Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
To find the inverse of a function, switch the x and y values and isolate y. After switching the x and y values of
, we get
.
Now divide by 2 to isolate y:

The area of this rectangle is x*y. But, this problem requires that you represent the variable "y" in terms of "x" only.
A hint here is that the variable "y" represent a point on the line that connects the end points (0,b) and (a,0).
The first step to solve this problem is to get the expression of this line.
The slope of this line is: m = (0 - b)/(a - 0) = -b/a
Because the point (x,y) is on this line we have: y - b = m(x - 0)
y = (-b/a)x + b
Solution: Area of the rectangle = x*y = x*((-b/a)x + b) = (-b/a)x2 +bx
Answer:
the area is 30 correct me if Im wrong
Step-by-step explanation:
Present value of annuity PV = P(1 - (1 + r/t)^-nt) / (r/t)
where: p is the monthly payment, r is the APR = 14.12% = 0.1412, t is the number of payments in one year = 12, n is the number of years = 2.
1,120.87 = P(1 - (1 + 0.1412/12)^(-2 x 12)) / (0.1412 / 12)
0.1412(1120.87) = 12P(1 - (1 + 0.1412/12)^-24)
P = 0.1412(1120.87) / 12(1 - (1 + 0.1412/12)^-24) = $53.88
Minimum monthly payment = 3.15% of 1120.87(1 + 0.1412/12) = 0.0315 x 1120.87(1 + 0.1412/12) = $35.72
Therefore, his first payment will be greater than the minimum payment by 53.88 - 35.72 = $18.16
