The answer is B. Hard to explain but it is B.
The correct answer is Zero
54, 36, 24 are the 1st 3 element of a geometric progression with 2/3 as a common ratio: PROOF:
the 1st term is 54, (a₁= 54) the 2nd term a₂ = 24, then
(a₂ = a₁.r) or 36 = 54.r → r= 36/54 = 2/3. Same logique for the 3rd term.
So 2/3 is common ratio. We know that :U(n) = a.(r)ⁿ⁻¹. Then if a =54 and r = x (given by the problem), then f(x) = 54.xⁿ⁻¹
n, being the rank of any element of this geometric progression
Answer:
The elevator is now on the 2nd floor.
Step-by-step explanation:
15 - 18 = -3
-3 + 5 = 2
1.) The answer is 825.75 (multiply the given tax rates to the gross pay)
2,785 x 13% federal taxes = 362.05
2,785 x 9% state tax = 250.65
2,785 x 7.65% FICA = <u>213.05
</u> 825.75
<u>
</u>2.) The answer is 288.60 (multiply the interest rate to the balance, no need to add a late payment fee since they paid on 6/1, not after)
2,748.56 x 10.5% = 288.60
3.) The answer is 182.13 (multiply the APR to the original purchase price, no need to add the sales tax)
<u /> 1,500 x 11.75% = 182.13
4.) The answer is 371.92 (deduct the reward to the interest)
Interest : 2,975.34 x 13.5% = 401.67
Reward : 2,975.34 x 1% = <u> 29.75</u>
371.92
5.) The answer is 1,339.13 (deduct the interest to the monthly payment)
Monthly payment : 2,236.00
Monthly interest : <u> 896.87</u> [(231,450 x 4.65%) / 12 months]
<u /> 1,339.13
Hope this helps! :)
