The original annual simple interest rate, rounded to two decimal places, is 3.79%

What is the formula for simple interest?

The simple interest on a loan or deposit is determined as the principal multiplied by the simple interest rate and time

I=PRT

The first loan:

P=12 850.00

R=r(assume it is r)

T=4 years

I=12 850.00*r*4

I=51400r

The second loan was taken after 14 quarters the first was taken out, which is the same as after 3.5 years, hence, the interest on the second loan is only for a half a year

P=3 273.00

R=0.5r( half of the interest on the first loan)

T=0.5 years

I=3 273.00*0.5r*0.5

I= 818.25r

Total interest=51400r+818.25r

Total interest=52218.25r

total interest paid=1 980.00

1 980.00=52218.25r

r=1 980.00/52218.25

r=3.79%

Tom pays $1506 in rent every month. This amount is $50 more than twice what his brother Arturo pays for
Talja [164]

Answer:

$3062

Step by Step Explanation:

Arturo's rent can also be written as an expression

2t + 50

This is basically showing that two of Tom's rent plus $50 gives you his brother's rent.

So 2(1506) + 50

3012 + 50

3062

Select the graph that correctly represents ƒ(x) = –2(x + 4)2 – 1.Find the equation of the parabola with its focus at (3,4) and i
IgorC [24]

Answer:

Equation of parabola:  8*(y - 2) = (x - 3)^2

or

y = (1/8)*(x - 3)^2 + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

focus at (3,4) and its directrix y = 0.

Focus equation:  (h, k + c) = (3, 4)

Directrix equation  y =  k - c = 0

so  h = 3,   k + c = 4,   k - c = 0

Solve  the system :  k + c = 4 and k - c = 0

add the equations together:     k + c + k - c = 4 + 0

2k = 4

k = 2

so   k + c = 4,    2 + c = 4,   c = 2

4c (y - k) = (x -  h)^2

4*2 *(y - 2) = (x - 3)^2

8*(y - 2) = (x - 3)^2
