2. John Morse Corporation buys a van for $16,000. The estimated life of the van is four years. The residual value of the van is $4,000. After two years, the van is sold for $8,000. What was the difference between the book value and the amount received from selling the van if John used the
straight-line method of depreciation?
O A. $12,000
O B. $4,000
C. $2,000
D. $8,000

step-by-step explanation:

we are given a graph for system of inequalities.

in order to write the system of inequalities for the given graph, we need to find the inequality for each of the line separately.

let us find the slope of dotted line first.

taking two coordinates on the graph.

let us say (0,0) and (3,1).

let us find the slope of the line now.

slope of the dotted line would be =.

y-intercept of dotted line is y=0 only.

plugging slope m= and b=0 in slope-intercept form y=mx+b, we get

.

the line is shaded up of that dotted line.

therefore, for shading up we would take greater than inequality symbol > .

and because it's a dotted line we would take only > symbol in place of = sign in above equation of line.

therefore, inequality for dotted line would be

let us take two points (3,1) and (0,4) on the solid line.

slope of the solid line would be =.

for the solid line we have y-intercept b= 4.

plugging slope m= -1 and b=4 in slope-intercept form y=mx+b, we get

y = -1x + 4.

the line is shaded down of that solid line.

therefore, for shading down we would take less than inequality symbol < .

and because it's a solid line we would take ≤ symbol in place of = sign in above equation of line.

therefore, inequality for solid line would be

square root of 36/6 = 2.449489743

square root of 16/6 = 1.632993162

square root of 6 = 2.449489743

the answer is square root of 16/6 because the square root of 36/6 is the same answer as square root of 6 = 2.449489743
