This question can be approached using the present value of annuity formula. The present value of annuity is given by PV=P\left( \frac{1-\left(1+ \frac{r}{t} \right)^{-nt}}{ \frac{r}{t} } \right), where: PV is the present value/amount of the loan, P is the periodic (monthly in this case) payment, r is the APR, t is the number of payments in one year and n is the number of years.

Given that the<span> financing is for a new road bike of $2,500 and that the bike shop offers a 13.5% APR for a 24 month loan.

Thus, PV = $2,500; r = 13.5% = 0.135; t = 12 payments (since payment is made monthly); n = 2 years (i.e. 24 months)

Thus,

</span>2500=P\left( \frac{1-\left(1+ \frac{0.135}{12} \right)^{-2\times12}}{ \frac{0.135}{12} } \right) \\  \\ =P\left( \frac{1-\left(1+ 0.01125 \right)^{-24}}{ 0.01125 } \right)=P\left( \frac{1-\left(1.01125 \right)^{-24}}{ 0.01125 } \right) \\  \\ =P\left( \frac{1-0.764531}{ 0.01125 } \right)=P\left( \frac{0.235469}{ 0.01125 } \right)=20.9306P \\  \\ \Rightarrow P= \frac{2500}{20.9306} =119.44
<span>
Therefore, his monthly payment is $119.44</span>

Write a system of equations to describe the situation below, solve using any method, and fill in the blanks.
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Adults $ 17

Students: $8

Step-by-step explanation:

Adults: x

Students: y

a) 25x + 31y = 673

b) 27x +31y = 707

Elimination:

a) -1(25x + 31y = 673) = -25 -31y = -673

a + b

= (-25 -31y = -673) + (27x + 31y = 707)

= 2x = 34

x = 34/2

x = 17

Substitution a or b:

a) 25(17) + 31y = 673

425 + 31y = 673

31y = 673 - 425

31y = 248

y = 248/31

y = 8

 N: number of containers.
 We have then:
 N = (240) / (1/4)
 N = 960 containers
 Answer:
 
kat will need:
 
N = 960 containers
