Answer: package B is the better deal.
Step-by-step explanation:
package A offers free phone and 300 minutes. it will cost 0.12 per minute for each minute over the plan time. Also, package A has a base rate of $39.95. This means that if you average 356 minutes per month in talk time, the cost using package A would be
0.12(356 - 300) + 39.95 = $46.67
package B : phone costs $10 and has 350 minutes of time and 0.08 per minute for each minute over the plan time. Also, package B has a base rate of 35.95 not including the phone. This means that if you average 356 minutes per month in talk time, the cost using package B would be
10 + 0.08(356 - 350) + 35.95 = $46.43
Therefore, package B is the better deal since it is cheaper.
Answer:
-3 + sqrt 42
-3 - sqrt42
Step-by-step explanation:
assuming you want me to factor it and then find the roots:
2x^2 +12x-66
2(x^2 + 6x-33)
Both x and y intercept equal 2 ( to find x, make y = 0 and vise versa to find y)
x-int: 4(0)+y=0
0+y= 2
y=2
y -int: 4x +0=2
4x=2
x=2
Answer:
$ 50,340.97
Step-by-step explanation:
From the above question, we can deduce that we are to find the Initial amount invested which is also called the Principal.
The formula to find Principal in a compound interest question is:
P = A / (1 + r/n)^nt
Where:
A = Total Amount obtained after invested = $80,000
r = Interest rate = 3.1% = 0.031
n = number of times interest in compounded = Quarterly = 4
t = time in years = 15
P = $80,000/(1 + 0.031/4)^4 × 15
P = $80,000/(1 +0.00775)^60
P = $ 50,340.97
Hence, James would have to invest $50,340.97 today to have $80,000 in 15 years.
