The depreciating value of a semi-truck can be modeled by y = Ao(0.85)x, where y is the remaining value of the semi, x is the time in years, and it depreciates at 15% per year.
An exponential function comes down from the positive infinity and passes through the points zero comma seventy five thousand. The graph is approaching the x axis.
What is the value of the truck initially, Ao, and how would the graph change if the initial value was only $65,000?
