Answer:

8% of of the Us states have the names that start with W.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that, of the 50 states, 4 have names that start with letter W, and to figure out what percentage of U.S. states have names that start with the letter W, we need to know what what 4 is what percent of 50.

We figure this out the following way:

Percent = \frac{4}{50} *100=0.08*100 =8

Percent = 8%

3. The minimum payment on a credit card is based on the total amount owed. A credit card company uses
shutvik [7]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The minimum payment on a credit card is based on the total amount owed. A credit card company uses the following rules: For a bill less than $20 the entire amount is due, for a bill of at least $20 but less than $500, the minimum due is $20. For a bill of at least $500 but less than $1000 the minimum due is $40 and for a bill of at least $1000 but less than $1500 the minimum due is $80 dollars. For a bill of $1500 or more the minimum due is 1/10th of the bill.

a. Write a function to describe the minimum payment due.  

b. What is the minimum payment due if the bill is $345?  

c. What is the minimum payment due if the bill is $1410?  

d. What is the minimum payment due if the bill is $1700?

Solution:

Let B represent the minimum due payment for a bill in dollars and let x represent the bill in dollars. Therefore:

For x < 20, B = x

For 20 ≤ x < 500, B = 20

For 500 ≤ x < 1000, B = 40

For 1000 ≤ x < 1500, B = 80

For x ≥ 1500, B = (1/10)x

a)

B(x)=\left \{ {{x\ \ \ x

b) For 20 ≤ x < 500, B = 20

Therefore if the bill is $345 (x = 345), the minimum payment due would be $20

c) For 1000 ≤ x < 1500, B = 80

Therefore if the bill is $1410 (x = 1410), the minimum payment due would be $80

d) For x ≥ 1500, B = (1/10)x

Therefore if the bill is $1700 (x = 1700), the minimum payment due would be $170 (1/10 * 1700)

Suppose you wish to borrow $600 for two weeks and the amount of interest you must pay is $25 per $100 borrowed. What is the APR
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

The APR at which the money is borrowed, is approximately 651.79%

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount which one wishes to borrow for two weeks, P = $600

The amount of interest that one must pay back = $25 per $100 borrowed

Therefore;

The total interest on the $600 loan (borrowed) for two weeks = 25/100× $600 = $150

The number of days for which the amount was borrowed = 2 weeks = 14 days

The Annual Percentage Rate, APR is given as follows;

APR = \left (\dfrac{\left (\dfrac{Interest \ Paid \ for \ the  \ Loan \ duration}{The \ amount \ borrowed} \right )}{The \ number \ of \ days \ the \ amount \ was  \ borrowed } \right ) \times 365 \times 100

Therefore, we get

APR = \left (\dfrac{\left (\dfrac{150}{600} \right )}{14 } \right ) \times 365 \times 100  \approx 651.79 \%

The annual rate at which the money is borrowed, APR ≈ 651.79%.

How would you plot number 10 on a coordinate plane
victus00 [196]
Hey there!

To plot the inequality y≥-6 on the coordinate plane, keep in mind that whenever you have y set equal to a constant, your graph will be a horizontal line. Therefore, your graph would be a solid (not dashed since your sign is greater than or equal to) horizontal line passing through (0,-6). Then you would shade the portion over the line to signify that the values of y must be greater than or equal to -6.

The graph below shows y≥-6:
