The total amount Ernest owes the bank after 9 months is $1,225.00

How many months of interest would be paid?

The fact the loan was taken for nine months means that the borrower, Ernest needs to pay interest for nine months, in other words, we would time-apportion the annual interest of 30% to determine the 9-month interest as shown below:

9-month interest rate=30%*9/12

9-month interest rate=22.50%

The amount Ernest is owing the bank is the principal borrowed plus the interest for 9 months as computed below:

total amount owed after 9 months=$1000*(1+22.50%)

total amount owed after 9 months=$1000*1.2250

total amount owed after 9 months=$1,225.00

Simplify the expression state any excluded values 2a^2-4a+2 --------------- 3a^2-3

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

The simplified form is $\dfrac{2(x-1)}{3(x+1)}$ .

$x =1$ is the excluded value for the given expression.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The expression given is:

$\dfrac{2a^2-4a+2}{3a^2-3}$

Let us simplify the numerator and denominator separately.

The numerator is given as $2a^2-4a+2$

2 is a common factor in all the three terms. So, we factor it out. This gives,

$=2(a^2-2a+1)$

Now, $a^2-2a+1=(a-1)(a-1)$

Therefore, the numerator becomes $2(a-1)(a-1)$

The denominator is given as: $3a^2-3$

Factoring out 3, we get

$3(a^2-1)$

Now, $a^2-1$ is of the form $a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)$

So, $a^2-1=(a-1)(a+1)$

Therefore, the denominator becomes $3(a-1)(a+1)$

Now, the given expression is simplified to:

$\frac{2a^2-4a+2}{3a^2-3}=\frac{2(x-1)(x-1)}{3(x-1)(x+1)}$

There is $(x-1)$ in the numerator and denominator. We can cancel them only if $x\ne1$ as for $x=1$ , the given expression is undefined.

Now, cancelling the like terms considering $x\ne1$ , we get:

$\dfrac{2a^2-4a+2}{3a^2-3}=\dfrac{2(x-1)}{3(x+1)}$

Therefore, the simplified form is $\dfrac{2(x-1)}{3(x+1)}$

The simplification is true only if $x\ne1$ . So, $x =1$ is the excluded value for the given expression.

Simple geometry please help Find KL. Round to the nearest hundredth.

vivado [14]

Answer:

KL ≈ 1.94

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the cosine ratio in the right triangle

cos48° = $\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{JL}{KL}$ = $\frac{1.3}{KL}$ ( multiply both sides by KL )

KL × cos48° = 1.3 ( divide both sides by cos48° )

KL = $\frac{1.3}{cos48}$ ≈ 1.94 ( to the nearest hundredth )
