Answer: x = -24

Step-by-step explanation:

X/12 + 1/3 = -5/3

Find the LCM of the left hand side of the equation:

x + 4/12 = -5/3

Then cross multiply

3(x + 4) = -5/3

Open the bracket

3x + 12 = - 60

Subtract 12 from both sides of the equation

3x + 12 - 12 = -60 - 12

3x = -72

Divide both sides by 3

x = -72/3

x = -24

Check:

-24/12 + 1/3 = -5/3

Find the LCM of the left hand side of the equation

-24 + 4/12 = -20/12

Divide by a common factor of 4

-20/12 = -5/3

Answer:

$403.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Principal loan amount is the total amount minus down-payment:

Principal=24000-1000\\\\=23000

Knowing that n=12\times 6=72,P=23000, r=7.99\%/12=0.006658, the monthly payments can be calculated using the formula:

M=P[\frac{r(1+r)^n}{(1+r)^n-1}]\\\\=23000\frac{(0.006658(1.006658)^{72}}{1.006658^{72}-1}\\\\=403.15

Hence, the monthly payment is $403.15
