Damien Smart is trying to decide whether to lease or purchase a new car costing $18,000. If he leases, he’ll have to pay a $600

security deposit and monthly payments of $450 over 36 month term of the closed-end-lease. On the other hand, if he buys the car, then he’ll have to make a $2,400 down payment and will finance the balance with a 36 month loan requiring monthly payments of $515; he’ll also have to pay a 6% sales tax ($1,080) on the purchase price, and he expects the car to have a residual value of $6,500 at the end of three years. Use the automobiles lease versus purchase analysis for in worksheet 5.1 to find the total cost of both the lease and the purchase and then recommend the best strategy for Damien.

If he leases.
$600 (for security deposit) + (450 x 36) for closed end lease
$600 + $16,200
Lease cost = 16,800

If he buys.
$2,400 (for down payment) + (515 x 36) for closed end lease + 1,080 (for 6% tax)
$2,400 + $18,540 + $1,080 = $22,020
Purchase cost = $22,020
After selling at the residual value of $6,500
Purchase cost minus Residual value
$22,020 - $6,500
=$15,520

So, if he leases he will not be able to have the residual value and he'll be spending more than if he buys. he'll actually be making a loss of $1,280.

Final thought: HE SHOULD BUY!

A one-topping pizza costs $15.00. Each additional topping costs $1.25. Let x be the number of additional toppings. You have $20
pantera1 [17]
So,

Our total will be equal to 20.  If we want 1 additional topping, we will have an additional $1.25.  <span>If we want 2 additional toppings, we will have an additional $2.50.  So we can just multiply the number of additional toppings by 1.25 to get the additional amount.

1.25x

However, you will have already spent $15.

1.25x + 15 = 20

This is option B.

P.S. You will be able to put exactly 4 additional toppings.</span>

A 47-foot-long piece of pipe is to be cut into three pieces. The second piece is three times as long as the first piece, and the
DanielleElmas [232]
A = first piece, b = second piece, c = third piece

a + b + c = 47
b = 3a
c = 5a + 2

a + (3a) + (5a + 2) = 47.....combine like terms
9a + 2 = 47
9a = 47 - 2
9a = 45
a = 45/9
a = 5 ft

b = 3a.....b = 3(5)....b = 15 ft
c = 5a + 2....c = 5(5) + 2.....c = 25 + 2....c = 27 ft

longest piece (c) = 27 ft
