Hello

3 years. Since no mention of compounding was made I will assume that it's 3.5% simple interest. So first, let's calculate what percent of the entire loan was interest. Just a simply matter of division. 2625 / 25000 = 0.105 = 10.5% Now lets' divide the percentage of the loan that was paid in interest by the interest rate. 10.5% / 3.5% = 3 So the company took 3 years to repay the loan.

Answer: The company repaid the money in 3 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to solve this problem we have to apply the simple interest formula:

I = P x r x t

where:

I = interest = $2625

P = Principal amount= $25,000

r = interes rate (decimal) = 3.5% = 3.5 / 100 = 0.035

t = time

So, mathematically speaking:

I = P x r x t

2625 = 25,000 x 0.035 x t

2625= 875 x t

2625 / 875 =t

3 years = t

In conclusion, the company repaid the money in 3 years.

Feel free to ask for more if it´s necessary or if you did not understand something.

The function f(t)=t^2+12t-18 represents a parabola. Part A: Rewrite the function in vertex form by completing the square. Show y
ale4655 [162]
The function in vertex form is f(t) = (t+6)^{2} -54 (refer to your other post I solved it there).
The general form of quadratic equations in vertex form is f(x) = a(x-h)^{2} +k, where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola.
Here, a = 1, h = -6 and k = -54
Therefore, the vertex is (-6, -54) and it is a maximum because a = 1 is postive.

A number divided by 43 has a quotient of 3 with 28 as a remainder. Find the number. Show your work. Write another division probl
antiseptic1488 [7]

A quotient of 3 with 28 as a remainder means that 43 fits inside our number 3 times, and you have 28 more units as a remainder.

So, our number is

3\times 43 + 28 = 129+28=157

To write another division problem that has a quotient of 3 and a remainder of 28, we simply choose another number to substitute 43 in the expression above. For example, if we choose 100, the expression becomes

3\times 100 + 28 = 300+28=328

Which means that 328 has quotient of 3 with 28 as a remainder when divided by 100.
