Answer:

  a) 30 yr: $1597.75; 25 yr: $1773.75

  b) $43065.00

Step-by-step explanation:

The monthly payment for each loan can be found using the amortization formula, or a spreadsheet or calculator. The shorter 25-year loan has fewer and larger payments, but the net result is less interest paid.

<h3>a)</h3>

The attached calculator shows the monthly payments to be ...

  30 year loan: $1597.75 monthly

  25 year loan: $1773.75 monthly

<h3>b)</h3>

The number of payments is the product of 12 payments per year and the number of years. The total repaid is the monthly payment times the number of payments.

The difference in amounts repaid is the difference in interest charged.

  360×1597.75 -300×1773.75 = $43065 . . . . savings using 25-year loan

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

The monthly payment on a loan of principal P at annual rate r for t years is ...

  A = P(r/12)/(1 -(1 +r/12)^(-12t))

Some calculators and all spreadsheets have built-in functions for calculating this amount.

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

  17°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the measure of the angle.

  (90 -x) = 5 + 4x . . . . the complement is 5° more than 4 times the angle

  85 = 5x . . . . . . . . . . add x-5 to both sides

The measure of the angle is 17°.
