Answer:

23.

Step-by-step explanation:

My assumption: You mean when you add the numbers, they equal 182.

Let x be the smallest number. Then we are asked to solve the following equation:

x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x + 3) + (x + 4) + (x + 5) + (x + 6) = 182.

Rearranging the equation gives us:

7x + 21 = 182 => x + 3 = 26 => x = 23.

So the smallest number is 23 (since our assumption was that x is the smallest number.

----

You could very well have stated that x was the middle number as a lot of cancellations would occur. That is:

(x - 3) + (x - 2) + (x - 1) + x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x - 3) = 182.

7x = 182 => x = 26 so the smallest would be 26 - 3 = 23.

Answer: a. They can find the present value of the remaining 20 years worth of payments.

Step-by-step explanation:

The present value of the payments for the servicing of the loan is the amount of the loan that is still owed because the payments include both the interest and the principal repayments.

The Schmidts can therefore find out the amount they still owe by checking the present value of the remaining 20 years worth of payments.

As the payments are usually constant they can be treated as an annuity so using the monthly payment as the annuity, the interest rate as the discount rate and the 20 years ( 240 months) as the period, they should be able to find the present value of the loan.
