For the first situation, taking x as the number of years since the investment was made, the formula that gives the investment C is:
[tex]C=63x+1100[/tex]In which the initial value is $1100 and it increases at a rate of $63 each year.
Similar is the second case:
[tex]C=-48x+800[/tex]In which the initial value is $800 and it decreases at a rate of $48 each year.
