Summarizing the problem, there are three terms that you have to deal with: purchasing cost, down payment and loan. So, you would expect that the answer would contain these quantities. Among them, the unknown is the purchasing cost, therefore, we denote this as x.
<span>Based on the statement, "The amount of the loan is the purchase cost minus the down payment", we can formulate an equation for this.
Amount of Loan = x - Down payment
This will be our working equation. Moving on, the down payment was mentioned to be equal to </span>$1500. The lean received is equal to <span>$2600. Substituting these values to the working equation, we can now determine the value of x.
2600 = x - 1500
Solving for x by transposing it to one side,
x = 2600-1500
x = $1,100
Therefore, the purchasing cost of the car is $1,100.</span>
Hey there!!
Given equation :
... c(x) = 29x + 54.5
<em>In this equation $54.50 is installation fee and this would remain as a constant. ( This value wouldn't change ). </em>
<em>'x' is represented as the number of months. </em>
The total cost or c(x) is given as $344.50
Getting this into equations :
... 344.50 = 29x + 54.5
Subtracting 54.5 on both sides :
... 29x = 290
Dividing by 29 on both sides :
... x = 10
<u><em>Hence, the number of months is 10. </em></u>
Hope my answer helps!!
4 miles are about 7040 yards so they are very close but a mile is longer.
The answer to that question is 27 cm
