What's the dífference between paying $10,000 cash for a car or paying a loan of $200 per month for 60 months?
kherson [118]

Answer:

The loan will cost you 2000 dollars more.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you pay 200 per month for 60 months, then you are paying 200(60) after the 60 months.

200(60)=12000.

So the loan will cost you 12000.

The difference between paying 12000 and 10000 is 2000.

The loan will cost you 2000 dollars more.

LekaFEV [45]

The inequalities is given by x + y ≤ 120, 4.75x + 7.5y > 690 and y ≥ 80. A possible solution is selling 10 tacos and 100 burritos

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Independent variables represent function inputs that do not depend on other values, while dependent variables represent function outputs that depends on other values.

Let x represent the number of tacos and y represent the number of burritos sold, hence:

x + y ≤ 120    (1)

Also:

4.75x + 7.5y > 690    (2)

and:

y ≥ 80   (3)

The inequalities is given by x + y ≤ 120, 4.75x + 7.5y > 690 and y ≥ 80. A possible solution is selling 10 tacos and 100 burritos
