let's make p stand for popcorn and d for drinks. Using those variables, we can create our equations:

2p + 3d = 18.25

4p + 2d = 27.50

From this, we can use substitution or elimination to solve:

For substitution, in the second equations, we could factor out a 2, divide both sides by 2, and then move the left over 2p to the other side to isolate d to put into the first equation.

For elimination, we can multiply the first equation by -2 so that we can remove the 4p and focus on solving for d.

I'll be using elimination in this case:

-2(2p + 3d = 18.25) --> -4p - 6d = -36.50

-4p - 6d = -36.50

4p  + 2d = 27.50

-4d = -9.00

d = 2.25

4p + 2 * 2.25 = 27.50

4p + 4.50 = 27.50

4p = 23.00

p = 5.75

Now let's check our answer:

2 * 5.75 + 3 * 2.25 = 18.25

11.50 + 6.75 = 18.25

18.25 = 18.25

So drinks cost $2.25 and popcorn $5.75

Consider a home mortgage of ​$250,000 at a fixed APR of ​4.5% for 30 years. a. Calculate the monthly payment. b. Determine the t
lianna [129]

Answer:

  a. payment: $1266.71

  b. total paid: $456, 015.60

  c. fraction to principal: 54.8%; fraction to interest: 45.2%

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>a.</h3>

The amortization formula tells you the monthly payment is ...

  A = P(r/12)/(1 -(1 +r/12)^(-12t))

Payment on principal P at annual rate r for t years.

  A = $250,000(0.045/12)/(1 -(1 +0.045/12)^(-12·30)) ≈ $1266.71

The monthly payment is $1266.71.

__

<h3>b.</h3>

360 monthly payments of $1266.71 will have a total value of ...

  360 × $1266.71 = $456,015.60 . . . . total amount paid

__

<h3>c.</h3>

Of course, $250,000 is paid on the principal. That percentage is ...

  $250,000/$456,015.60 × 100% ≈ 54.8% . . . to principal

The remaining fraction is paid for interest:

  100% -54.8% = 45.2% . . . to interest
