Well, if this is assuming there is no tax on the vehicle and it is fully paid off by the end of the payments, an equation can be set up like the following. 385x+1500=C, x being months and C being total cost. 385(12*4)+1500= C, 385(48)+1500=C, 18480+1500=C, 19980=C.
Answer:
a)Number of terms =15
Value of sum =
(b)Number of terms =6
Value of sum
Step-by-step explanation:
A.
nth term,
a=5, r=
Simce the bases are the same, the powers are equal.
n-1=14
n=14+1=15
Number of terms =
15
Value of sum =
B.
nth term,
a=,
Simce the bases are the same, the powers are equal.
4+n-1=9
n=9+1-4=6
Number of terms =
6
Value of sum
NOTE: For the sum, we desire an expression that gives the exact value, rather than entering an approximation
