Answer:
$2038.85
Step-by-step explanation:
The value of the loan at that point is given by ...
A = P(1 +rt) . . . . . Principal P, rate r, time t (years)
A = $1850(1 + 0.1225·(10/12)) = $2038.85
Ricardo will have paid back $2038.85 at the end of the loan period.

<em>Additional comment</em>
We assume that the loan accrues simple interest and that the amount due is the sum of principal and interest at the end of the loan period.
The question is not specific as to whether interest compounds, or whether intermediate (monthly) payments are made. There are many possible ways the loan could be repaid, generally involving different amounts for the different terms.
Answer:
Length: 5 ft; width: 4 ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
A = LW formula for area of rectangle
(2x + 1)(2x) = 20 substitute length, width, and area into formula
4x² + 2x - 20 = 0 use the distributive property to multiply out left side
2x² + x - 10 = 0 divide both sides of equation by 2
(2x + 5)(x - 2) = 0 factor out trinomial
2x + 5 = 0 or x - 2 = 0 use zero product rule to solve for x
2x = -5 or x = 2 subtract 5 from both sides; add 2 to both sides
x = -5/2 or x = 2
We discard x = -5/2 since it would give negative length and width, and the length and width cannot be negative.
Length: 2x + 1 = 2(2) + 1 = 5
Width: 2x = 2(2) = 4
Length: 5 ft; width: 4 ft.
