The statement that best explains the graph of the equation is C. The time the car is owned is greater than 0.
The term graph in math defined as the diagram that represents the variation of a variable in comparison with that of one or more other variables.
Here we have given that The function y=16500/x + 1020x /x models my the average annual cost in dollars of owning a car for x years.
And we need to find the statement that explains the graph of y=16500/x + 1020x/x should have a vertical asymptote at x=0
While we looking into the given question, we have identified the function,
=> y = (16500 + 1020x)/x
In this one, where x denotes years and y denotes annual cost
Here we have given that the graph of the given equation should have vertical asymptote at x =0
Now, we have to refers the attached graph .
Here increase in the time the cost (y) decreases
Therefore, the time must be greater than 0 that the change in the cost appears .
Therefore, the graph of the given equation should have vertical asymptote at x =0 and the time the car is owned is greater than 0.
Therefore, Option C is correct
