-The Average Value of a Certain Type of Automobile Was $\frac { 1 } { 2076 }$

Multiple Choice

-The average value of a certain type of automobile was $15,780 in 1994 and depreciated to $5400 in 1999. Let y be the average value of the automobile in the year x, where x = 0 represents 1994. Write a linear equation in slope-intercept form that models the value of the automobile, y, x years after 1994.

A) y = - $\frac { 1 } { 2076 }$ x - 5400
B) y = -2076x + 5400
C) y = -2076x - 4980
D) y = -2076x + 15,780
