Answer:

\frac{\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{2}  }{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the difference formula for cosine and the exact values

cos45° = sin45° = \frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}, cos30° = \frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}, sin30° = \frac{1}{2}

cos(a - b) = cosacosb + sinasinb

Note 15° = 45° - 30°, thus

cos15°

= cos(45 - 30)°

= cos45°cos30° + sin45°sin30°

= (\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} × \frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} ) + (\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} × \frac{1}{2} )

= \frac{\sqrt{6} }{4} + \frac{\sqrt{2} }{4}

= \frac{\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{2}  }{4}

Omar has decided to purchase an $11,000 car. He plans on putting 20% down toward the purchase, and financing the rest at 4.8% in
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

The monthly payment is $262.95

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- Omar has decided to purchase an $11,000 car

- He plans on putting 20% down toward the purchase

* Lets find the value of the 20%

∵ The principal value is $11000

∴ the value of the 20% = 20/100 × 11000 = 2200

∴ He will put $2200 down

* Lets find the balance to be paid off on installments

∴ The balance = 11000 - 2200 = 8800

- He financing the rest at 4.8% interest rate for 3 years

* Lets find the rule of the monthly payment

∵ pmt=\frac{\frac{r}{n}[P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}]}{(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}-1} , where

- pmt is the monthly payment

- P = the investment amount

- r = the annual interest rate (decimal)

- n = the number of times that interest is compounded per unit t

- t = the time the money is invested or borrowed for

∵ P = 8800

∵ r = 4.8/100 = 0.048

∵ n = 12

∵ t = 3

∴ pmt=\frac{\frac{0.048}{12}[8800(1+\frac{0.048}{12})^{3(12)}]}{(1+\frac{0.048}{12})^{3(12)}-1}

∴ pmt=\frac{0.004[8800(1.004)^{36}]}{(1.004)^{36}-1}=262.95

* The monthly payment is $262.95
