Jaime needs a new roof on her house. The cash cost is $7500. She decides to finance the project by paying 20% down , with the balance paid in 36 monthly payments of $189.40. (a) What finance charge will Jaime pay? (b) What is the APR to the nearest half percent ?

Answers

Answer:

(a) What finance charge will Jaime pay?

$818.4

(b) What is the APR to the nearest half percent ?

8.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) What finance charge will Jaime pay?

The cash cost is $7500. She decides to finance the project by paying 20% down

Amount paid for down payment = $7500 × 20/100

= $1500

Amount left = $7500 - $1500

= $6000

The balance paid in 36 monthly payments of $189.40.

Hence: $189.40 × 36 = $6818.4

The finance charge = $6818.4 - $6000

= $818.4

(b) What is the APR to the nearest half percent ?

Step 1

Finance charge/ Amount left × 100

= 818.4/6000 × 100

= 13.64

Using the APR table:

The APR to the nearest half percent = 8.5%

The complete question is:

Carla and Daniel bought identical suitcases at different stores. Carla's suitcase originally cost $75 and was discounted 19% Daniel's suitcase original cost $85 and was on sale for 20% off the original price. Which suitcase was the cheaper?

Solution:

Cost Price of Carla's suitcase = $75

        Discount% for Carla = 19%

        The amount paid by Carla is,

        [tex]\text{Amount}=CP\times [1-d\%]=75\times [1-0.19]=60.75[/tex]

        So, the amount paid by Carla was, $60.75.

Cost Price of Jeana's suitcase = $85

        Discount% for Jeana = 20%

        The amount paid by Jeana is,

        [tex]\text{Amount}=CP\times [1-d\%]=85\times [1-0.20]=68[/tex]

        So, the amount paid by Jeana was, $68.

Carla's suitcase was a better purchase.

At an opening of a new art gallery, the owner hired a caterer to serve light snacks. The owner created a budget for 150 people to attend the opening, with a per person food cost of $4.25. If the number of guests attending the opening was 56% more than expected, then how much was the final food cost?


$234.00
$357.00
$637.50
$994.50

Answers

Answer: $994.50

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that the owner created a budget for 150 people to attend the opening, with a per person food cost of $4.25. This means that the total cost to cater for the 150 people will be:

= 150 × $4.25

= $637.5

We are further told that the number of guests attending the opening was 56% more than expected, then the final food cost will be represented by:

= $637.5 + (56% × $637.5)

= $637.5 + (0.56 × $637.5)

= $637.5 + $357

= $994.50

Carlos sold 6 cellphones every hour during the day, but in the morning he already ha $1,250 in the register. What is the expression that represents the total amount of money that he should have in the register in a given hour?

A: $1250
B: 6x
C: 6x + 1250
D: 1250x + 6

Answers

Answer: 6x+1250

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount already in the register = $1250

Number of phones sold every hour = 6

Price of the phone = x

The expression that represents the total amount of money that he should have in the register in a given hour will be:

= $1250 + $6x.

Therefore, option C that is 6x + 1250 is the correct answer.

An aquarium is being filled at a rate of 2.5 inches per second. The equationLaTeX: y=2.5xy = 2.5 x is used to determine the height of the water after LaTeX: xx seconds. Find the domain and range of the situation if it takes 60 seconds to fill the aquarium.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation y = 2,5x

y is the height of the water

x is the time.

To get the range of values of the height at t = 60s, we will substitute x = 60 into the function

y = 2.5(60)

y = 150 in

Hence the range of the situation is [0, 150].

The domain will be all positive integers i.e xEZ

Un robot en Marte tiene los siguientes desplazamientos antes de lograr encontrar el lugar con las coordenadas indicadas para empezar a analizar . Su desplazamiento es de: 25 m al Sur, 35 m a 15° partiendo del Este hacia el Norte y por último 20 m a 37° partiendo del Oeste hacia el Norte. Encuentra el desplazamiento de su recorrido

Answers

Answer:

El desplazamiento total del robot es de aproximadamente 17.4 m 12.35° al sur del este

Step-by-step explanation:

El movimiento del robot en Marte se da como sigue;

1) El desplazamiento sur = 25 m

2) El desplazamiento 15 ° al norte del este = 35 m

3) El desplazamiento 37 ° al norte del oeste = 20 m

Por lo tanto, tenemos la moción en forma vectorial;

1) -25[tex]\hat j[/tex]

2) 35·cos(15°)[tex]\hat i[/tex] + 35·sin(15°)[tex]\hat j[/tex]

3) -20·cos(37)[tex]\hat i[/tex] + 20·sin(37°)[tex]\hat j[/tex]

Por lo tanto, tenemos el desplazamiento resultante total, R, del robot está dado por la suma de los vectores como sigue;

R =  (35·cos(15°) - 20·cos(37)) [tex]\hat i[/tex] + (35·sin(15°) + 20·sin(37°) - 25)[tex]\hat j[/tex]

R = 17.8346937192 [tex]\hat i[/tex] - 3.9050329583 [tex]\hat j[/tex]  

La magnitud de R = √ ((17.8346937192) ² + (-3.9050329583) ²) ≈ 17.4 m

La magnitud de R ≈ 17,4 m

La dirección de R = Arctan ((- 3.9050329583) / (17.8346937192)) ≈ -12.35 °

La dirección de R ≈ -12,35 °

La dirección es aproximadamente 12,35 ° al sur del este

El desplazamiento total del robot es de aproximadamente 17.4 m 12.35 ° al sur del este

Step-by-step explanation:

sqrt of 81 = 9, (we do sqrt because its the inverse to exponents) x^4, x^2 * x^2 = (9x^2)^2

sqrt of 121 = 11, a^6, a^x * a^2 = a^6, x = 3, (11a^3)^2

sqrt of 0.09 = 0.3, y^12 = y^x * y^2, x=6,(0.3y^6)^2

sqrt of 4/9 = 2/3, b^x * b^2 = b^6, x = 3, (2/3b^3)^2

Casey bought 3/8 pound of plums and 5/12 pound of bananas. How many pounds of fruit did he buy?

Answers

Answer:

19/24 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total number of pounds, we should add 3/8 and 5/12. They both have different denominators, so we have to find the least common multiple between 12 and 8. The least common multiple between 12 and 8 is 24. 12 should be multiplied by 2 to get 24 (5 too) and 8 should be multiplied by 3 to get 24 (3 too).

Min Jee wants to build a small patio. It will be 70 inches long and 49 inches wide. She can't decide whether to use brick or concrete paver stones. Each brick covers an area of 3 1/2inches by 7 1/2 inches and costs $0.59. Each paver covers an area 8.4 inches by 8.4 inches and costs $1.88. Which would be less expensive to use, and by how much?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

firstly, let us solve for the area of the patio, from the information given the patio we have a rectangular orientation.

Area of patio

length=70in

width=49in

Area=70x49

Area=3430in^2

Area of brick

length=7.5in

width=3.5in

Area=7.5x3.5

Area=26.25in^2

Amount of brick needed =3430/26.25

Amount of brick needed =130.66

The Total cost of brick=130.66x0.59

The Total cost of brick=$77.09

Area of paver

length=8.4in

width=8.4in

Area=8.4x8.4

Area=70.56in^2

Amount of brick needed =3430/70.56

Amount of brick needed =48.61

The Total cost of brick=48.61x1.88

The Total cost of brick=$91.38

Brick would be less expensive by =91.38-77.09= $14.29
