Assuming monthly payment of $250, which implies APR=0.01*12=0.12.
If it is different, please specify.

target P=20000,
A=250
n=to be determined such that P>=target P=20000
The annuity equation with given (monthly) payment is given by
P=250(P/A,i,n)
=A((1+i)^n-1)/(i(1+i)^n)
=250(1.01^n-1)/(0.01(1.01)^n)
=25000(1.01^n-1)/(1.01^n)
Solve for n by trial and error,
Rewrite 
20000<=25000(1-1/1.01^n)
=>
1.01^n>=25000/20000=1.25
Take log on both sides,
n*log(1.01)>=log(5)
n>=log(5)/log(1.01)=161. 75
=> n=162 (next integer)
Check:
P=250(P/A,0.01,162)=250*(1.01^162-1)/(.01*1.01^162)=20012.56 ok.

What is the following quotient?
almond37 [142]

Answer:

B)  \sqrt{30}  - 3 \sqrt{2}  +  \sqrt{55}  -  \sqrt{33}  \div 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: First we have to get rid off the roots in the denominator.

To do that, we have to multiply the numerator and the denominator by the conjugate of √5 + √3.

The conjugate of √5 + √3 is √5 - √3.

Now multiply given expression with √5 - √3

(√6 + √11)     (√5 - √3)

------------- x   -----------

(√5 + √3)        (√5 - √3)

Step 2: Multiply the numerators and the denominators.

√6√5 - √6√3 +√11√5 -√11√3

------------------------------------------

(√5)^2 - (√3)^2

Now let's simplify to get the answer.

√30-√18 +√55 - √33

-----------------------------

5 - 3

= √30 -3√2 +√55                                     [√18 = √9√2 = 3√2]

--------------------------

2      

The answer is  \sqrt{30}  - 3 \sqrt{2}  +  \sqrt{55}  -  \sqrt{33}  \div 2


Thank you.

The equation of a line is y= -1/2x - 2. What is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the first line and passes thro
Fed [463]
If two line are perpendicular. The multiply of their slopes are equal to -1. 
First line's slope is: -1/2x because if the line equation is form of y=ax+b a is slope. 
Let say second line's slope is m
m.-1/2=-1  so m=2 
y=ax+b is general form of linear function/equation. (a=slope)
y=2x+b 
If this line passes through the point (2,-2),if we write -2 to y and 2 to x, the equation becomes true. 
-2=4+b
b=-6 
Thus, 
y=2x-6 is true answer.

The thumb length of fully grown females of a certain type of frog is normally distributed with a mean of 8.59 mm and a standard
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

21.77% probability that a randomly selected frog of this type has thumb length longer than 9.08 mm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 8.59, \sigma = 0.63

Calculate the probability that a randomly selected frog of this type has thumb length longer than 9.08 mm.

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 9.08. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{9.08 - 8.59}{0.63}

Z = 0.78

Z = 0.78 has a pvalue of 0.7823

1 - 0.7823 = 0.2177

21.77% probability that a randomly selected frog of this type has thumb length longer than 9.08 mm.
