Answer:
f(x) < –x2 + x – 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph is going down so we know that there is a maximum, therefore the A value has to be negative. This rules out f(x) < x2 + x – 1 and f(x) > x2 + x – 1
. The shaded area of the graph is below which indicates that f(x) has to be less than the function. This means the correct answer is f(x) < –x2 + x – 1 .
The first one because the left bound is included [ and the right one is not )
<span>B(n) = A(1 + i)^n - (P/i)[(1 + i)^n - 1]
where B is the balance after n payments are made, i is the monthly interest rate, P is the monthly payment and A is the initial amount of loan.
We require B(n) = 0...i.e. balance of 0 after n months.
so, 0 = A(1 + i)^n - (P/i)[(1 + i)^n - 1]
Then, with some algebraic juggling we get:
n = -[log(1 - (Ai/P)]/log(1 + i)
Now, payment is at the beginning of the month, so A = $754.43 - $150 => $604.43
Also, i = (13.6/100)/12 => 0.136/12 per month
i.e. n = -[log(1 - (604.43)(0.136/12)/150)]/log(1 + 0.136/12)
so, n = 4.15 months...i.e. 4 payments + remainder
b) Now we have A = $754.43 - $300 = $454.43 so,
n = -[log(1 - (454.43)(0.136/12)/300)]/log(1 + 0.136/12)
so, n = 1.54 months...i.e. 1 payment + remainder

Answer:
2,250.
Step-by-step explanation:
Add all of the bills together. It says the minimum, so in order to pay all of the bills, you'll need 2,250.
