Answer: The interest that she will pay for the loan is $7,200.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to solve this problem we have to apply the simple interest formula:

A= P (1+rt)

Where:

A = amount

P= principal= $15000

r= interest rate = 8% =0.08( decimal form)

t = time =6 years

So, with the information given:

A= $15,000 (1 + 0.08x6)

A= 15,000 x 1.48

A = 22,200

Finally we subtract the principla to the amount, to obtain the interest paid:

22,200-15,000= 7,200

The interest that she will pay for the loan is $7,200.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

given

$\sum\limits^\infty_{n=3}\frac{6}{n^2-1}=\sum\limits^\infty_{n=3}\frac{6}{(n-1)(n+1)}\\\\=\sum\limits^\infty_{n=3}\frac{6}{2}(\frac{1}{n-1}-\frac{1}{n+1})\\\\=\frac{6}{2}\sum\limits^\infty_{n=3}(\frac{1}{n-1}-\frac{1}{n+1})\\\\=3[(\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{4})+(\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{5})+(\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{6})+(\frac{1}{5}-\frac{1}{7})+...]\\\\=3[\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{3}]=3[\frac{3+2}{6}]=3[\frac{5}{6}]\\\\=\frac{15}{6}=\frac{5}{3}$

1.94x - 10/8x + 4.32 = [2(1.15x+8.5)]

kipiarov [429]

$1,94x-\frac{10}{8}x+4,32=[2(1,15x+8,5)]\\\\
1,94x-1,25x+4,32=2,3x+17\\\\
0,69x+4,32=2,3x+17\ \ \ |Subtract\ 2,3x\\\\
-1,61x+4,32=17\ \ \ |Subtract\ 4,32\\\\
-1,61x=12,68\ \ \ |Divide\ by\ -1,61\\\\\boxed{x\approx7,9}

What is the difference between explicit and recursive sequences ?

Anna71 [15]

An explicit formula for a sequence allows you to find the value of any term in the sequence. A recursive formula for a sequence allows you to find the value of the nth term in the sequence if you know the value of the (n-1)th term in the sequence.
