If we notice, the decrease in payment after 3 and 5 months, it is a multiple of 150.

So, the equation that models balance b after m months is:

b = 1800 - 150m

Here, - 150 is the slope and it indicates the amount being decreased every month.

Answer:

balance (b) = 1800 - 150m, where "m" is the number of months.

Step-by-step explanation:

Zachary purchased a computer for 1800 on a payment plan.

After 3 months, his balance = 1350

Reduced amount = 1800 - 1350 = 450

So, 1 month payment = 450 ÷ 3 = 150

After 5 months, his balance = 1050

The reduced amount = 1800 - 1050 = 750

So, 1 month payment = 750 ÷ 5 = 150

Therefore, the rate of change = -150. It is negative because the amount getting reduced.

Therefore, the model is

balance (b) = 1800 - 150m, where "m" is the number of months.

Can anyone answer this question please<br> 6[y-2]/7-12=2[y-7]/3
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

y =47.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

First eliminate the fractions by multiplying through by the LCM of 7 and 3 which is 21:

21* 6[y-2]/7-21*12 = 21*2[y-7]/3

18(y - 2) - 252 = 14(y - 7)

18y -36 - 252 = 14y - 98

18y - 14y = -98 + 36 + 252

4y = 190

y = 190/4

y = 47.5.

1. Go on a vacation that costs $3,500 
Paying off money for buying a car will not decrease your net worth as you get the car as assets for the money you use. But the depreciates 20% will cause you to lose $3,000 assets. Assuming you are not buying assets at all, go on a vacation that costs $3,500 will increase liability without any effect on assets. Paying up bills will decrease your asset but it also decreases your liability so the net worth wouldn't change. 

2. 1) higher 2) lower
Subprime lending is lending money to people with a low credit score that was not really fit for the credit. This means the risk of getting the money back would be higher than prime lending. Since the risk of losing the money is higher, the interest should be higher than prime lending.

3. $200,000
The house price is $250k and the buyer put 20% down which is; 20%*$250k= $50k
Then the rest of the money that needs to be paid by the mortgage would be: $250k-$50k=$200k

4. Lower, Increase
In variable rate loans, the interest will be adjusted by the market. That means the rates will be unpredictable since it was based on the condition of the market. It will be safer for the creditor since he/she will absolutely get the revenue no matter how the market goes. This change is a bit dangerous for the borrower because the number of rates can increase dramatically. 

5. Higher, lower
When you pay 30 years mortgage, the total loan is divided by 30 years which was 2 times more than 15 years. Excluding the rates, you can estimate that the 15 years mortgage payment will be twice than 30years mortgage. The total cost would also be lower since the interest rate is applied for 15 years, about half than 30 years.

6. Negative $3,500
Net worth is assets minus liability.
The list of the assets would be: 
$500 in short-term savings
$5,000 in her retirement savings account
Total assets= $500+$5,000= $5,500

The list of liability would be:
$1,500 in credit card debt
student loan debt of $7,500

Total liability= $1,500+ $7,500= $9,000Net worth= $5,500- $9,000= - $3,500

Se vendieron un total de 430 boletos para la obra de teatro escolar. Los boletos eran o de adulto o de estudiante. Se vendieron
BartSMP [9]

Resolviendo un sistema de ecuaciones, veremos que se vendieron 250 boletos de adulto.

<h3>¿Cuántos boletos de adulto fueron vendidos?</h3>

Definamos las variables:

  • x = boletos de adulto vendidos.
  • y = boletos de estudiantes vendidos.

Se vendieron un total de 430 boletos, entonces:

x + y = 430

Y se vendieron 70 boletos de estudiante menos que boletos de adulto:

y = x - 70

Tenemos el sistema de ecuaciones:

x + y = 430

y = x - 70

Para resolverlo, podemos reemplazar la segunda ecuación en la primera:

x + y = 430

x + (x - 70) = 430

2x = 430 + 70 = 500

x = 500/2 = 250

Se vendieron 250 boletos de adulto.

If 2.29 x 19.79 = 45.3191, then without actual multiplication the value of 0.0229 x 1979 is?
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

45.3191

Step-by-step explanation:

0.0229 is 100 times smaller that 2.29 but 1979 is 100 times greater than 19.79. Since they cancel each other out, the answer remains the same.
