Hank and Lynn are both paying off car loans. • Hank paid $2,000 up front when he bought his car, and he pays $200 each month.
• Lynn did not pay any money up front when she bought her car, and she pays $275 each
month.
Is the relationship between the number of months and the total amount paid proportional
for both Hank's and Lynn's loans? Use the drop-down menus to explain your answer.

The relationship of the number of months and the total amount paid is proportional for both Hanks and Lynn.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us divide the equation into 2 parts.

Hanks

Hank paid $2000 up front when he bought the car and he pays $200 every month. Therefore, the total amount paid (y)  and the number of month (x)can be expressed as follows.

Let

x = number of month

y = total amount paid

y = 2000 + 200x

The relationship between amount paid and the number of months is proportional

Lynn

She did not paid anything upfront but she paid $275 every month. Therefore,

x = number of month

y = total amount paid

y = 275x

This relationship between amount paid and number of month is directly proportional

you can't solve x because it is 2 linear equation and you only have one equation
