Merina is scheduled to make two loan payments to Bradford in the amount of $1,000 each, two months and nine months from now. Mer

ina doesn't think she can make those payments and offers Bradford an alternative plan where she will pay two equal amounts seven months from now followed by another equal payment seven months later. Bradford determines that 8.5% is a fair interest rate. Using the second unknown equal payment as your focal date, what are the equal payments?

well, we're assuming all along that Merina owes Bradford $2000, because in the 1st scenario, she was going to pay twice $1000.

on the 2nd scenario, she'll be paying the same $2000 but split 7 months from now and then 7 months later, same 2000 bucks, at which point Bradford applied 8.5% interest.

using those assumptions, since the wording is not quite clear, we can say that Merina is simply paying 2000 bucks plus the 8.5%

\begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{a\% of b}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ \left( \cfrac{a}{100} \right)\cdot b \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}~\hspace{5em}\stackrel{\textit{8.5\% of 2000}}{\left( \cfrac{8.5}{100} \right)2000}\implies 170 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \cfrac{\stackrel{principal}{2000}~~ + ~~\stackrel{interest}{170}}{2}\implies \stackrel{\textit{two equal payments of}}{1085}

The measures of two sides of a triangle are 4in and 13in. Find all possible values that the third side of this triangle can be?
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

9 < x < 17 is the possible length of the third side of a triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Triangle Inequality theorem defines that if we are given two sides of a triangle, the sum of any two given sides of a triangle must be greater than the measure of the 3rd side.

Given the two sides of the triangle

  • 4 in
  • 13 in

Let 'x' be the length of 3rd size.

According to the Triangle Inequality theorem,

The difference of two sides < x < The sum of two sides

13 - 4 < x < 13+4

9 < x < 17

Therefore, 9 < x < 17 is the possible length of the third side of a triangle.

Find the Slope and Y intercept 18x+4y=112
Alla [95]
Using the formula y=mx+b, you can simplify the equation to y=-4.5x+28 which means that the slope (m) equals -4.5 and the y-intercept (b) equals 28.

A number line goes from negative 5 to positive 5. Point D is at negative 4 and point E is at positive 5. A line is drawn from po
Ronch [10]

<em>Directed numbers</em> are numbers that have either a <u>positive</u> or <u>negative </u>sign, which can be shown on a <em>number line</em>. Therefore, point F is Fifteen-halves of line <em>segment</em> DE.

A <u>number line</u> is a system that can show the positions of <em>positive</em> or <em>negative</em> numbers. It has its <em>ends</em> ranging from <em>negative infinity</em> to <em>positive infinity</em>. Thus any <em>directed</em> number can be located on the line.

Directed numbers are numbers with either a <u>negative</u> or <u>positive </u>sign, which shows their direction with respect to the <em>number line.</em>

In the given question, the <u>distance</u> between points D and E is <em>9 units</em>. So that <em>dividing</em> 9 units in the ratio of 5 to 6, we have;

\frac{5}{6} x 9   = \frac{45}{6}

          = \frac{15}{2}

Therefore, the <em>location</em> of point F, which <u>partitions</u> the directed line segment from d to E into a 5:6 ratio is    \frac{15}{2}. Thus the<em> answer</em> is <u>Fifteen-halves.</u>

alukav5142 [94]

Answer: x + 100

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are told that Bobbie has 100 more followers than Debora and x is used to represent the number of followers that Debora has.

The expression that shows the number of followers Bobbie has will be the number of followers that Debora has plus 100. This will be :

= x + 100
