Answer:

  maybe not

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider a couple of scenarios for a $20,000 car purchase and a $2000 rebate, with sales tax at 10%.

1) The rebate is applied directly to the purchase price.

  Taxable amount: $20,000 -2,000 = $18,000.

  Price with tax: $18,000 × 1.10 = $19,800

  Amount financed: $19,800.

__

2) The rebate is given after the sale is complete.

  Taxable amount: $20,000

  Price with tax: $20,000 × 1.10 = $22,000

  Amount financed: $22,000

  Remaining loan balance if $2000 rebate is immediately applied to the loan: $22,000 -$2000 = $20,000

__

If the loan is for 5 years at 3%, the payments and total costs are ...

  Scenario 1: Monthly payment $355.78;

     total cost of loan: 60×355.78 = 21,346.80

  Scenario 2: Monthly payment $395.31;

     total cost of loan: 55×395.31 = $21,742.05  (note there are fewer payments because of the initial payment to principal of $2000)

__

Ted effectively has to finance an additional $200, equal to the sales tax on the rebate. So the delayed rebate costs him an extra $395.25 over the life of the loan.

_____

We have assumed certain tax and payment scenarios. If tax is not an issue, and if the loan terms are such that the rebate can be applied immediately to the loan amount, then <em>there may be no difference in total cost</em>, or the delayed rebate may result in a <em>lower</em> total cost due to the higher monthly payment.

The left side of a solid block is held at a constant temperature of 200°C. The temperature profile within the block is given by
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

with T = 50⁰C, we have:

50 = 200 - 5x - x²

<=> x² + 5x = 150

<=> x² + 5x - 150 = 0

=> x = 10

Simplfy <br> 2x+4/-3 = 12
nasty-shy [4]
So you have the equation (2x+4)/-3=12
Multiply by -3 on each side. 
2x+4=-36
2x=-20
x=-10
Hope this helps.

The area of the base of the oblique pentagonal pyramid is 50 cm^2 and the distance from the apex to the center of the pentagon i
Verdich [7]
The complete question in the attached figure

Part a) 
we know that
ABC is a right triangle
∠ACB=45°
AC=hypotenuse------> 6√2 cm
sin 45=AB/AC-----> AB=AC*sin 45----> AB=6√2*√2/2----> AB=6 cm

the answer part a) is
AB=6 cm

Part b) 
we know that
volume of the pyramid=(1/3)*Area of the base*height
area of the base=50 cm²
height=6 cm
so
volume of the pyramid=(1/3)*50*6----> 100 cm³

the answer part b) is 
100 cm³

Consider the quadratic function f(x) = –2x2 + 4x – 2. Find the y-intercept and the equation of the axis of symmetry.
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

The y-intercept is -2

The equation of the axis of symmetry is x = 1 ⇒ 3rd answer

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise the general form of the quadratic function

- The general form of the quadratic function is f(x) = ax² + bx + c,

 where a, b , c are constant

# a is the coefficient of x²

# b is the coefficient of x

# c is the y-intercept

- The meaning of y-intercept is the graph of the function intersects

 the y-axis at point (0 , c)

- The axis of symmetry of the function is a vertical line

  (parallel to the y-axis) and passing through the vertex of the curve

- We can find the vertex (h , k) of the curve from a and b, where

 h is the x-coordinate of the vertex and k is the y-coordinate of it

# h = -b/a and k = f(h)

- The equation of any vertical line is x = constant

- The axis of symmetry of the quadratic function passing through

  the vertex then its equation is x = h

* Now lets solve the problem

∵ f(x) = -2x² + 4x - 2

∴ a = -2 , b = 4 , c = -2

∵ The y-intercept is c

∴ The y-intercept is -2

∵ h = -b/2a

∴ h = -4/2(-2) = -4/-4 = 1

∴ The equation of the axis of symmetry is x = 1
