Laura owes $4759 on a credit card with a 20.9% interest rate compounded monthly. What is the monthly payment she should make in
Juliette [100K]
This can be calculated using the formula:
P = L((r/n)*(1 + r/n)^(n*t))/((1 + r/n)^(n*t) - 1)
Where:
L = 4759
r = 0.209
n = 12
t = 3
So plugging in our data:P = 4759((0.209/12)*(1 + 0.209/12)^(12*3))/((1 + 0.209/12)^(12*3) - 1)
Which will give us the amount of: $179.05 is the monthly repayments.

a student says that if 5x^2 = 20, then x must be equal to 2. do u agre or disagree with the student? justify your answer.​
inna [77]

Answer:

The student is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 5x² = 20:

It is true that the value of x = 2 because 2² = 4, and when you multiply 4 with 5, you'll get a product of 20:

5x² = 20

5(2)² = 20

5(4) = 20

20 = 20

Therefore, the student is correct that x = 2.
