Respuesta :

given data:

the amount needed to pay the downpayment of the car = $5280.

original financial plan = $220 per month.

The amount kara saved after 1 year = $2300.

the balance amount she needed to save

[tex]\begin{gathered} =5280-2300 \\ =2980 \end{gathered}[/tex]

now, divide the balance amount by 12, because 1 year =12 months.

[tex]\begin{gathered} =\frac{2980}{12} \\ =248.3 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Thus, kara needs to save 248 dollors each month in order to have 5280 dollors after a year.
