You're looking for the percentage in decimal form in the equation. We'll call it x for right now. So whatever x is it will be multiplied to 3.20 and subtracted from 3.20 to equal 2.40. So, our equation will look like this
3.20-x(3.20)=2.40
subtract both sides of the equation by 3.20 to get
-x (3.20)=2.40-3.20
-x (3.20)=-.80
now divide both sides of the equation by -3.20 to single out x on the left side
x= -.80/-3.20
x=.25
to turn this back into a percentage, we move the decimal to the right 2 places
.25=25%
Answer: x = 157
Step-by-step explanation:

Switch sides:

Divide both sides by 6:

Simplify:



Answer:
15000(1.003425)^12t ;
4.11%
4.188%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Loan amount = principal = $15000
Interest rate, r = 4.11% = 0.0411
n = number of times compounded per period, monthly = 12 (number of months in a year)
Total amount, F owed, after t years in college ;
F(t) = P(1 + r/n)^nt
F(t) = 15000(1 + 0.0411/12)^12t
F(t) = 15000(1.003425)^12t
2.) The annual percentage rate is the interest rate without compounding = 4.11%
3.)
The APY
APY = (1 + APR/n)^n - 1
APY = (1 + 0.0411/12)^12 - 1
APY = (1.003425)^12 - 1
APY = 1.04188 - 1
APY = 0.04188
APY = 0.04188 * 100% = 4.188%
Answer:
a) T= 0.25 C+37
b) T= 62°F
Step-by-step explanation:
Here T is a linear function of C
T= mC+b
For each additional chirp C corresponding to an increase in T of 0.25
therefore, m= 0.25
T= 42° F C=20 ( given)
therefore,
a) 42= 0.25×20+b
b= 37
therefore T= 0.25 C+37
b) now C= 100
therefore, T= 0.25×100+37 = 62°F
