Answer:

No, Brandon is not correct in making that statement

Step-by-step explanation:

No, Brandon is not correct in making that statement. The absolute value of a number is the total distance between that number and 0. Brandon most likely states this because the absolute value of a negative number such as -5 would actually be the opposite, which is 5. This is not true for the absolute value of a positive such as 5, which instead is actually just 5. Meaning that the absolute value of a positive integer is the same value and NOT the opposite.

Marcia has two credit cards and would like to consolidate the two balances into one balance on the card with the lower interest
swat32
Given:
Card A - 1,879.58 ; APR 14%; monthly -43.73
Card B -    861.00 ; APR 10% ; monthly -18.29

5 years x 12 months/yr = 60 months.

Card A = 43.73 x 60 = 2,623.80
Card B = 18.29 x 60 = 1,097.40
Total : 2,623.80 + 1,097.40 = 3,721.20

Lowest APR is 10%. monthly rate: 0.83%
Total Card balance: 1,879.58 + 861 = 2,740.58

A = P * (r(1+r)^n) / [(1+r)^n -1]
A = 2,740.58 * [0.0083 (1.0083)^60] / [(1.0083)^60 - 1]
A = 2,740.58 * 0.014/0.64
A = 2,740.58 * 0.022
A = 60.29 monthly payment.

60.29 x 60 = 3,617.40

Separate cards: 3,721.20
Consolidated:     3,617.40
Difference: 103.80

The closest among the choices is Choice C. 105.  Difference in amount may vary in the rounding off of the decimal numbers.

Need help asap!!<br> Solve -2/5x-9&lt;9/10
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

x>24.75

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is :

\dfrac{-2}{5}x-9

Add 9 to both sides of the inequality.

\dfrac{-2}{5}x-9+9

Multiply 5 to both sides of the inequality.

\dfrac{-2x}{5}\times 5

Dividing both sides by(-2)

x

or

x>24.75

Hence, the value of x is greater than 24.75.
