Let the number of orders Eric served be x

Eric = x
Mai =  x+ 8         [Mai served 8 more than Eric]
Dean = 3x           [Dean served 3 times as many as Eric]

Given that the total is 103
x + x + 8 + 3x = 103  
5x + 8 = 103
5x = 103 - 8
5x = 95
x = 19


x = 19
x + 8 = 19 + 8 = 27
3x = 19 x 3 = 57

Eric served 19
Mai served 27
Dean served 57

 <span>B(n) = A(1 + i)^n - (P/i)[(1 + i)^n - 1] 

where B is the balance after n payments are made, i is the monthly interest rate, P is the monthly payment and A is the initial amount of loan. 

We require B(n) = 0...i.e. balance of 0 after n months. 

so, 0 = A(1 + i)^n - (P/i)[(1 + i)^n - 1] 

Then, with some algebraic juggling we get: 

n = -[log(1 - (Ai/P)]/log(1 + i) 

Now, payment is at the beginning of the month, so A = $754.43 - $150 => $604.43 

Also, i = (13.6/100)/12 => 0.136/12 per month 

i.e. n = -[log(1 - (604.43)(0.136/12)/150)]/log(1 + 0.136/12) 

so, n = 4.15 months...i.e. 4 payments + remainder 

b) Now we have A = $754.43 - $300 = $454.43 so, 

n = -[log(1 - (454.43)(0.136/12)/300)]/log(1 + 0.136/12) 

so, n = 1.54 months...i.e. 1 payment + remainder
