Joey borrows 2000 from his grandfather and pays the money back in monthly payments of 200. 1. Write a lineat function that represents the remaining money owed L(x) after x months.
2. Evaluate L(10) and interpret the meaning in the context of this problem.
A. L(x) - 200x + 2,400; L(10) = 4,400, This represents the amount Joey has paid his grandfather after 10 months.
B. L(x) = 200x + 2,400; L(10) - 4,400, This represents the amount Joey still owes his grandfather after 10 months.
C. L(x) = -200x + 2,400; L(10) = 400, This represents the amount Joey has paid his grandfather after 10 months.
D. L(x) = -200x + 2,400; L(10) = 400, This represents the amount Joey still owes his grandfather after 10 months.

The correct question is;

Joey borrows $2400 from his grandfather and pays the money back in monthly payments of $200.

a. Write a linear function that represents the remaining money owed L(x) after x months.

b. Evaluate L(10) and interpret the meaning in the context of this problem.

A) L(x) = 200x + 2400; L(10) = 4400, This represents the amount Joey still owes his

grandfather after 10 months.

B) L(x) = -200x + 2400; L(10) = 400, This represents the amount Joey has paid his

grandfather after 10 months.

C) L(x) = 200x + 2400; L(10) = 4400, This represents the amount Joey has paid his

grandfather after 10 months.

D) L(x) = -200x + 2400; L(10) = 400, This represents the amount Joey still owes his

grandfather after 10 months.

A) L(x) = 2400 - 200x

B) Option D is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

A) We are told that Joey borrowed 2400.

Now he pays back in installments of 200 every month.

Thus for x number of months he would have paid 200x.

Thus,the linear function that represents the remaining money owed is;

L(x) = 2400 - 200x

B) L(10) = 2400 - (200 * 10)

L(10) = 2400 - 2000

L(10) = 400

Thus, after 10 months, Joey is owing 400.

So, looking at the given options, the correct one is option D.
