Alli just bought a new car. the car costs $25,000. she has already paid $15,000 with the down payment. she decided she wants to pay $200 each month. the price of the car also increases $25 each month. how many months will it take for all to pay off the car? write an equation and solve it

Respuesta :

Answer: 58 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of month to pay off the loan

$25,000 - $15,000 + $25x = 200x                  

Now it is simple algebra

10,000+25x= 200x            Subtract 25 x from both sides

10,000 = 175x

x=57.14 month     so Really 58 months till they pay it off
