The tool I used for modellin is MS Excel. As you on the left side of the picture, I tabulate the x and y coordinates with respect to their columns. Then, I plotted it using the scatter plot graph. In this type of graph, only plots are drawn on the Cartesian plane. Next, I created a trendline as represented by the blue dashed line. There are options to the degree of your trendline: linear, polynomial or exponential. The closes fit is the polynomial with a degree of 2. An option is listed there in displaying the equation. The equation modelled by regression through data fitting is:
y = x² - 4x+1
y = x² - 4x+1

Answer:
- 20 months
- $5500
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a couple of ways to work a problem like this. You have probably been taught to write equations for each of the payment amounts as a function of time, then equate those values to solve for the time that makes them equal.
at dealer 1, the total amount paid (y) will be a function of months (x):
y = 2500 +150x
at dealer 2, the corresponding equation is ...
y = 3000 +125x
These are equal when ...
y = y
2500 +150x = 3000 +125x
25x = 500 . . . . . . . . . subtract 125x +2500 from both sides
x = 500/25 = 20
The total paid will be the same after 20 months.
That amount is ...
y = 2500 +150(20) = 5500
$5500 will be paid to either dealer after 20 months.

The other way to work the problem is to "cut to the chase". The difference in down payment is made up at the rate of difference in monthly payments. So The number of monthly payments (x) required to equal the difference in down payments is ...
25x = 500 . . . . . . . . . you may recognize this equation from above
x = 500/25 = 20
