Answer:
D. $2071.20
Step-by-step explanation:
The table tells you that Bob's monthly payment on a 4-year loan at 6.5% will be $23.71 per thousand borrowed. The sum of those 48 payments is ...
48 × $23.71 = $1138.08
That means, Bob pays $138.08 in total finance charge for each $1000 he borrows. He is borrowing 15 times $1000, so his total finance charge will be ...
finance charge = 15 × $138.08 = $2071.20 . . . matches choice D
We can use the fact that, for
,

Notice that
![\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}\left[\dfrac1{1-x}\right]=\dfrac1{(1-x)^2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac%7B%5Cmathrm%20d%7D%7B%5Cmathrm%20dx%7D%5Cleft%5B%5Cdfrac1%7B1-x%7D%5Cright%5D%3D%5Cdfrac1%7B%281-x%29%5E2%7D)
so that
![f(x)=\displaystyle\frac5{(1-x)^2}=5\frac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}\left[\sum_{n=0}^\infty x^n\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=f%28x%29%3D%5Cdisplaystyle%5Cfrac5%7B%281-x%29%5E2%7D%3D5%5Cfrac%7B%5Cmathrm%20d%7D%7B%5Cmathrm%20dx%7D%5Cleft%5B%5Csum_%7Bn%3D0%7D%5E%5Cinfty%20x%5En%5Cright%5D)



By the ratio test, this series converges if

so the series has radius of convergence
.
The answer is 16x^12y^4 all over 12x^10y^2
Answer:
b = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
b - 7 = 5.5 ( multiply through by 2 to clear the fraction )
b - 14 = 11 ( add 14 to both sides )
b = 25
