-
For \( x = 3 \): \[ f(3) = 375,000(1.06)^3 = 375,000 \times 1.191016 = 446,127 \]
-
For \( x = 4 \): \[ f(4) = 375,000(1.06)^4 = 375,000 \times 1.26247696 = 472,194 \]
-
For \( x = 5 \): \[ f(5) = 375,000(1.06)^5 = 375,000 \times 1.338225 = 501,093.75 \approx 501,094 \text{ (rounding to the nearest whole number)} \]
Now we can fill out the table:
| Year (x) | Home Value (f(x)) | |----------|----------------------| | 0 | 375,000 | | 1 | 397,500 | | 2 | 421,350 | | 3 | 446,127 | | 4 | 472,194 | | 5 | 501,094 |
This completed table gives you the values for the home sale after each year. You can use these points to plot the graph accordingly.
