Answer:

y = 31000(.91)^x

3 years

y = 23360.70

8 years

y = 14577.80

11 years

y = 10985.40

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential functions

y =ab^x  where a is the initial value

b = 1-rate of depreciation

a = 31000

b = 1 -.09  = .91

y = 31000(.91)^x

3 years

y = 31000 (.91)^3

y = 23360.70

8 years

y = 31000 (.91)^8

y = 14577.80

11 years

y = 31000 (.91)^11

y = 10985.40
