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

the sum of the interior angle in a polygon is 40,500° what is the number of sides in the regular polygon

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

227 sides

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the interior angles of a convex polygon is S=180(n-2) where n is the number of sides. If S=40500, then we have our equation 40500=180(n-2) and we can solve for n:

40500 = 180(n-2)

225 = n-2

227 = n

Therefore, the number of sides in the regular polygon is 227.

Mary places a miniature car onto a track with launchers. The speed of the car is recorded every foot. Some of the data is shown

Arada [10]

Answer:

5 or less

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed increased linearly with distance, but is not decreasing linearly with distance. This suggests the track has an unknown shape, so prediction of car behavior is a guess, at best.

If the car continues to decrease its speed at 3 units per unit distance, then the final 3 units of speed will decrease to 0 in one additional unit of distance. That is, the car will stop at a distance of 5 units.

___

Since the car has be decreasing its speed at an increasing rate with respect to distance, very possibly the car will stop before it reaches distance unit 5.

Since we don't know the track shape, it seems possible the car may not stop until some large unknown number of distance units, say 10 or 1000.
