Answer:

$\bold {$\dfrac{7}{44}$}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3> Reciprocal:</h3>

$\sf \text{The reciprocal of any number $\dfrac{a}{b}$ is given by $\dfrac{b}{a}$}\\\\5\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{11}{2}\\\\\text{Reciprocal of $\dfrac{11}{2}$ = $\dfrac{2}{11}$}$

<h3>Additive inverse:</h3>

$\text{Additive inverse of $\dfrac{-7}{8}$=$\dfrac{7}{8}$}$

Now multiply,

$\sf \dfrac{7}{8}*\dfrac{2}{11}=\dfrac{7}{4}*\dfrac{1}{11}\\$

$=\dfrac{7}{44}$

Find the savings plan balance after 2 years with an APR of 4% and monthly payments of $250. The balance is $ (Do not round until

alexdok [17]

Answer:

$6,506.51

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that increasing an amount C in x% is equivalent to multiply it by (1+x/100)

As we have 4% APR, the monthly interest would be (4/12)% = 0.04/12

<u>Month 0</u> (first payment)

$250

Month 1

$250 + 250 \frac{0.04}{12}= 250(\frac{12.04}{12})$

<u>Month 2</u>

$250(1+\frac{12.04}{12}+(\frac{12.04}{12})^2)$

<u>Month 3</u>

$250(1+\frac{12.04}{12}+(\frac{12.04}{12})^2+(\frac{12.04}{12})^3)$

<u>Month 24 (2 years)</u>

$250(1+\frac{12.04}{12}+(\frac{12.04}{12})^2+(\frac{12.04}{12})^3+...+(\frac{12.04}{12})^{24})$

The sum

$1+\frac{12.04}{12}+(\frac{12.04}{12})^2+(\frac{12.04}{12})^3+...+(\frac{12.04}{12})^{24}$

is the sum of the first 24 terms of a geometric sequence with common ratio $\frac{12.04}{12}$ which is

$\frac{1-(12.04/12)^{25}}{1-(12.04/12)}=26.02603071$

so, after 2 years the saving balance is

250*26.02603071 = 6,506.50767= $6,506.51 rounded to the nearest cent.
