Answer:

£1920

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount she spent in 2016 is 20% less than 2017. 20% less than is the same as 80% of the amount she spent in 2017. So, to find how much she spent in 2016, multiply 2400 by 0.80 (the decimal form of 80%):

2400 * 0.8 = 1920

Emily spent £1920 on holiday in 2016.

I hope this helps :)

John bought a used truck for $4,500. He made an agreement with the dealer to put $1,500 down and make payments of $350 for the n

musickatia [10]

Answer:

(D) 36%

Step-by-step explanation:

Actual cost of truck = $4500

Down payment = $1500

Money left to be paid = 4500-1500 = $3000

A = Monthly payments = 350

n = 10

Principal value (P) = 3000

Using formula,

A= $\frac{Pr(1+r)^{n}}{(1+r)^{n}-1}$

350 = $\frac{3000r(1+r)^{10}}{(1+r)^{10}-1}$

= 36% (approx)

Hence (D) is correct.
