Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the formula for determining compound interest which is expressed as

A = P(1+r/n)^nt

Where

A = total cost of the loan at the end of t years

r represents the interest rate.

n represents the periodic interval at which it was compounded.

P represents the principal or initial amount taken as loan.

Considering bank A's offer

From the information given,

P = $15500

r = 6% = 6/100 = 0.06

n = 12 because it was compounded 12 times in a year.

t = 8 years

Therefore,

A = 15500(1 + 0.06/12)^12 × 8

A = 15500(1 + 0.005)^96

A = 15500(1.005)^96

A = $25019.2

The interest paid is

25019.2 - 15500 = $9519.2

Considering bank B's offer

From the information given,

P = $15500

r = 6.5% = 6.5/100 = 0.065

n = 12 because it was compounded 12 times in a year.

t = 7 years

Therefore,

A = 15500(1 + 0.065/12)^12 × 7

A = 15500(1 + 0.0054)^84

A = 15500(1.0054)^84

A = $24366

The interest paid is

24366 - 15500 = $8866

The interest that would by paid on bank B's offer is lower than that of bank A and the duration of the loan offer from bank B is shorter than that of bank A.

Therefore,

Bank A gives you more time to pay up the loan and you end up paying more interest

Bank gives you lesser time to pay up the loan and you end up paying lesser interest.

What we have here in the picture is a graph of a segment. The goal is to find the segment's length, which we can do by using the distance formula:

d^2=(x_2-x_1)^2-(y_2-y_1)^2

Note that the distance between two points is equal to the length of the line segment that joins them.

So now we already have answers for two of the boxes.

The difference in the x-coordinates gives us the horizontal distance between the two points, while the difference in the y-coordinates gives us the vertical distance between the points.

So, the other two boxes should contain:

ElenaW [278]

Answer:

0.74 to 6.06

Step-by-step explanation:

The groups are independnet,

SE(xh bar-xa bar)=sqrt [sh^2/nh+sa^2/na]=sqrt [10.1^2/80+10.3^2/80]=1.61

At df=157, the t critical is 1.65

90%c.i=(xh bar-xa bar)+-tcritical SE(xh bar-xa bar)

=(25.2-21.8)+-1.65*1.61

=0.74 to 6.06
