Rhonda bought a Toyota sedan. She put $4,000 down and is to make car payments of $315 a month until the car is paid off. Let x= the number of months, and let y= the total amount paid for the car. What if Rhonda decided ot pay $185 more on the car so that she can pay off the car early, then what would be the new equation for the situation in slop y-intercept form? How would
Equations and Inequations
Equations and inequalities describe the relationship between two mathematical expressions.
Linear Functions
A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.
