To factor, you do the opposite of what you would in distributive property. You have to find the greatest common factor, or GCF, of 4 and -2.

4 2

------ -------

1 | 4 1 | 2

2 | 2

So the GCF is 2. Now we factor the expression.

4x-2

2(2x-1)

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 $72,449.19

(0, -9) and (-3, -3) I need this problem solved with work please!

nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

-9-(-3)/0-(-3) = -3/3 = -1

y+9= -1(x-0) Point Slope form

y+9-9= -1x-9

y= -x-9 Slope Intercept form

y+x+9 = -x-9 +x+9

y+x+9= 0 General form

Kellan’s lemonade recipe uses 4 scoops of lemonade powder for every 2.5 cups of water. Kellan uses 10 scoops of lemonade powder

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

6.25 cups of water

Step-by-step explanation:

So I first write out the rates: 4:2.5 and also 10:?

So let's find out how the scoops changed, as in how did you get 4 to become 10 so you can do the same thing to 2.5 and get ?.

To go from 4 to 10 you MULTIPLY/DIVIDE. DON'T ADD OR SUBTRACT. 10 divided by 4 (to see what you multiplied by) is 2.5.

So we multiplied 4 by 2.5 to get 10. So if we multiply 2.5 by 2.5 we get 6.25.

So 4:2.5 = 10:6.25

?=6.25

Hope this helps!
