A family wants to purchase a house that costs ​$165 comma 000. They plan to take out a ​$125 comma 000 mortgage on the house and

put ​$40 comma 000 as a down payment. The bank informs them that with a​ 15-year mortgage their monthly payment would be ​$740.18 and with a​ 30-year mortgage their monthly payment would be ​$518.33. Determine the amount they would save on the cost of the house if they selected the​ 15-year mortgage rather than the​ 30-year mortgage

Case A: 15-year mortgage
The family puts $40,000 as a down payment. They pay $740.18 per month for 15 years, which is the same as 180 months (15*12 = 180). So they pay 180*740.18 = $133,232.40 on top of the $40,000 down payment. The total cost of the home is 40,000+133,232.40 = 173,232.40

Since we'll use this value later, let's call it m. So m = 173,232.40

-----------------------------------------------

Case B: 30-year mortgage

Down payment = $40,000
Monthly Payment = $518.33
Number of months = (number of years)*12
Number of months = (30)*12
Number of months = 360
Total cost = (number of months)*(monthly payment) + (down payment)
Total cost = 360*518.33+40,000
Total cost = $226,598.80

Call this n. So n = 226,598.80

-----------------------------------------------

Comparison:

With the 15-year mortgage, the total cost was m = 173,232.40
With the 30-year mortgage, the total cost was n = 226,598.80

How much does the family save if they go with the 15-year mortgage? Subtract the values
n - m = 226,598.80 - 173,232.40 = 53,366.4

The family saves $53,366.40

The 15-year mortgage is the better option assuming the family can afford the larger monthly payment..

7.<br>(-3x³)(-2x³y⁴z)(-3z²)÷(4x³z)(-3yz) (-3xyz)​
serg [7]

Answer:

-\frac{x^2y^2}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

We have an extremely large equation and are asked to divide it, so let's solve it step-by-step :

Remove the parenthesis to make it easier to read :

\frac{-3x^3 *2x^3y^4z *3z^2}{4x^3z*3yz*3xyz}

Multiply the numerators :

\frac{-18x^6y^4z^3}{4*3*3x^3yyzzz}

Multiply the denominators :

\frac{-18x^6y^4z^3}{36x^4y^2z^3}

Apply the negative rule :

-\frac{18x^6y^4z^3}{36x^4y^2z^3}

Cancel the common factor which is 18 :

-\frac{x^6y^4z^3}{2x^4y^2z^3}

Apply the addition exponent rule :

\frac{y^4z^3x^{6-4} }{2y^2z^3}

Subtract :

\frac{x^2y^4z^3 }{2y^2z^3}

Apply the rule for y :

\frac{x^2y^{4-2} z^3 }{2z^3}

Subtract :

\frac{x^2y^2z^3 }{2z^3}

Cancel the common factor of z^3 :

-\frac{x^2y^2}{2}

Answer:

210

Step-by-step explanation:

GCF(30,42) = 6

LCM(30,42) = ( 30 × 42) / 6

LCM(30,42) = 1260 / 6

LCM(30,42) = 210
