<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.

a room has a length of 11 ft if the room has an area of at least 133 ft what does the width of the room have to be at least
MissTica

Area is the length times the width.

When you know the area and one of the dimensions, divide the area by the known dimension to find the other one.

133 / 11 = 12.09

The room needs to be at least 12.09 feet wide. ( round answer if needed).
