Answer:

The original amount of the mortgage was $66231.45.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the original amount of the mortgage, you can use the following formula to calculate the present value:

PV=FV/(1+r/n)^nt

PV=present value

FV=future value= 775*12*12=111.600

r=rate of interest=0.0440

n= number of compounding periods= 2

t= time in years=12

Now, you can replace the values on the formula:

PV=111600/(1+(0.0440/2))^2*12

PV=111600/(1.022)^24

PV=111600/1.685

PV=66231.45

According to this, the answer is that the original amount of the mortgage was $66231.45.

What are the solutions to the system of equations?
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:the third option is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of equations are

y = 2x^2 - 5x - 7 - - - - - - - - - - -1

y = 2x + 2 - - - - - - - - - - - - - 2

We would equate equation 1 and equation 2. It becomes

2x^2 - 5x - 7 = 2x + 2

2x^2 - 5x - 2x - 7 - 2 = 0

2x^2 - 7x - 9 = 0

We would find two numbers such that their sum or difference is -7x and their product is - 18x^2. The two numbers are 2x and - 9x. Therefore

2x^2 + 2x - 9x - 9 = 0

2x(x + 1) - 9(x + 1) = 0

2x - 9 = 0 or x + 1 = 0

2x = 9 or x = - 1

x = 9/2 = 4.5

Substituting x = 4.5 or x = -1 into equation 2, it becomes

y = 2 × 4.5 + 2 or y = 2 × - 1 + 2

y = 11 or y = 0

Therefore, the solutions are

(4.5, 11) (- 1, 0)
