J + t = 30
j = 2t - 3

2t - 3 + t = 30
3t - 3 = 30
3t = 30 + 3
3t = 33
t = 33/3
t = 11 <=== tritt's age is 11

j = 2t - 3
j = 2(11) - 3
j = 22 - 3
j = 19 <== jan's age is 19

The following table shows a portion of a four-year amortization schedule. A 4-year amortization schedule. The loan amount or pri

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

Option c. $ 9,543.97

Explanation:

The row for month 25 shows that after twenty-five payments the balance of the loan is $10,356.03

You are told that the loan amount or principal is $ 19,900.

From those two data, you can calculate how much of the principal has been paid off after 25 months, because the amount paid off is equal to the loan less the balance after 25 payments:

Principal paid off = $ 19,900 - $ 10,356.03 = $9,543.97

A flying carpet flies 2.4 miles with the wind in the same amount of time it flies 1.4 miles against the wind. The wind speed is

Ainat [17]

Answer:

$15.2~mph$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the time flown by the flying carpet be $t$ . Then, we have that $(2.4)/t=(1.4)/t+2*4$ .

We multiply both sides of the equation by $t$ to get $2.4=1.4+8t$ .

We subtract $1.4$ from both sides to get $1=8t$ .

We divide both sides of the equation by $t=1/8$ .

We know that the speed of the flying carpet in still wind is the average of the rates of the speed of the flying carpet with the wind and against the wind.

The speed with wind is $(2.4)/(1/8)=19.2$ mph.
