Answer :

Answer:

8 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Amount of money present in the bank account = $2,571.68

Automatic monthly rental payments for car loan = $321.46

Any deposits in the bank account are stopped.

To find:

The number of months taken so that the automatic payments make the value of the account as zero?

Solution:

Let the number of months taken to make the value of the account zero = [tex]m[/tex] months

To find the value of [tex]m[/tex], we need to divide the total amount initially present in bank account with the monthly rental payment amount.

Therefore, the equation to find the value of [tex]m[/tex], can be written as:

[tex]m = \dfrac{2571.68}{321.46}[/tex]

On solving the above equation, we get the value as following:

[tex]\bold{m=8}[/tex] months
