FromTheMoon [43]
If we refer his car payments by month base on the 48-month car loan at 6.8%, his payment will be $1,462/month. And if we refer to the full cost of the car by using the 48-month loan it can cost $74,476. After 20 months mike decided to pay the remaining payments for his car. So if mike pays responsibly to his $1,462/month, it cost to $29,240. To get the remaining payment just subtract the total cost of the car to the 2o months he pays the loan.

a rectangle is 6 units "wide" and x -8 use long it has the same area of a triangle with a height of 7 units and a base of x minu
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

  42 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the rectangle is the product of its length and width:

  area = 6(x -8)

The area of the triangle is half the product of its base and height:

  area = (1/2)(x-3)·7

These two areas are equal, so we have ...

  6(x -8) = (1/2)(x -3)(7)

  6x -48 = 3.5x -10.5 . . . . eliminate parentheses

  2.5x = 37.5 . . . . . . . . . . . add 48 -3.5x

  x = 15 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2.5

The area of the rectangle is ...

  area = 6(15 -8) = 42 . . . . square units.

ken wants to rent a car for a week and to pay to more than $130. how far can he drive if the car rental cost $94 a week plus $0.
cupoosta [38]
If Ken wants to pay more than 130, he needs to drive more than 90 miles. You subtract 94 from 130, which equals 36. 36 divided by .4 (for the price per mile) and it equals 90.
