Answer:

$191,340.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

We find the amount that is paid monthly by the Lee's

We are told in the question that:

Cost of the house =$360,000

Down payment = $50,000

We are also told, the balance left after the down payment was made = Mortgage that is amortized at an

Interest rate of 5.25%

Time = 20 years

Hence, Mortgage amount = $360,000 - $50,000 = $310,000

Formula for monthly payment =

M= P[r(1+r)^n/((1+r)^n)-1)]

M = the total monthly mortgage payment.

P = the principal loan amount.

r = your monthly interest rate.

= rate/12

=5.25%/12 = 0.0525/12

= 0.004375

n = number of payments

= number of years × number of months

= 20 × 12 = 240 payments

Formula for monthly payment =

M= P[r(1+r)^n/((1+r)^n)-1)]

M = 310,000[0.004375(1 + 0.004375)^240/((1 + 0.004375)^240 ) - 1]

M = $2,088.92

Therefore, the monthly payment by the Lee's is $2,088.92

Step 2

We calculate the Total Amount paid by the Lee's in 20years because we are told in the question that they paid off their mortgage after 20 years

Total Amount paid = Monthly payments × Number of payments

= $2,088.92 × 240

= $501,340.80

Step 3

The third and final step is to calculate the Total interest paid for 20 years

Total Interest = Total amount paid - Mortgage amount

= $501,340.80 - $310,000

Total Interest: $191,340.80

Therefore,the interest will they have paid in total is $191,340.80

A yard is 3 times as long as it is wide. 176 feet of fencing is needed to enclose the yard. Find the dimensions of the yard
svet-max [94.6K]
The perimeter of a rectangle is twice the sum of its side lengths.

P=2(L+W), we are told that L=3W and P=176 so

2(3W+W)=176

2(4W)=176

8W=176

W=22 ft, since L=3W

L=66 ft

So the yard is 22 feet wide and 66 feet long.
