Naomi wants to buy a new computer for $840. She is considering two payment plans that require weekly payments. Which plan will pay for the computer faster? Explain.

Budget: $840

Plan A:$180 down.
$60/week payment

Plan B: $0 down
$70/week payments

Answer 1

Plan A)

Because if you do plan B then it will take 12 weeks to pay it off but plan A will take 11 weeks

Hope that helps :)

Answer 2

Plan A should pay for the computer faster.

Given that,

• The price of the new computer is $840.
• In Plan A, the down payment is $180 and there is a $60 per week payment.
• In Plan B, the down payment should be zero, and there is a $70 per week payment.

Now

For Plan A, the no of weeks should be

$= \frac{\ 840 - \ 180}{\ 60} \\\\= \frac{\ 660}{\ 60}$

= 11 weeks

For Plan B, the no of weeks should be

$= \frac{\ 840 -\ 0}{\ 70} \\\\= \frac{\ 840}{\ 70}$

= 12 weeks

Therefore we can conclude that Plan A should pay for the computer faster.
