Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3(8-m)=5m-40

you first distribute 3 through the parenthesis

24-3m=5m-40

Move the variable to the left and change sign

24-3m-5m=-40

now move the constant to the right

-3m-5m=-40-24

collect like terms

-8m=-40-24

-8m=-64

Divide both sides by -8 and negative divide negative number becomes positive

so m = 8

Enos took out a 25-year loan for $135,000 at an APR of 6.0%, compounded monthly, and he is making monthly payments of $869.81. W

Alborosie

Present value = 135000
Monthly interest, i = 0.06/12 = 0.005
Monthly payment, A= 869.81

Future value of loan after 16 years
$F=P(1+i)^n$ [compound interest formula]
$=135000(1+.005)^{16*12}$
$=351736.652$

Future value of payments after 16 years
$\frac{A((1+i)^n-1)}{i}$
$=\frac{869.81((1+0.005)^{16*12}-1)}{0.005}$
$=279287.456$

Balance = future value of loan - future value of payments
=351736.652-279288.456
= $ 72448.20

Note: the exact monthly payment for a 25-year mortgage is
$A=\frac{P(i*(1+i)^n)}{(1+i)^n-1}$
$=\frac{135000(0.005*(1+0.005)^{25*12}}{(1+0.005)^{25*12}-1}$
$=869.806892$

Repeating the previous calculation with this "exact" monthly payment gives
Balance = 72448.197, very close to one of the choices.

So we conclude that the exact value obtained above differs from the answer choices is due to the precision (or lack of it) of the provided data.

The closest choice is therefore <span>$72,449.19</span>

the scientists collection that as granite that weighs 74 26/36 lbs, marble that weighs 63 16/34 lbs, and quartz that weighs 81 9

ipn [44]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the weight of granite to be 74 26/36 lbs,

Weight of quartz is 81 9/40 lbs.

To know how much more quartz weight than the granite, we will take the difference between the weight of quartz and granite as shown.

Weight of quartz - Weight of granite

= 81 9/40 - 74 26/36

= 3,249/40 - 2690/36

= (29, 241 - 26,900)/360

= 2,341/360

= 6 181/360

≈ 6 1/2 lbs

quartz weighs approximately 6 1/2 lbs much more than granite
