Answer :

Depends on the rate compound interest is accrued. See answers.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need the compound interest formula which is:

A = P (1+\frac{r}{n} )^{nt}

A =  final amount

P =  initial principal balance

r =  interest rate

n =  number of times interest applied per time period

t =  number of time periods elapsed

It doesn't say how frequently the interest is compounded, so we will do monthly, quarterly, and yearly.

MONTHLY

So we know the car costs $25,480 and he made a down payment of $10,000. By subtracting the down payment from the purchase price we find the loan amount.

$25,480 - $10,000 = $15,480

P = 15,480

r = 4.75% = .0475

n = 12  (12 months in a year)

t = 2  

Plug everything into the compound interest formula.

A = P (1+\frac{r}{n} )^{nt}

A = 15480(1+\frac{.0475}{12})^{12*2}

A = 15480(1+\frac{.0475}{12})^{24}

A = 15480(1+.00396)^{24}

A = 15480(1.00396)^{24}

A = 15480*1.0992

A = $17016.14

Mr. Lee paid $17,016.14 when the bill came due at 2 years with interest compounded monthly.

QUARTERLY

P = 15,480

r = 4.75% = .0475

n = 4  (4 quarters in a year)

t = 2  

A = P (1+\frac{r}{n} )^{nt}

A = 15480(1+\frac{.0475}{4})^{4*2}

A = 15480(1+\frac{.0475}{4})^{8}

A = 15480(1+.0119})^{8}

A = 15480(1.0119)^{8}

A = 15480*1.099

A = 15480(1.099)

A = 17013.20

Mr. Lee paid $17,013.20 when the bill came due at 2 years with interest compounded quarterly.

YEARLY

P = 15,480

r = 4.75% = .0475

n = 1  

t = 2  

A = P (1+\frac{r}{n} )^{nt}

A = 15480(1+\frac{.0475}{1})^{1*2}

A = 15480(1+\frac{.0475}{12})^{2}

A = 15480(1+.0475})^{2}

A = 15480(1.0475)^{2}

A = 15480*1.0973

A = 16985.53

Mr. Lee paid $16,985.53  when the bill came due at 2 years with interest compounded yearly.

5/7^3 = 5(7^x)<br> Thank you for helping!!
SIZIF [17.4K]

When solving this equation you get x = -3.

To solve this, simply follow the order of operations for solving.

\frac{5}{7^{3}}  = 5(7^{x} ) ----> start by dividing both sides by 5

\frac{1}{7^{3}}  = (7^{x} ) -----> Now you can transform the front side of the equation to use negative exponents.

7^{-3} = 7^{x}

Since both x and -3 are the powers of x, we can eliminate the 7 and just make the exponents equal.

-3 = x
