Hank and Lynn are both paying off car loans. • Hank paid $2,000 upfront when he bought his car, and he pays $200 each month. • Lynn did not pay any money upfront when she bought her car, and she pays $275 each month. Is the relationship between the number of months and the total amount paid proportionally for both Hank's and Lynn's loans?

Answer:

the linkage between both the number of months and the amount charged is proportional to both loans from Hank and Lynn.

Explanation:

The relationship between the number of months and the total cost paid proportionally is shown below:-

Both Hank and Lynn pay off car loans.

When Hank bought his car, he paid $2,000 in advance, and he needs to pay $200 each month.

Thus, forward to x months the total cost paid (C(h)) is

C(h) = 2000 + 200x ... (i)

So, that relationship is proportional, but not proportional directly.

When Lynn purchased her vehicle, she didn't pay any cash immediately front and she needs to pay $275 every month.

So, after x months the total amount paid (C(l)) is

C(l) = 275x ..... (ii)

This is, therefore, a direct proportionality that is also proportional.

Furthermore the linkage between both the number of months and the amount charged is proportional to both loans from Hank and Lynn.
