16. Suppose the value of a piece of machinery decrease each year by \( 10 \% \) of its original value. If the original value RM8000, find an equation that expresses the value \( v \) of the machinery \( t \) years after purchase, \( 0 \leq t \leq 10 \) . Sketch the equation. What is the slope resulting line?
