y=2/3y-3
1. y = 2/3 (9)-3 multiply 9 and 2 =18/3
y=18/3-3 divide 18 and 3 =6
y=6-3 subt. 3
y=3
2. -11=2/3x - 3
-11+3 = 2/3 x add 3 to both sides to cancel -3
-8=2/3 x
(3/2)-8 = (2/3)3/2 x multiply both sides by reciprical of 2/3
-24/2 = x divide
-12=x
Y=10x+1
x=-1→y=10(-1)+1=-10+1→y=-9
x=0→y=10(0)+1=0+1→y=1
x=1→y=10(1)+1=10+1→y=11
x=5→y=10(5)+1=50+1→y=51

Current value of the boat = $45000
Rate at which the value decrease = 8.5%
Value decreased after 1 year =
Hence, value becomes =
Value decreased after 2nd year =
Hence, value becomes =
Value decreased after 3 year =
Hence, value becomes =
So, value of the boat after 3 years becomes $34472.74
