By applying the formulas of present and future values of annuity we can solve this problem. In this mortgage problem, first we have to find loan amount after the down payment. It is 699,000 - 699,000 * 0.2 = 559,200$. We have to set it as PV (Present Value) of annuity. Using the PV formula
, we first find A, which is an annual payment. Exact calculation with mortgage calculator gives us A = 33,866.56$. After finding it, plugging this number into FV (Future Value) formula
, we find the value of the future value and it is 1,185,329.66$. And the total financial charge is 1,185,329.66 - 559,200 = 626,129.66$
B is the answer I think I spend to much

For each boy, there are 5 girls
it would be 0, because in the origin equations, the d's cancel out since it's x-x, only 2 would be left, therefore the correct answer is A since 0+2=2
