Answer:

  B. Between 9% and 9.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for the sum of a series of monthly payments P earning interest rate r compounded monthly for t years is given by ...

  A = P((1 +r/12)^(12t) -1)/(r/12)

The number of years in this case is ...

  70 -18 = 52

We want to find r such that ...

  1,000,000 = 50·12((1 +r/12)^(12·52) -1)/r

  10,000/6 = ((1 +r/12)^624 -1)/r

We can try some values for r to see what may work.

<u>r = 9%</u>

  ((1 +.09/12)^624 -1)/.09 = 1165.60 . . . not quite enough

<u>r = 10%</u>

  ((1 +0.10/12)^624 -1)/0.10 = 176408 . . . > 1666.67

The required interest rate will be between 9% and 10%, option B.

_____

In general, finding the exact interest rate is an iterative process. A financial calculator can do it for you. The result is near 9.86%. The graph shows a solution using a graphing calculator.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you can present a problem in Latex, you can do anything. I don't know what the question mark is for. I'm just ignoring it.

55 2/3 * 66 5/6

One of the ways to get the answer is to use decimals

55.666666667 * 66.833333333 = 3720.38889

Another way to do this problem is to break up one of the numbers

55 2/3 (66 + 5/6)   You can do this if you know how to use the distributive property.

55 2/3 * 66 + 55 2/3 * 5/6

( (165 + 2) / 3) * 66 + (165 + 2)/3 * 5/6

167/3 * 66 + 167 / 3 * 5/6

167 * 22 + (167 * 5 / (3 * 6)

3674 + 835 / 18

3674 + 46 7/18

3720 7/18

If none of these seem right and you have choices, please list them.
