Answer:
- The richest quintile has the ability to save a larger percentage of its income.
- Individuals experiencing temporary fluctuations in their incomes are more likely to maintain moderate spending habits.
Explanation:
First part of this question reads:
In the United States, the richest quintile of the population receives 13 times as much income as the poorest quintile. However, the richest quintile only spends 4 times as much as the poorest quintile.
The richest quantile can afford to save more than the poorest quantile because they get enough income to manage their daily needs and then save. The poorest quantile on the other hand face a daily struggle and so have to spend all or most of their income to survive.
When the richer quantile goes through temporary fluctuations, they maintain moderate spending because they know it is temporary and so they keep saving. This is not the case for the poorer quantiles who have to spend according to their income - regardless of its fluctuating - to survive.

Answer:
P(13,2) = 169
Explanation:
We have to calculate the combinations for left and right shoe considering is not the same having a right shoe blue and left red than having a right shoe rend and a left red.
there are 13 pairs from whcih she will take a single pair:

where:
n = number of pair = 13
r = shoes = 2 (one on each foot)

P(13,2) = 169
Answer:
5.784%
Explanation:
PV = $91000
PMT = -$1750
N = 60
FV = $0
<em>Using the financial calculator to solve for I/Y</em>
Interest yield = CPT I/Y(91000, -1750, 60, 0)
Interest yield = 0.00482
Interest yield = 0.482%
Highest rate APR = 0.482%*12
Highest rate APR = 5.784%
So, assuming monthly compounding, the highest rate i can afford on a 60-month APR loan is 5.784%.
