-9 because if you multiply a positive by a negative it equals a negative.
-3b4 • (6b2 + 6b + 5) • (b - 1)
Our three consecutive integers are
First: x
Second: x + 1
Third: x + 2
Here is the equation you need:
x + 2(x + 1) = (x + 2) + 4
Take it from here.
Answer:
After 16 months, the total amount paid would be the same for both dealers. This would be $5150.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = Number of months
Let y = Amount paid in $
y = 175x + 2350 (Dealer 1)
y = 150x + 2750 (Dealer 2)
175x + 2350 = 150x + 2750 (Make both equal and solve for x)
175x -150x = 2750 -2350
25x = 400
x = 16
After 16 months the total amount would be the same.
Now plug in 16 for x in any equation...
y = 150(16) + 2750
y = 2400 + 2750
y = 5150
