<span>Normally when they tell you interest rate they say per annum meaning the percent interest rate for a year.
But in this problem they seem to say John pays 12% for a 146 day loan.
So interest = P * r / 100 = 8400 * 12/100 = $1,008.00
Maturity value = Principal + Interest = 8400 + 1008 = $9,408.00</span>
We need to find the difference first. 65 - 60 = 5. Now we must find what percent 5 is of 65. It is 7,7%. The number decreased, and so it is a 7,7% decrease.
Answer: X = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
7x - 99 = 2x + 1 --Take 2x from both sides
-2x -2x
5x - 99 = 1 -- add 99 to both
+99 +99
5x = 100 --Divide by 5
÷5 ÷5
x = 20
(x,y) ... (X-163, Y+125) Which ever direction it is, you apply it to the rule.
