Answer:

$318,972.30

Step-by-step explanation:

The total of 360 payments will be $318,972.30.

___

A financial calculator or app is useful for answering questions like this. Most spreadsheets have functions that will serve the same purpose.

_____

You may be given a formula for computing the monthly payment (A) from the principal (P), the annual interest rate (r) and the number of years (t). It might look like this:

A = P·(r/12)/(1 -(1 +r/12)^(-12·t))

Filling in the given numbers, you get ...

A = 154,850·(0.0557/12)/(1 -(1 +0.0557/12)^-360) ≈ 886.034154

Then the value of 360 such payments is ...

P+I = 360·886.034154 ≈ 318,972.30

___

In practice, the final payment will be different from the rest, to make up for the fact that the value of each payment was rounded down to the nearest cent. Rather than try to figure the amount of that payment, we have used a more precise value for the monthly payment and have assumed that doing so will give approximately the same total as the sequence of actual payments. (Our number here is about $2.34 low.)

Answer:

51

Step-by-step explanation:

11+(-7)^2-9 - original

11+49-9 - square the -7, since its in brackets the negative applies too and a negative x a negative = positive, so it ends up as 7x7+49

60-9 - add both positives 11+49=60

51 - subtract 9 from 60, 60-9=51

Lucy borrowed the most books in August (19 is the highest number in the graph.) There are 6 months in which she borrowed fewer than 10 books (February, May, June, July, November, December.)
Tip: do not click on the links, it’s a scam. Also an easier way to get answers quicker is post the picture and then briefly explain the post and not the entire question. :) I hope that helps. Have a great day!

tim spent 24 at the grocery store this was six dollars less than two timeswhat he spent at the game store how much did he spend
Svetlanka [38]
Money spent at grocery store = x, money spent at game store = y
x = 24
x = 2y - 6

24 = 2y - 6
24 + 6 = 2y
30 = 2y
30/2 = y
15 = y <=== spent 15 at game store

Write an equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the given point and has the given slope. (3, –8); m = –5
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

y+8=-5(x-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for point-slope form is y-y1=m(x-x1)

The points for (x1, y1) are (3, -8), meaning that 3 is x1 and -8 is y1.

So, start by writing your equation like this: y--8=m(x-3)

For the equation y--8=m(x-3), the y--8 will change to a + sign because two negatives make a positive, right? So, the equation should now look like this: y+8=m(x-3).

We know that the slope (m) is -5. Plug that into the equation to get this: y+8=-5(x-3)

And there you have it!! The equation is now in point-slope form!!

y+8=-5(x-3) is the final answer!!

Hope that helps you!! Please give me brainliest!!
