For this week only, you can buy a Dell for $2988, including taxes. Included in the offer is a finance option for 4 years at an annual percentage rate of 3.5%. Find the monthly payment.

$66.80

Step-by-step explanation:

The monthly payment can be computed using the pmt formula in excel spreadsheet as shown below:

=pmt(rate,nper,-pv,fv)

the rate is the interest rate of 3.5% divided by 12 months to show interest rate per month

nper is the number of months it would take to complete the payments which is 4 years multiplied by 12 months i.e 48 months

pv is the cost of the gadget at $2,988

fv is the sum of all month payments which is not unknown

=pmt(3.5%/12,48,-2988,0)=$66.80

step-by-step explanation:

the formula for the constant of variation is

y= kx

divide each side by x

y/x =kx/x

y/x =k

we know a and y

1.   y/x = k

4/1 =4

check the other values to make sure they are the same

8/2 = 4   12/3 =4   and 16/4 =4  

the constant of variation is 4

2.   y/x = k

3/1 =3

check the other values to make sure they are the same

6/2 = 3   9/3 =3   and 12/4 =3  

the constant of variation is 3
