Answer:
<em>The answer is 13</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Two positive and consecutive old numbers are x and x - 2.
=> x(x - 2) = 143
=> x^2 - 2x - 143 = 0
=> x^2 + 11x - 13x - 143 = 0
=> x(x + 11) - 13(x + 11) = 0
=> (x + 11)(x - 13) = 0
=> x = -11 (invalid)
or x = 13 (valid), the remaining number is 13 - 2 = 11
=> The two numbers are 11 and 13, and the greater number is 13.
Hope this helps!

Answer:
$86.81
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the given formula, we want to compute A for ...
P = 4750
r = 0.2279
n = 365 . . . . . assuming "exact" interest
t = 1 or 30
For 1 day late:
A = 4750(1 +0.2279/365)^(365·(1/365)) = 4752.97
For 30 days late:
A = 4750(1 +0.2279/365)^(365·(30/365)) = 4839.78
The difference in these payment amounts is ...
$4839.78 -4752.97 = $86.81
You would save $86.81 in interest charges by paying only 1 day late.

<em>Comment on the question</em>
It would be a poor choice of credit card to use one that compounds interest daily. Most do so on a monthly basis.
The slope intercept form is y=mx+b
in this case y=-x
y=(-1)x + 0
so the slope m=-1 and y-intercept which is b is 0
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
40(12/100)
480/100
$4.80
7/8=x/48
x=(7/8)48
x=(7)(48/8)
x=(7)(6)
x=42
D.42
