Jack and Jill are beginning a lawn care business. They have purchased a zero turn radius riding lawn mower for $6,500. For tax purposes, its value is expected to depreciate at a rate of 15% annually. Which function represents the value of the riding lawn mower in dollars, V(t), as a function of elapsed time in years, t? 1 A V(t) = (0.85)* V(t) = 15(6500) V(t) = 6500(0.85)t V(t) = 6500(0.15)
