Answer 6

Sorry. by bad aggain.
here i'll show you the steps. but me and you are wrong.
ok the difference between 2002 and 1994 is 8 years. and 19126 and 16930 is $2196. so in 8 years the price has gone up only by 2196. we take 2196/8 = $274.5
so each year it goes up by 274.5
we need to find in 2008. right?
2008-1994=14. so that is in 14 years how much has it gone up by. take 274.5*14=3843
now 3843+16930=20773
