Answer: Yes he will be

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out if Ted can afford the car, find the future value of $4,300 in three years.

First convert the number of years and rates to quarterly values as this is the compounding period:

Term = 3 * 4 quarters = 12 quarters

Rate = 5.5% / 4 = 1.375% per quarter

Future value = Amount * ( 1 + rate) ^ term

= 4,300 * ( 1 + 1.375%)¹²

= $5,065.69

<em>Considering that Ted makes $5,065.69 in 3 years, he will be able to buy a car that costs $4,700.</em>

An infinite geometric series has a first term ai = 15 and a sum of 45. Explain how you
oee [108]

Answer:

r= \frac{2}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum to infinity of a geometric series is calculated as

S∞ = \frac{a_{1} }{1-r} ; | r | < 1

where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio

here a₁ = 15 and S∞ = 45 , then

45 = \frac{15}{1-r} ( multiply both sides by (1 - r ) )

45(1 - r) = 15 ( divide both sides by 45 )

1 - r = \frac{15}{45} = \frac{1}{3} ( subtract 1 from both sides )

- r = \frac{1}{3} - 1 = - \frac{2}{3} ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

r = \frac{2}{3}
