Answer: the original length of the piece of wood is 23 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the original length of the piece of wood.

He cuts 3 feet off the piece of wood. This means that the remaining length of wood would be

(x - 3) feet

he cuts the remaining length of wood into four equal parts. if each part is 5 feet long, it means that

(x - 3)/4 = 5

Cross multiplying by 4, it becomes

x - 3 = 4 × 5

x - 3 = 20

x = 23

John has 17000 - 2500 = 14500 left to pay after the down payment 

Then add on the finance charges 14500 + 4900 = 19400

The total of $19400 is to be paid over 60 monthly instalments, so John will be paying 19400÷60 = $323.30 per month

Exponential growth would include, A = 20,000(1.08)^t, A=40(30), P=1700(1.07).

Decay would include, A=80(1/2)^t, A= 1600(.8), P=1700(.93)

Hope this helps.
