Calculating Multipliers :

5.2    Calculate multipliers for the two fractions

   Denote the Least Common Multiple by  L.C.M

   Denote the Left Multiplier by  Left_M

   Denote the Right Multiplier by  Right_M

   Denote the Left Deniminator by  L_Deno

   Denote the Right Multiplier by  R_Deno

  Left_M = L.C.M / L_Deno = 5

  Right_M = L.C.M / R_Deno = 2

Making Equivalent Fractions :

5.3      Rewrite the two fractions into equivalent fractions

Two fractions are called equivalent if they have the same numeric value.

For example :  1/2   and  2/4  are equivalent,  y/(y+1)2   and  (y2+y)/(y+1)3  are equivalent as well.

To calculate equivalent fraction , multiply the Numerator of each fraction, by its respective Multiplier.

  L. Mult. • L. Num.       5

  ——————————————————  =   ——

        L.C.M             20

  R. Mult. • R. Num.      9y • 2

  ——————————————————  =   ——————

        L.C.M               20  

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

5.4       Adding up the two equivalent fractions

Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

5 + 9y • 2     18y + 5

——————————  =  ———————

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{1}{4}+\frac{9}{10}y - \frac{3}{5}y+\frac{7}{8}\\\\=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{7}{8}+\frac{9}{10}y-\frac{3}{5}y\\\\

Combine like terms. 1/4 and 7/8 are like terms and LCD of 4 and 8 is 8

9/10y and -3/5y are like terms and LCD of 10 , 5 is 10

= \frac{1*2}{4*2}+\frac{7}{8}+\frac{9}{10}y-\frac{3*2}{5*2}y\\\\=\frac{2}{8}+\frac{7}{8}+\frac{9}{10}y-\frac{6}{10}y\\\\=\frac{9}{8}+\frac{3}{10}y

Marilyn uses a credit card with a 19.9% APR compounded monthly to pay for car repairs totaling $991.38. She can pay $410 per mon
Leokris [45]
Marilyn's finance charge at the end of the first month will be
  $991.38 × 0.199/12 = $16.44
The balance subject to the next month's finance charge will be
  $991.38 +16.44 -410.00 = $597.82

The finance charge at the end of the second month will be
  $597.82 × 0.199/12 = $9.91
The balance remaining after the second payment will be
  $597.82 +9.91 -410.00 = $197.73

The finance charge applied at the end of the third month is
  $197.73 × .199/12 = $3.28
so Marilyn can make one final payment of
  $197.73 +3.28 = $201.01
to pay off the balance.

In all, Marilyn has paid 2×$410.00 +201.01 = 
  $1021.01 . . . . . . . . corresponds to the first choice

_____
In real life, Marilyn's credit card may not accrue any finance charge until after the first statement on which the charge appears. Thus the total cost of the purchase may be only $1004.02. The attached spreadsheet shows the beginning balance and the finance charges for each month for the two different scenarios.
