A businesswoman wants to determine the difference between the costs of owning and leasing an automobile. She can lease a car for

​$480 a per month​ (on an annual​ basis). Under this​ plan, the cost per mile is ​$0.04. If she were to purchase the​ car, the fixed annual expense would be ​$4800​, and other costs would amount to ​$0.08 per mile. What is the least number of miles she would have to drive per year to make leasing no more expensive than​ purchasing?

Answer:

$24,000

Explanation:

For computing the least number of miles first we need to calculate the total annual costs for both the plans that are shown below:

For leasing: 

Fixed monthly cost = $480

So, yearly cost = $480 ×  12 = $5,760

Cost per mile = $0.04

Let x is the miles driven

So, the equation would be

= $5,760 + 0.04x ........................... (1)

Now In case of purchasing:

Fixed yearly cost = $4,800

Cost per mile = 0.08

The equation would be

= $4,800 + 0.08x ......................... (2)

Now equate these equations

So,

Cost of leasing ≤ Cost of purchasing

$5,760 + 0.04x ≤ $4,800 + 0.08x

$960 ≤ 0.04x

$24,000 ≤ x

A property has sold for $185,000. The listing agreement calls for a commission of 6.5%. The listing broker and selling broker ag
pychu [463]

Answer:

First we need to find out the total commission which is 6.5%

0.065*185000=12025

Out of this the listing broker will get 50%

0.5*12025= 6012.5

Out of this the agent will get 65 percent of that

0.65*6012.5=3908.125 is the amount that the listing agent will receive from his broker.

Which of the following are true?
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

  • A. The data in D3 is skewed right.
  • B. Three quarters of the data values for D2 are greater than the median value for D1 .
  • E. At least a quarter of the data values for D3 are less than the median value for D2 .

Explanation:

A Box Plot can be interpreted as follows;

The first point on the line is the minimum value.

The first end of the box is the First Quartile of the data range.

The next line is the Median.

The last end of the box is the Third Quartile.

The last point on the line is the maximum value.

Most of D3 lies on the right side of Median so it is skewed right.

The First Quartile of D2 is more than the Median of D1 which means that 3 quarters of D2 (first quartile to the maximum value) are greater than the median of D1.

D2's Median value is greater than the Third Quartile of D3 which means that more than just a quarter of D3 falls below D2's Median so option E is correct.

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

$207,700

Explanation:

Blake's basis in his home in 2017 = purchase price + legal and administrative fees = $200,000 + ($700 + $2,000) = $202,700

Since the deck that Blake added to his home is considered an improvement that is permanent and increases the home's value, it will also increase the home's basis = $202,700 + $5,000 = $207,700
