Chris purchased a car at 0% interest for five years. After making a down payment, she agreed to pay the remaining $36,000 in monthly payments of $600 per month for 60 months. a) What does the function f(x)= 36,000-600x represent? b) Find the inverse of the function in part a) and what does that represent?
What is the balance due after x months and the inverse is 60-(x/600) representing the number of months that have passed from the first payment until the balance due is $x?
