Answer:the company bought 12 computers and 4 printers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of computers that the company bought.

Let y represent the number of printers that the company bought.

The company buys a total of 16 machines. It means that

x + y = 16

Each computer costs $550 and each printer costs $390. If the company spends $8160 for all the computers and printers that was bought, it means that

550x + 390y = 8160 - - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 16 - y into equation 1, it becomes

550(16 - y) + 390y = 8160

8800 - 550y + 390y = 8160

- 550y + 390y = 8160 - 8800

- 160y = - 640

y = - 640/ - 160

y = 4

Substituting y = 4 into x = 16 - y, it becomes

x = 16 - 4

x = 12

11. Mr Lee bought a second hand car for

Marrrta [24]

Answer :

Depends on the rate compound interest is accrued. See answers.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need the compound interest formula which is:

$A = P (1+\frac{r}{n} )^{nt}$

A = final amount

P = initial principal balance

r = interest rate

n = number of times interest applied per time period

t = number of time periods elapsed

It doesn't say how frequently the interest is compounded, so we will do monthly, quarterly, and yearly.

MONTHLY

So we know the car costs $25,480 and he made a down payment of $10,000. By subtracting the down payment from the purchase price we find the loan amount.

$25,480 - $10,000 = $15,480

P = 15,480

r = 4.75% = .0475

n = 12 (12 months in a year)

t = 2

Plug everything into the compound interest formula.

$A = P (1+\frac{r}{n} )^{nt}$

$A = 15480(1+\frac{.0475}{12})^{12*2}$

$A = 15480(1+\frac{.0475}{12})^{24}$

$A = 15480(1+.00396)^{24}$

$A = 15480(1.00396)^{24}$

$A = 15480*1.0992$

$A = $17016.14$

Mr. Lee paid $17,016.14 when the bill came due at 2 years with interest compounded monthly.

QUARTERLY

P = 15,480

r = 4.75% = .0475

n = 4 (4 quarters in a year)

t = 2

$A = P (1+\frac{r}{n} )^{nt}$

$A = 15480(1+\frac{.0475}{4})^{4*2}$

$A = 15480(1+\frac{.0475}{4})^{8}$

$A = 15480(1+.0119})^{8}$

$A = 15480(1.0119)^{8}$

$A = 15480*1.099$

$A = 15480(1.099)$

$A = 17013.20$

Mr. Lee paid $17,013.20 when the bill came due at 2 years with interest compounded quarterly.

YEARLY

P = 15,480

r = 4.75% = .0475

n = 1

t = 2

$A = P (1+\frac{r}{n} )^{nt}$

$A = 15480(1+\frac{.0475}{1})^{1*2}$

$A = 15480(1+\frac{.0475}{12})^{2}$

$A = 15480(1+.0475})^{2}$

$A = 15480(1.0475)^{2}$

$A = 15480*1.0973$

$A = 16985.53$

Mr. Lee paid $16,985.53 when the bill came due at 2 years with interest compounded yearly.

when comparing condition means in an experiment with more than two conditions, why should you use an analysis of variance instea

Citrus2011 [14]

The we should use ANOVA instead of several t-tests to evaluate the differences in the mean of three or more groups.

<h3>What is t test?</h3>

A t- test is a measurable test that is utilized to look at the method for two gatherings. It is many times utilized in speculation testing to decide if a cycle or treatment really meaningfully affects the number of inhabitants in interest, or whether two gatherings are not quite the same as each other.

<h3>Explain ANOVA test:</h3>

The ANOVA test permits an examination of multiple gatherings simultaneously to decide if a relationship exists between them.

<h3 /><h3>According to question:</h3>

We ought to utilize ANOVA rather than a few t-tests to assess the distinctions in the mean of at least three gatherings on the grounds that without fail, we direct a t-test (between two gatherings) there is some opportunity that a Kind I blunder is being made while doing the test.
