Rounding in the calculation of monthly interest rates is discouraged. Such rounding can lead to answers different from those pre

scZoUnD [109]

Step-by-step explanation:

Are you using a particular calculator for the class? For this class, is the payment expected to be compounded monthly?

There is a function in Microsoft Excel that will calculate the payment for you, but the answer is going to be slightly different for a business math class than a calculus-based statistics class.

The excel formula to calculate a payment is

=PMT(0.04/12,60,25000,0)

.04/12 is the interest APR on a monthly basis

60 is the number of months

25000 is the current amount owed

0 is the future balance after 60 payments

The answer from Excel is $460.41 -- ignore the negative sign for these purposes.

Multiply that number by the 60 months you pay and you get a total paid of $27,624.78

Remove the initial 25K and $2,624.78 is your interest amount.

By the way, I used the simplifying assumptions that the problem meant "interest rate" when it said "APR", and that the rate would compound monthly. In the actual loan industry, the interest rate is only part of the calculation for APR, a

146.08

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by figuring out the payment

effective rate: .035/12= .002916667

\begin{gathered}2000=x\frac{1-(1+.002916667)^{-48}}{.002916667}\\x=44.71\end{gathered}

2000=x

.002916667

1−(1+.002916667)

−48

x=44.71

then it's just

44.71*48-2000=146.08

I'm reasking a previous question to make it more clear. This is a Linear Equation that I must solve. It includes fractions (the

Ugo [173]

Assuming the equation is:

$\frac{x}{2}-\frac{10x-25}{10}=3(x+3)-(x-14)$

When fractions involve numeric denominators, the fractions can be removed by multiplying (both sides) by the LCM of the denominators.

Here the denominators are 2 and 10, hence the LCM is 10.

Multiply by 10 on both sides, not forgetting to distribute when multiplying on the right side:

$10\frac{x}{2}-10\frac{10x-25}{10}=10*3(x+3)-10(x-14)$

simplify, remember that there are always implied parentheses around numerators and denominators:

$5x-(10x-25)=30(x+3)-10(x-14)$

Now, distribute, i.e. remove parentheses and distribute:

5x-10x+25=30x+90-10x+140

Simplify

-5x+25=20x+230

transpose terms

25-230=20x+5x

solve

x=-205/25=-41/5

In this particular case, we can also take advantage of the term

(10x-25)/10=5(2x-5)/10=(2x-5)/2 which greatly simplifies the solution process, because the LCM will then be 2 instead of 10.

If we do that, the solution will be:

Multiply by 2 on both sides, not forgetting to distribute when multiplying on the right side:

$\frac{x}{2}-\frac{10x-25}{10}=3(x+3)-(x-14)$

simplify, remember that there are always implied parentheses around numerators and denominators:

$2\frac{x}{2}-2\frac{2x-5}{2}=2*3(x+3)-2(x-14)$

$x-(2x-5)=6(x+3)-2(x-14)$

Now, distribute, i.e. remove parentheses and distribute:

$x-2x+5=6x+18-2x+28$

Simplify

-x+5=4x+46

solve

5-46=4x+x

-41=5x

x=-41/5

with the same results.

Write 0.614¯¯¯ as a fraction in simplest form.

Verizon [17]

Answer:

307/500

Step-by-step explanation:

307 is a prime number.

The way to find this out is to take 0.614 and multiply it by 1,000 because then it will be a natural number. 0.614*1,000=614.

now you take 614/1,000 because that's what you multiplied it by and simplify it.

614/2 and 1,000/2=307/500 and this cannot be simplified any more than this because 307 is a prime number.
