Eight less than ten times a number is 82

Eight less than ten is another way of saying 10-8. So it is saying 2 times a number is 82. This can be represented as 2x=82. Divide both sides by 2 to get x=41. So the "number" is 41.

Break it down
- Ten times a number --> 10n
- Eight less --> - 8

**So 10n - 8 = 82
<em>Add 8 to both sides</em>
10n = 90
<em>Divide 10 on each side</em>
n = 10

anzhelika [568]

Amount Financed(P) = $ 128,000

Time = 15 year

Rate of interest= 5.05%

Amount after 15 years translates to,

${\text{Using the formula}} P(1+\frac{R}{100})^n\\\\ 128,000(1 +\frac{5.05}{100})^{15}\\\\ =128,000 \times (1.0505)^{15}\\\\=128,000 \times 2.0938\\\\=268,009.890$

Rose and Andrew has taken four points to lower their rate to 4.81% .

Amount after 15 years translates to, if rate of interest is 4.83 %

${\text{Using the formula}} P(1+\frac{R}{100})^n\\\\ 128,000(1 +\frac{4.83}{100})^{15}\\\\ =128,000 \times (1.0483)^{15}\\\\=128,000 \times 2.0290\\\\=259713.0404$
