Given:
Future Value = $75,210
term = 8 years
rate = 8.5%
Initial loan = ?

In this case, we need to find the present value of the loan. Compounded means that even the interest has an interest.

PV = FV / (1 + i)^n

PV = 75,210 / (1 + 0.085)⁸

PV = 75,210 / (1.085)⁸

PV = 75,210 / 1.9206

PV = 39,159.64

Initial loan is $39,159.64
total interest is $75,210 - 39,159.64 = $36,050.36

True or false: Every sequence is either arithmetic or geometric. If this is true, explain. If false,
tiny-mole [99]

In an arithmetic sequence, the difference between consecutive terms is constant. In formulas, there exists a number r such that

a_{n+1}-a_n=r\quad \forall n\geq 1

In an geometric sequence, the ratio between consecutive terms is constant. In formulas, there exists a number r such that

\dfrac{a_{n+1}}{a_n}=r\quad \forall n\geq 1

So, there exists infinite sequences that are not arithmetic nor geometric. Simply choose a sequence where neither the difference nor the ratio between consecutive terms is constant.

For example, any sequence starting with

1, 15, -3,\ldots

Won't be arithmetic nor geometric. It's not arithmetic (no matter how you continue it, indefinitely), because the difference between the first two numbers is 14, and between the second and the third is -18, and thus it's not constant. It's not geometric either, because the ratio between the first two numbers is 15, and between the second and the third is -1/5, and thus it's not constant.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau (2016), a substantial pay gap still exists. The average American man, with an advanced colle
Leokris [45]

Answer:

The difference in earnings, over a 30-year career, for men vs women, is $1,200,150

Step-by-step explanation:

Per year.

The average man earns $90,761.

The average woman earns $50,756

So, per year, the difference is:

90,761 - 50,756 = 40,005

Over 30 years:

30*40,005 = 1,200,150

The difference in earnings, over a 30-year career, for men vs women, is $1,200,150
