When discount points are paid, the bank collects a one-time fee at closing in exchange a lower mortgage rate to be honored for the life of the loan.
The banks consider this payment to be "prepaid mortgage interest". Meanwhile, mortgage interest is tax-deductible for eligible tax-filers so, for many mortgage borrowers, there's a tax advantage to paying discount points.
This is the concept of exponential growth, To get the number of bacteria after 10 days we use the formula:
f(t)=ae^(kt)
where;
a=initial number=5000
k=constant of proportionality= 0.04
t=time=10 days
f(t)=future number
thus the number of bacteria in 10 days will be:
f(t)=5000e^(0.04*10)
f(t)=7,459.12
The answer is 7,459.12
Answer: the number of students that were surveyed is 40
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = total number of students that were surveyed about their favorite colors
1/4 of the students preferred red.
This means that the number of students that preferred red is 1/4 × x = x/4
1/8 of the students preferred blue.
This means that the number of students that preferred blue is 1/8 × x = x/8
The remaining number of students will be the total number of students - the sum of the number of students that preferred red and the number of students that preferred blue. It becomes
x - (x/4 + x/8) = x - 3x/8 = 5x/8
3/5 of the remaining students were for green. This means that the number of students that preferred green is 3/5 × 5x/8 = 3x/8
if 15 students prefer green, then
3x/8 = 15
3x = 120
x = 120/3 = 40 students
Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
11x - 34 and 7x - 2 are vertical angles and congruent, thus
11x - 34 = 7x - 2 ( subtract 7x from both sides )
4x - 34 = - 2 ( add 34 to both sides )
4x = 32 ( divide both sides by 4 )
x = 8
-----------------------
11x - 34 = 11(8) - 34 = 88 - 34 = 54
18y and 11x - 34 are adjacent angles and supplementary , thus
18y + 54 = 180 ( subtract 54 from both sides )
18y = 126 ( divide both sides by 18 )
y = 7
