<h3>Answer:   173.04 dollars</h3>

======================================================

Explanation:

The down payment is $400, so that means they must pay back 1495-400 = 1095 dollars. Let L = 1095 be the amount loaned

The annual interest rate is 28% which means r = 0.28; the monthly interest rate is i = r/12 = 0.28/12 = 0.02333 approximately

There are 12 months in a year, so n = 12 is the number of payment periods

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

In summary so far, we have

  • L = 1095
  • i = 0.02333 (which is approximate)
  • n = 12

Those values will be plugged into the monthly payment formula below

M = L*( i*(1+i)^n )/( (1+i)^n - 1 )

M = 1095*( 0.02333*(1+0.02333)^12 )/( (1+0.02333)^12 - 1 )

M = 105.671914631108

M = 105.67

The monthly payment is $105.67

If they have a monthly payment of $105.67, and they pay that for 12 months, then 12*105.67 = 1,268.04 dollars is the amount of money they pay back to the credit card company.

The total amount of interest would be 1,268.04 - 1,095 = 173.04 dollars

Side note: the formula is a complicated ugly mess, so it's understandable to use calculators that already have the formula built in. Many websites offer free calculators that do this.

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

28 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

After placing 1 ball in each of the seven bins, there are two balls left.

If we place both balls in a single bin, there are 7 different ways to place the balls (place both on bins 1 through 7).

If we place each of the remaining balls in a different bin, the number of ways to place the balls is:

n_2=\frac{7!}{(7-2)!2!}=7*3=21

The total number of ways to distribute those balls is 21 + 7 = 28 ways.
