well, we're assuming all along that Merina owes Bradford $2000, because in the 1st scenario, she was going to pay twice $1000.
on the 2nd scenario, she'll be paying the same $2000 but split 7 months from now and then 7 months later, same 2000 bucks, at which point Bradford applied 8.5% interest.
using those assumptions, since the wording is not quite clear, we can say that Merina is simply paying 2000 bucks plus the 8.5%

The tenth place is the first number to the right of a decimal. To determine if you're rounding or not, check the hundred's place, 2 numbers to the right of a decimal, for 5 or higher. If it's .45, round to .5, if it's .44, round to .4
Your answer is 524.5, which is B.)
Angle bisector theorem:
CD/DB=AC/AB
REeplacing the known values:
CD/4=5.6/5.1
Solving for CD. Multiplying both sides of the equation by 4:
4(CD/4)=4(5.6/5.1)
CD=22.4/5.1
CD=4.392156863
Rounded to one decimal place:
CD=4.4
Answer: The length of CD is 4.4
