Answer:

En 5 horas se habrá enterado todo el pueblo.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sabemos que en un pueblo 5 personas escucharon una noticia.

Una hora más tarde, cada una de ellas le contó la noticia a otras 5.

Luego, éstas contaron la noticia a otras 5 y así sucesivamente.

Nadie cuenta ni escucha la noticia más de una vez y en ese pueblo hay un poco más de 19000 habitantes.

La ecuación a desarrollar para resolver el problema es la siguiente :

Comenzamos con 5 personas que escucharon la noticia a la ''hora 0''.

Una hora más tarde, cada una de ellas le contó a 5 personas, es decir , pasada la primera hora tendremos :

5+5^{2}=30 (I)

Las 5 personas originales de la ''hora 0'' más 25 personas que se enteraron pasada la primera hora. La ecuación que planteamos es la siguiente :

5^{1}+5^{2}+5^{3}+...+5^{x}>19000 (II)

Buscamos el valor de x que satisface la ecuación (II).

Probando y realizando las sumas encontramos que :

5^{1}+5^{2}+5^{3}+5^{4}+5^{5}+5^{6}>19000

19530>19000

El valor de x que satisface (II) es x=6.

Para hallar el número de horas nos fijamos que en (I) el valor del mayor exponente del 5 es el número 2. Para ese valor 2, el tiempo que pasó es una hora.

Entonces para nuestro x=6, el número de horas que pasaron son 5 horas (1 menos que el valor de x)

Todo el pueblo se habrá enterado en 5 horas de la noticia.

Answer:

$393.75

$2,446.88

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take this problem one step at a time. First let's compute for the total price after the sales tax has been added.

Sales tax = 8.75% or 0.0875

Original Price = $4,500

The sales tax is computed by multiplying the total to the sales tax rate.

4,500 x 0.0875 = $393.75

$393.75 is the total sales tax that Brenton will pay.

Now to find the total price with the sales tax included, we simply add the original price and the sales tax value together.

4,500 + 393.75 = $4,893.75

Now that we have the total overall price, we can then compute for how much the 50% down payment Brenton has made.

Down Payment = 50% or 0.5

Overall Price = $4,893.75

We simply multiply both the down payment and the overall price to find how much Brenton has paid.

4,893.75 x 0.5 = $2,446.88

Now that we know how much Brenton paid, we also now know how much Brenton financed by subtracting the overall price to his down payment.

4,893.75 - 2,446.88 = $2,446.88

Brenton finance a total amount of $2,446.88.
