Answer:
APR does not tell you how long your rate is locked for. A 15-year loan may have a lower interest rate, but could have a higher APR, since the loan fees are amortized over a shorter period of time. It is not wise to compare a 30-year loan with a 15-year loan using their respective APRs.

Answer:
The time it took until 2 inches of rain fell is 8 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
You know that the proportional relationship between the amount of time (in hours) it had been raining, x, and the amount of rain (in inches) it had fallen, y, is y = 0.25*x
To find the time that passed until 2 inches of rain fell, you must replace the amount of rain (in inches) that had fallen "and" by that value. In this way the following expression is obtained:
2= 0.25*x
Solving:

8 = x
So, remembering that the amount of time it had been raining, x, is expressed in hours, <u><em>the time it took until 2 inches of rain fell is 8 hours</em></u>.
So we are trying to solve for x so in order to do that we need to get x by itself on one side of the equal sign
first we are going to combine like terms on each side of the equal side
so on the left side we see 4+9 these are booth whole numbers not attached to a variable so we can simplify this by adding these two values together making our equation: x/13 = 12
our x is still not by itself so in order to get it by itself we need to get rid of that 13
we need that x is being divided by 13 so in order to get rid a divided value we have to do the opposite to both sides - multiply by 13 on each side!
x/13 x 13 = x
12 x 13 = 156
so our equation is now:
x = 156
is our x by itself on one side of the equal sign? yes! so our x value is 156
17.5 %. Simplify 5700000000 to 5.7 billion. 1 billion/5.7 billion = .175. Multiply by 100 for percent= 17.5%
I think that it’s 17 not a good
