Assuming monthly payment of $250, which implies APR=0.01*12=0.12.
If it is different, please specify.

target P=20000,
A=250
n=to be determined such that P>=target P=20000
The annuity equation with given (monthly) payment is given by
P=250(P/A,i,n)
=A((1+i)^n-1)/(i(1+i)^n)
=250(1.01^n-1)/(0.01(1.01)^n)
=25000(1.01^n-1)/(1.01^n)
Solve for n by trial and error,
Rewrite 
20000<=25000(1-1/1.01^n)
=>
1.01^n>=25000/20000=1.25
Take log on both sides,
n*log(1.01)>=log(5)
n>=log(5)/log(1.01)=161. 75
=> n=162 (next integer)
Check:
P=250(P/A,0.01,162)=250*(1.01^162-1)/(.01*1.01^162)=20012.56 ok.

(8,9,2 )(3,5,7)(1,3,3)(5,3,2) which does not make up a triangle
OLga [1]
Most likely you are expected to recognize that side lengths 2, 3, 5 will result in a "triangle" of zero area (looks like a line segment).

The appropriate choice is 
   (5, 3, 2)

_____
Some authors write the triangle inequality as a + b ≥ c for any assignment of a, b, c to side lengths. The "or equal to ..." allows the triangle to have zero area (looks like a line segment). Other authors insist the inequality not include the "or equal to" case. It looks like your text's author is in the latter camp.

29. Consider the diagram below. Solve for x
Flauer [41]

Answer:

x = 76

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles are same side interior angles and same side interior angles are supplementary, which means they add to 180

x+104 = 180

Subtract 104 from each side

x+104-104 = 180-104

x =76
