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.

Got this online. Pour the distilled water in the beaker until it is half full. Add 3 tbsp. of salt to the water and mix until completely dissolved.

Insert the two electrodes into the salt water. They should be on either side of the beaker. Once this is done, the light bulb should light up.

How to now your timetables by your hands
Ivenika [448]
1
Hold your hands out in front of you with your palms facing up. Each of your ten fingers represent a number. Moving from your left thumb to your right thumb, count out the numbers from one to ten. 2 Point the finger you want to multiply by nine down towards your body. For example, if you want to solve (9x3) you will want to hold down your middle finger on your left hand. The middle finger represents the number three because, if you count your fingers from one to ten beginning with your left thumb, your middle finger is the third finger. 3 Solve the problem by counting fingers to the left and right. First count the fingers to the left of your bent finger - in this case there should be two. Next count the fingers to the right of your bent finger - in this case there should be seven. The first digit of the answer is 2 and the second digit is 7. The answer is 27![1]

Which mathematical term cannot be defined for all cases in a system of geometry?
Fynjy0 [20]

The mathematical terms that cannot be defined for all cases in a system of geometry are the parallel lines and midpoint of a line segment. A line is an infinite series of points in a row and it does not occupy any space. They are also called one dimensional since the direction is in one dimension. A point has a location but no specific size. It can describe a location but you can never determine its actual size. Imagine the point at the end of the previous sentence. And then imagine it getting smaller and smaller until it disappears. We can only use a dot to represent the point.
