Answer:

  2.5 years

  $736 in interest

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between the values in an amortization is ...

  A = P(r/12)/(1 -(1 +r/12)^(-12t))

Here, we have A = 140, P = 3400, r = 0.16 and we want to find t

  140 = 3400(0.16/12)/(1 -(1 +0.16/12)^(-12t))

  1 -(1 +0.16/12)^(-12t) = 1/3.0882353

  (1 +0.16/12)^(-12t) = 0.67619048

Taking logarithms gives ...

  -12t·log(1 +0.16/12) = log(0.67619048)

  t = log(0.67619048)/(-12·log(1+0.16/12)) ≈ 2.46177

It will take about 2.5 years to pay off the loan.

__

The total of payments is ...

  (2.46177)(12)($140) = $4135.77

so, the interest paid is ...

  $4135.77 -3400 = $735.77

You will pay about $736 in interest over the life of the loan.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The number of payments is calculated to be about 29.54. You would probably make 30 payments, with the last payment being a different amount than $140. The actual amount will depend on when the payment is made, and the amount of it that is finance charge. We believe the remaining balance after 29 payments will be $75. After a full month, the finance charge due on that amount is $1.00, bringing the total amount of interest paid to $736.

If the loan is paid off in the middle of the month, the interest due is reduced. Above, we have calculated interest based on a last payment made part way through the month. We rounded up, partly because of the ambiguity in the final payment.

Quadrilateral EFGH was dilated by a scale factor of 2 from the center (1, 0) to create E'F'G'H'. Which characteristic of dilatio
Juliette [100K]

The answer choice which is the characteristic of dilations comparing both segments is; A segment in the image is proportionally longer or shorter than its corresponding segment in the pre-image

<h3>Which answer choice compares segment E'F' to segment EF?</h3>

By consider the coordinates of the quadrilaterals EFGH and E'F'G'H' as given in the task content image, it follows that the coordinates are as follows;

  • E(0, 1), F(1, 1), G(2, 0), and H(0, 0)

  • E'(-1, 2), F'(1, 2), G'(3, 0), and H'(-1, 0)

Upon computation of the length of the segments, it follows that the two segments are in proportions. Hence, the answer choice which is correct is; A segment in the image is proportionally longer or shorter than its corresponding segment in the pre-image.

Remark:

  • A segment that passes through the center of dilation in the pre-image continues to pass through the center of dilation in the image.
  • A segment in the image has the same length as its corresponding segment in the pre-image.
  • A segment that passes through the center of dilation in the pre-image does not pass through the center of dilation in the image.
  • A segment in the image is proportionally longer or shorter than its corresponding segment in the pre-image.

If log 2^x = log 3, then which is the value of x?
natulia [17]

There's a property of logs I want you to remember, that is:

log(a)ᵇ = b*log(a)

We'll be using this property to solve the question

<u>Finding x:</u>

log(2)ˣ = log(3)

x*log(2) = log(3)                                     [using the property mentioned above]

x = log(3) / log(2)                                 [dividing both sides by log(2)]

Hence, the correct answer is option E.
