Financial advisors recommend that a maximum of 22% of your monthly income be spent on vehicle expenses (total of car payment, car insurance, and maintenance/fuel). Nadias monthly income is $3200. She wants to take out a loan to buy a 2018 Kia Soul which would result in monthly vehicle expenses consisting of a $515 car payment, $78 car insurance, and $125 maintenance/fuel expenses. What percentage of Nadias monthly income would be spent on vehicle expenses if she purchases the 2018 Kia Soul? Round the percentage to one decimal place.

Step-by-step explanation:

Her monthly vehicle expense is 515+78+ 125 = 718

Her income is 3200

Let 718 = x% of 3200

Then 718 = x X 3200/100 x = 718/32 = 22.435 which = 22.4

the first one is x^2+2x+2

the second one is x^2+4

the last one is x^2-4x+8

if gloria has "carry over" minutes, (that is, any minutes paid for but not used in a month can be applied to her payment for minutes in the next month,) her total usage for the three months is: total minutes = 320 + 243 + 489 = 1052 minutes number of 200 minute blocks = 1052/200 = 5 r52 (that is 5 with a remainder of 52) rounding up the number of 200 minute blocks gives her usage for the three months as 6 blocks. the cost for six blocks is 6 x $25 = $150 she also has 200 - 52 or 148 carry over minutes if gloria pays each month and unused minutes are lost, applying the rounding up procedure to each month gives: first month usage of 320 minutes rounds up to 2 blocks of 200 minutes for a payment of 2 x $25 = $50 second month usage of 243 minutes rounds up to 2 blocks of 200 minutes for a payment of 2 x $25 = $50 third month usage of 489 minutes rounds up to 3 blocks of 200 minutes for a payment of 3 x $25 = $75 total payments for the three months are $50 + $50 + $75 = $175 get the plan with carry over minutes!
