1. Ada purchased a house using a fixed rate mortgage. The annual interest rate is 6.3%
vlabodo [156]

The monthly  payment on the mortgage is option C) $2537.44

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

  • Principal (P): $ 295,000
  • Rate (r): 6.3%  = 0.063
  • Number of times compounded (n): 12months\times15 years = 180
  • Number of years = 15

The formula is A = P(1 + r/n)^nt

⇒ A = 295000(1+0.063/180)^(180\times15)

⇒ A = 295000(180.063/180)^2700

⇒ A = 295000 (1.00035)^2700

⇒ A = 758854.5

Interest = Amount - Principle

⇒ 758854.5 - 295000

⇒ Interest = 463854.5

∴ The monthly payment for 15 years = 463854.5 / (15\times12)

The monthly  payment on the mortgage = 2576.9 (approximately option C)

For each figure answer the following questions
Rudiy27

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  a) ∆ABC ~ ∆EDC by AA similarity

  b) ED/AB = 3/4

  c) 15 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Two angles in each triangle are the same, so the AA similarity postulate can be used to declare the ∆ABC ~ ∆EDC. (Each triangle includes a right angle and angle C.)

__

b) Corresponding sides are ED/AB, DC/BC, EC/AC. The ratio of corresponding sides is ED/BC = (12 cm)/(16 cm) = 3/4.

__

c) Using the ratios identified above, we have ...

  DC/BC = 3/4 = x/(20 cm)

  x = 3/4(20 cm)

  x = 15 cm

an engineer has a 54 inch wire that she has to cut into two pieces so that one piece is 8 inches shorter than the other find the
Brilliant_brown [7]

Hey there!!

Let's take the length of the bigger piece as x inches

Then, the length of the smaller piece would be x - 8 inches

The sum of these lengths would be 54 inches

... x + x - 8 = 54

... 2x - 8 = 54

... Add 8 on both sides

... 2x = 62

... Divide 2 on both sides

... x = 31

Hence, the length of the bigger piece = 31 inches

The length of the smaller piece would be = 31 - 8 = 23 inches

Hope my answer helps!!
