X=21 and y=14
Here is how I got it I found out the ratio of the sides that measured 18 and 12
the ratio was 3:2 so I divided 27 by 1 1/2 and I got 18 but since the equation for x was x-3 all i had to do was 21-3=18 so x=21 and i did the same thing with Y

Jamie purchased a condo in Naples, Florida, for $699,000. She put 20% down and financed the rest at 5% for 35 years. What are Ja

EleoNora [17]

The payments are ...
A = P(r/n)/(1 -(1+r/n)^(-nt))
where P is the principal amount, $699,000*0.80 = $559,200
r is the annual interest rate, 0.05
n is the number of compoundings per year, 12
t is the number of years.
Then
A = 559,200*(0.05/12)/(1 -(1 +0.05/12)^(-12*35)) = 2822.21

The total of 420 of these payments is $1,185,328.20, which is $626,128.20 more than the loan amount.

Jamie's total finance charge is about $626,128.20.

_____
There is always some minor adustment required in the amount of the last payment. That has not been taken into account here.

A piece of carpet is 8 feet wide and 12 feet long the carpet needs to be reduced by a scale farctor so that the reduced carpet i

Murljashka [212]

Answer: 6 ft ^ 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a piece of carpet is 8 feet wide and 12 feet long. The carpet needs to be reduced by a scale factor so that the reduced carpet is 2 feet wide.

First of all, let us find the scale factor by which the width of the carpet has been reduced.

Original width of carpet x scale factor = 12

Dividing both sides by 8 feet we will get:

8 feet x Scale factor/8 ft = 2/8 ft

Scale Factor = 1/4

Let us find the length of carpet after reduced by a scale factor of 1/4.

Length of the carpet after reducing a factor of 1/4=12 ft x 1/4

Length of the carpet after reducing a factor of 1/4=3 ft.

Now we will multiply the reduced length and width of the carpet to find the area of reduced carpet.

Area of reduced carpet = 2 ft x 3 ft

Area of reduced carpet = 6 ft

Therefore, the area of reduced carpet is 6 square feet.
