Douglas has a credit card with an interest rate of 11.05%, compounded monthly. He used his credit card to buy a new sofa, which

cost $670 before the sales tax of 7.94%. Douglas paid off his balance by making equal monthly payments for three years. Assuming that he had no other purchases on his credit card, how much did Douglas pay in total for the sofa? (Round all dollar values to the nearest cent.)
a. $1,005.93
b. $790.20
c. $723.20
d. $852.84

This problem can be solved using the formula for the annuity. 
Principal amount = price of the sofa(1 + sales tax)
where
price of the sofa= $670
sales tax =7.94%
Principal amount = $723.2
solve for the amortization using the formula:
Amortization = Principal amount[(i(1+i)^n]/[(1+i)^n-1]
where 
i= 11.05%/12=.92%
n= 3years x 4 payments/year=36
Principal amount = $723.20
Amortization = $23.68
Get the sum of annuity
Sum of annuity=Amortization[(1+i)^n-1]/i
Sum of annuity= $852.84
The answer is letter d. Douglas paid a total of $852.84 for the sofa.

For the following hypothesis test, H0: μ ≥ 150Ha: μ &lt; 150​the test statistic a. must be positive. b. must be negative. c. can
Virty [35]

Answer:

t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}} (1)      

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".  

And since we are conducting a lower unilateral lest  then we expected that the value for the statistic would be negative. And the correct answer would be:

b. must be negative

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation      

\bar X represent the sample mean    

s represent the standard deviation for the sample      

n sample size      

\mu_o =150 represent the value that we want to test    

\alpha represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.    

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)      

p_v represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)  

State the null and alternative hypotheses.      

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to determine if the mean is lower than 150, the system of hypothesis would be:      

Null hypothesis:\mu \geq 150      

Alternative hypothesis:\mu < 150      

We don't know the population deviation, so for this case is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:      

t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}} (1)      

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".  

And since we are conducting a lower unilateral lest  then we expected that the value for the statistic would be negative. And the correct answer would be:

b. must be negative

The shorter leg of a right triangle is 14 feet less than the other leg. Find the length of the two legs of the hypotenuse is 25
irakobra [83]

Answer:

  9.233 ft, 23.233 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

If the shorter leg is x, then the longer leg is x+14 and the Pythagorean theorem tells you ...

  x^2 + (x +14)^2 = 25^2

  2x^2 +28x +196 = 625

  x^2 +14x = 214.5

  x^2 +14x +49 = 263.5

  (x +7)^2 = 263.5

  x = -7 +√263.5 ≈ 9.23268

The two leg lengths are √263.5 ± 7 feet, {9.23 ft, 23.23 ft}.
