Answer:
Answer is -7 Hope this helps :D
Step-by-step explanation:
In an installment loan, a lender loans a borrower a principal amount P, on which the borrower will pay a yearly interest rate of i (as a fraction, e.g. a rate of 6% would correspond to i=0.06) for n years. The borrower pays a fixed amount M to the lender q times per year. At the end of the n years, the last payment by the borrower pays off the loan.
After k payments, the amount A still owed is
<span>A = P(1+[i/q])k - Mq([1+(i/q)]k-1)/i,
= (P-Mq/i)(1+[i/q])k + Mq/i.
</span>The amount of the fixed payment is determined by<span>M = Pi/[q(1-[1+(i/q)]-nq)].
</span>The amount of principal that can be paid off in n years is<span>P = M(1-[1+(i/q)]-nq)q/i.
</span>The number of years needed to pay off the loan isn = -log(1-[Pi/(Mq)])/(q log[1+(i/q)]).
The total amount paid by the borrower is Mnq, and the total amount of interest paid is<span>I = Mnq - P.</span>
Let l, t, b represent the numbers of lions, tigers, bears, respectively.
2l +3t +3b = 156 . . . . . . . 156 meals per day are supplied
l +t = 3b . . . . . . . . . . . . . . there are 3 times as many great cats as bears
l +t +b = 68 . . . . . . . . . . . there are a total of 68 animals
_____
The last 2 equations tell you
.. 4b = 68
.. b = 17
Subtracting 3 times the last equation from the first gives
.. -l = -48
There are 48 lions, 3 tigers, and 17 bears.
