Answer:

y = 3/2*x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets say that P1=(6,4) and P2=(4,1) and that the form of the equation must be y=m*x+b where m is the slope and b the independent variable. Then having two given points we can use the slope formula to find the slope value as:

P1=(x1,y1) and P2=(x2,y2)

slope formula --->   m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Replacing the given points --->    m=(1-4)/(4-6) = 3/2

then replacing the slope value obtained:

y = 3/2*x + b

Now lets find the value of b. For this we have to replace in the equation a point it can be P1 or P2, i will replace P2:

1 = 3/2*4 + b

1 = 6 + b

1 - 6 = b

-5 = b

therefore the line equation is:

y = 3/2*x - 5

Susan and ronald dugan agreed upon the price of 256,000 for their new home. They plan to make 30 percent down payment and financ
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

The total amount to be paid for new home is $838,014.72  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The price of the new house = $256,000

The down payment amount = 30% of house price

So, The down payment price =  30% of $256,000

i.e The down payment price =  \dfrac{30}{100} × 256000

Or, The down payment price = $76,800

Now, rest amount is finance

So, The finance Amount = p = $256000 - $76800 = $179,200

The rate of interest applied = r = 7.5%

The time period of finance = t = 20 years

Let The Amount after 20 years of finance = $A

Let The total amount to be paid for new home = $B

<u>Now, From Compound Interest </u>

Amount = Principal × (1+\dfrac{\textrm rate}{100})^{\textrm time}

Or, A = p × (1+\dfrac{\textrm r}{100})^{\textrm t}

Or, A = $179,200 × (1+\dfrac{\textrm 7.5}{100})^{\textrm 20}

Or, A = $179,200 × (1.075)^{\textrm 20}

Or, A = $179,200 × 4.24785

∴  A = $761,214.72

So,The Amount after 20 years of finance = A = $761,214.72

<u>Now, Again</u>

The total amount to be paid for new home = Down payment amount + The Amount after 20 years of finance

Or, B = $76,800 + A

Or, B = $76,800 + $761,214.72

Or, B = $838,014.72

So, The total amount to be paid for new home = B = $838,014.72

Hence, The total amount to be paid for new home is $838,014.72  Answer
