The graph below models the value of a $20,000 car t years after it was purchased. Value of Car

A graph titled Value of Car has years on the x-axis and Dollars on the y-axis. A line curves down and goes through points (0, 20,000), (4, 10,000), and (14, 2,000).

Which statement best describes why the value of the car is a function of the number of years since it was purchased?
Each car value, y, is associated with exactly one time, t.
Each time, t, is associated with exactly one car value, y.
The rate at which the car decreases in value is not constant.
There is no time, t, at which the value of the car is 0.

Each time, t, is associated with exactly one car value, y.

Step-by-step explanation:

The concept being tested is functions.

The graph describe is a vertical parabola that opens downwards.

All vertical parabolas are functions because the pass the vertical line test.

In other words, each time, t, is associated with exactly one car value, y.

The correct answer is the second option.

Step-by-step explanation:

describing distributions is one of the key skills you’ll need to earn a high score on the ap statistics exam. if you need proof of this, just flip through some past exam questions, which can be found at the collegeboard website. you’ll notice that the first free response question is almost always a question requiring you to look at a graph and describe it.
