A veterinarian depreciates a $ 10 , 000 X-ray machine. He estimates that the resale value V t in $ after t years is 90 % of its value from the previous year. Therefore, the resale value can be approximated by V t = 10 , 000 0.9 t . a. Find the resale value after 4 yr. b. If the veterinarian wants to sell his practice 8 yr after the X-ray machine was purchased. how much is the machine worth? Round to the nearest $100 .
