In the equation, the number 6,000 represents the initial value of the motorcycle. The value of the motorcycle is increasing at a rate of 2% per year.
V=10,000 means that the value of the motorcycle is $10,000 at that specific time.
A value of t = -5 means that 5 years before the initial time, which would indicate the value of the motorcycle 5 years before the starting point.
