* The monthly mortgage payment is $629.53 ⇒ answer C

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- Leila is considering buying her first home

- The house she is interested in buying is priced at $125,000

∴ She can put $20000 down  payment

* Lets find the balance to be paid off on mortgage

∴ The balance = 125000 - 20000 = 105000

- She qualifies for a 30-year mortgage at 6%

* Lets find the rule of the monthly payment

∵ , where  

- pmt is the monthly mortgage payment

- P = the initial amount  

- r = the annual interest rate (decimal)

- n = the number of times that interest is compounded per unit t

- t = the time the money is invested or borrowed for

∵ P = 105000

∵ r = 6/100 = 0.06

∵ n = 12

∵ t = 30

∴

∴  

* The monthly mortgage payment is $629.53

in simplified version   it would be x ≤-4

step-by-step explanation:

multiply each term in x ≤-4 by -1
