Answer:

The technology teacher will have a balance of 498 dollars to pay after making the third payment of 999 dollars

Explanation:

Hi


Balance_(0)=3,495=B_(0)


Payment=P=999

First payment


B_(1)=B_(0)-P=3,495-999=2,496

Second payment


B_(2)=B_(1)-P=2,496-999=1,497

Third payment and Final Balance


B_(3)=B_(2)-P=1,497-999=498

As we can see after making the third payment of 999 dollar there is a balance of 498 dollars, so this is the money the teacher has left to pay for the 3D Printer
