The interest at the end of the first month can be calculated given that the interest rate per month. Once, you get the interest rate per month, you multiply it to the price when you purchased the car.

9) yes, he is correct.
50% as a decimal would be 0.50
7% as a decimal would be 0.07
10)Buy and Bye has a greater discount because 30% as a decimal is 0.30 and 1/4 as a decimal is 0.25.
0.30 is bigger than 0.25 so it is a bigger discount
-3(x-14)+9x=6x+24
-3x+42+9x=6x+24
-3x+9x-6x=-24-42
0=-18
F(x)=-3(x)+4
Therefore this implies that we must put the -4 where we see an X on the equation
F(-4)=-3(-4)+4
