A town's yearly snowfall in inches over a 10-year period is recorded in this table. What is the mean of the snowfall amounts?

lawyer [7]

So to find the mean you add them all together and divide by the number of numbers there is so 11+15+19+17+23+20+17+18+21=174 and there are 10 numbers so it would be 174/10 which is 17.4 so you answer is 17.4

You plan on financing a new road bike for $2,500. The bike shop offers a 13.5% APR for a 24 month loan. Use this information, an

Mila [183]

This question can be approached using the present value of annuity formula. The present value of annuity is given by $PV=P\left( \frac{1-\left(1+ \frac{r}{t} \right)^{-nt}}{ \frac{r}{t} } \right)$ , where: PV is the present value/amount of the loan, P is the periodic (monthly in this case) payment, r is the APR, t is the number of payments in one year and n is the number of years.

Given that the<span> financing is for a new road bike of $2,500 and that the bike shop offers a 13.5% APR for a 24 month loan.

Thus, PV = $2,500; r = 13.5% = 0.135; t = 12 payments (since payment is made monthly); n = 2 years (i.e. 24 months)

Thus,

</span> $2500=P\left( \frac{1-\left(1+ \frac{0.135}{12} \right)^{-2\times12}}{ \frac{0.135}{12} } \right) \\ \\ =P\left( \frac{1-\left(1+ 0.01125 \right)^{-24}}{ 0.01125 } \right)=P\left( \frac{1-\left(1.01125 \right)^{-24}}{ 0.01125 } \right) \\ \\ =P\left( \frac{1-0.764531}{ 0.01125 } \right)=P\left( \frac{0.235469}{ 0.01125 } \right)=20.9306P \\ \\ \Rightarrow P= \frac{2500}{20.9306} =119.44$
<span>
Therefore, his monthly payment is $119.44</span>
