Now, to find 'x' you will apply the Null Factor Law. This means you will now let 'x' = 0, and simply move the -2 over to the other side to find your answer. Note: since we are using a perfect square, x will only have one value since there is only one answer (x-2) in the brackets, meaning in this case we can ignore the exponent (as the answers will be the same). If there was more than one answer in the bracket (e.g. (x-4) and (x-6)), then we would apply Null Factor Law to both brackets and solve for x.
(x−2)=5
x=5+2
x=7
Step-by-step explanation:
5+6x=2x-7
We simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand
5+6x=2x-7
We move all terms containing x to the left and all other terms to the right.
+6x-2x=-7-5
We simplify left and right side of the equation.
+4x=-12
We divide both sides of the equation by 4 to get x.
x=-3
We know that we have to m<span>ake a down payment of $1500 and finance the rest of $20000 at a 1.9% interest rate, making equal monthly payments for 5 years. Our first step to solve this problem would be to convert 5 years into months.
1 year = 12 months
12 * 5 = 60 months
Therefore, in 5 years there are 60 months.
Now lets solve this problem step by step.
Subtract the down payment from $20,000
</span>$20000-$1500=$18500
Multiply the remaining number by the interest rate.
$18500 *1.9 = $35150
Divide 35150 by number of months in 5 years (60)
$35150 / 60 = $585
<span> Therefore, you have to pay $585 per month.</span>
