Answer

The math is below. The graph is attached.

Work Step by Step

We plug in the given values of t into the equation to find: A) $V(6) = 32500 - 1950(6) = 20800$ B) $V(9) = 32500 - 1950(9) = 14950$ C) The graph is attached. D) In order to estimate, first draw a vertical line at t=10. Then, estimate the value of p at the intersection. This value is 13,000. After all: $V(10) = 32500 - 1950(10) = 13000 $ E) In order to this, draw a horizontal line at V=0. Then, find the value of t when the line intersects the line graphed in part c. F) We find the actual value of the estimate in E: $ 0 = 32500 -1950 t \\ -32500 = -1950t \\ t=16.7$
