The value of a baseball card in dollars has been found to be 0.15y + 0.35, where y is the number of years since it was released. By how much is the baseball card's value increasing per year?

Question

A.

$0.15

B.

$0.35

C.

15%

D
.

35%

Answer 1

The value of the baseball card is given by the function \( V(y) = 0.15y + 0.35 \), where \( y \) represents the number of years since it was released.

To determine how much the value of the baseball card is increasing per year, we can look at the coefficient of \( y \) in the expression. In this case, the coefficient of \( y \) is \( 0.15 \). This means that the value of the baseball card is increasing by \( 0.15 \) dollars for each additional year.

Therefore, the answer is:

A. \( $0.15 \)
