Answer:

$677.18

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Bill’s nominal income in 1990 = $1,009 per month

CPI value in the year 1990 = 149

CPI value in the year 2017 = 192

Now,

The Consumer price index ( CPI ) is given as :

CPI = \frac{\textup{Cost of basket in the current year}}{\textup{Cost of basket in the base year}}\times100

thus,

for the given case of year 1990

149 = \frac{\textup{1,009}}{\textup{Real income in the year 1990}}\times100

or

Real income in 1990 = \frac{\textup{1,009}}{\textup{149}}\times100

or

Real income in 1990 = $677.18

Daniel watches one hour of television for every three hours of homework he does each week. If you did 15 hours of homework last
leva [86]
Hey if you like my answer please give me the brainliest answer :)

Ok so we have a ratio of 1:3 here. (1 is for the hour of tv and 3 is for hours of homework)

3 can go into 15 (hours of homework last week) 5 times. That means we must multiply 3 by 5 to get 15 so that we can fit the ratio to last week. Because we did that, we have to multiply 1 by 5 as well.

1 × 5 = 5 hours of homework!

If you borrow $900 for 6 years at
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

$1278

Step-by-step explanation:

First you would need to find out how much the annual interest rate is so you would find out what 7% of $900 is which is 63 meaning that there is an annual fee of $63 and since it was for 6 years you would multiply $63 times 6 to get 378 and then to find the total amount you would pay you have to add the interest to what you borrowed so you would do $900 + $378

Log(x+6)-log(x-3)=1<br><br> I need to show work, please show me how
Illusion [34]

Answer:

x = 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

log(x + 6)- log(x - 3) = 1

Using the law log a - log b = log a/b:

log (x + 6)/ (x - 3) = 1

Removing logs:

(x + 6)/ (x - 3) = 10

x+ 6 = 10x - 30

9x = 36

x = 4 (answer).
