a. Equation: P * (vt)
You take the initial value (P) and multiply it by the amount added or subtracted to the account per year/month/day and the amount of years/months days. In your case, it would be a monthly basis. This would be the equation (with t equalling the amount of months passed): 4800 * (-400*t). Notice that v is negative because you are subtracting money.
b.  I can't make a table of values on here, but just have x = the amount of months passed and y = the value after that many months

Answer:

A checking account is set up with an initial balance of $4800, and $400 is removed from the account each month for rent.

A: Let there be m months where $400 is removed from the account. And let x shows the amount of money left.

So, the equation becomes: [tex]x=4800-400m[/tex]

B: The table can form like:

m     1            2           3             4           5          6             7         8  

x    4400     4000    3600    3200    2800     2400    2000   1600
