Emily wants to buy a car. She pays a deposit equal to 20% of the cost of the car. She will pay the balance in 8 equal payments o

olga55 [171]

Answer: the cost of the car is $54600

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of the car.

She pays a deposit equal to 20% of the cost of the car. This means that the amount of money that she paid as deposit would be

20/100 × x = 0.2 × x = 0.2x

The remaining balance would be

x - 0.2x = 0.8x

She will pay the balance in 8 equal payments of $5460 each month. This means that

0.8x/8 = 5460

0.1x = 5460

Dividing the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation by 0.1, it becomes

0.1x/0.1 = 5460/0.1

x = 54600

Which is the solution set to the inequality (4x-3)(2x-1)&gt=0?

Serjik [45]

(4x - 3)(2x - 1) ≥ 0

First, find the zeros:

4x - 3 = 0 2x - 1 = 0

x = $\frac{3}{4}$ x = $\frac{1}{2}$

Next, plot these points and choose test points on the outside and between the zeros:

←-------0------ $\frac{1}{2}$ ------ $\frac{5}{8}$ ------ $\frac{3}{4}$ ------1------→

Lastly, plug in the test points and look for a positive result (since it is greater than 0).

Test Point 0: [4(0) - 3][2(0) - 1] = ( - )( - ) = + THIS WORKS!

Test Point $\frac{5}{8}$ : [4( $\frac{5}{8}$ ) - 3][2( $\frac{5}{8}$ ) - 1] = ( - )( + ) = - <em>This does NOT work</em>

Test Point 1: [4(1) - 3][2(1) - 1] = ( + )( + ) = + THIS WORKS!

Answer: x ≤ $\frac{1}{2}$ or x ≥ $\frac{3}{4}$

Interval Notation: (-∞, $\frac{1}{2}$ ] U [ $\frac{3}{4}$ , ∞)

Graph: ←------ $\frac{1}{2}$ $\frac{3}{4}$ --------→
