Kenya plans to make a down payment plus monthly payments in order to buy a motorcycle. at one dealer she would pay $2,500 down and $150 each month. at another dealer, she would pay $3,000 down and $125 each month. after how many months would the total amount paid be the same for both dealers? what would that amount be?

Let us say that the total amount paid in the first dealer is P1 and the total amount paid to the second dealer is P2. So that:

P1 = 2500 + 150 t

P2 = 3000 + 125 t

Where t is the total number of months

Now we are asked when the total amount paid would be equal for the two dealers, this means P1 = P2, therefore equating the two:

2500 + 150 t = 3000 + 125 t

25 t = 500

t = 20 months

Therefore the total amount paid for both dealers would be equal after 20 months.

the slope of the first function is -3. (3/1)

the slope of the second function is 1. (13-10/6-3).

since |-3| is greater than |1|, the function with the steepest slope is the first.

2 over 5

step-by-step explanation:

the 2: 3 ratio is the length of the ac segment to the cb segment total length. this implies that the ratio between segment ac length and segment ab length is 2: 5. point c is 2/5 from a to b, so the required fraction is 2/5.
