Solve Assume the Exercise Describes a Linear Relationship $- \frac { 1 } { 2490 }$

Multiple Choice

Solve. Assume the exercise describes a linear relationship. When writing a linear equation, write the equation in
slope-intercept form.
-The average value of a certain type of automobile was $15,600 in 1993 and depreciated to $5640 in 1997. Let y be the average value of the automobile in the year x, where x = 0 represents 1993. Write a linear equation that
Models the value of the automobile in terms of the year x.

A) y = -2490x + 5640
B) y = $- \frac { 1 } { 2490 }$ x x- 5640
C) y = -2490x + 15,600
D) y = -2490x - 4320
