A. IS THE ANSWER!
STEP-BY-STEP Explainaton
<span>B(n) = A(1 + i)^n - (P/i)[(1 + i)^n - 1]
where B is the balance after n payments are made, i is the monthly interest rate, P is the monthly payment and A is the initial amount of loan.
We require B(n) = 0...i.e. balance of 0 after n months.
so, 0 = A(1 + i)^n - (P/i)[(1 + i)^n - 1]
Then, with some algebraic juggling we get:
n = -[log(1 - (Ai/P)]/log(1 + i)
Now, payment is at the beginning of the month, so A = $754.43 - $150 => $604.43
Also, i = (13.6/100)/12 => 0.136/12 per month
i.e. n = -[log(1 - (604.43)(0.136/12)/150)]/log(1 + 0.136/12)
so, n = 4.15 months...i.e. 4 payments + remainder
b) Now we have A = $754.43 - $300 = $454.43 so,
n = -[log(1 - (454.43)(0.136/12)/300)]/log(1 + 0.136/12)
so, n = 1.54 months...i.e. 1 payment + remainder

1500 people subscribed Sunday edition and 250 people subscribed only sunday edition.
<u>Solution:</u>
Given, A survey of 2500 subscribers to a certain news paper revealed that 2250 people subscribe to the daily morning edition
And 1250 subscribe to both the daily and the sunday editions.
We have to find how many subscribe to the Sunday edition? how many subscribe to the Sunday edition only?
Let x denote the number who subscribe to the Sunday edition.
Then the addition rule with overlap tells us that
Those who subscribe daily edition + those who subscribe sunday edition - those who subscribe both daily and sunday edition = total subscribers in survey
2250 + x – 1250 = 2500
1000 + x = 2500
x = 1500
so, 1500 subscribe to the Sunday edition and 1500 – 1250 = 250 subscribe to the Sunday edition only.
Hence, 1500 people subscribed Sunday edition and 250 people subscribed only sunday edition.
Answer: 4 * 8 = -32y
4 * 5 = -20
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = - 6 or x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The absolute value function always returns a positive value. However, the expression inside can be positive or negative.
Given
| 2x + 4 | - 1 = 7 ( add 1 to both sides )
| 2x + 4 | = 8, thus
2x + 4 = 8 ( subtract 4 from both sides )
2x = 4 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 2
OR
-(2x + 4) = 8
- 2x - 4 = 8 ( add 4 to both sides )
- 2x = 12 ( divide both sides by - 2 )
x = - 6
As a check
Substitute these values into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then they are the solutions.
x = 2 → | 4 + 4 | - 1 = | 8 | - 1 = 8 - 1 = 7 ← True
x = - 6 → | - 12 + 4 | - 1 = | - 8 | - 1 = 8 - 1 = 7 ← True
Hence the solutions are x = - 6 or x = 2
