A computer purchased for $1,650 loses 15% of its value every year. The computer's value can be modeled bythe function v(t) = a bt, where v is the dollar value and t the number of years since purchase.(A) Give the function that models the decrease in value of the computer: v(t) =(B) In how many years will the computer be worth half its original value? Round answer to 1 decimal place.years

We can model the function by using the exponential model.
