By paying $1500 cash and the balance is equal monthly payments, how many months would it take to pay for a car costing $12,495?
Elden [556K]

The monthly installments need to be paid is $10995.

To determine the number of months needed to pay off the remaining balance. We need to know the monthly installment.

<h3>What is installments?</h3>

When you get an installment loan, you get the money you borrowed or the item you bought right away.

  • You pay it off in installments, which are regularly scheduled payments that may include interest.
  • For a set number of months, or years, you generally owe the same amount on every installment.
  • When the loan is fully repaid, the account is permanently closed.

Now, as per the question;

Amount paid in cash = $1500

Remaining balance which is to be paid as monthly installments

= $12495 - $1500

=$12495 − $1500

=$10995

Thus, the monthly installments are $10995.

Now, to determine the number of months needed to pay off the remaining balance. The monthly installment is need to be known.

As a result, information on monthly installments is lacking.

Write the explicit formula for the geometric sequence. Then find the fifth term in the sequence.
Blababa [14]
Sequence: -4, 8, -16

rate of increase: -16/8 = -2
 
If you make A1 the first term in the sequence you must use (n-1) in the explicit formula. If you go backwards in the sequence to find A0 = 2 then you would use n.

The don't have A0 = 2 listed as an option so we use A1 = -4 and (n-1) terms.

An = -4(-2)^(n-1)

Solving for the 5th term A5, use n = 5

A5 = -4(-2)^(5-1)
A5 = -4(16)
A5 = -64

So the answer is B.

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 7 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Percent of accuracy = 35%

Times she is at bat = 20

Times she hit the ball = ?

Process

1.- Use proportions to solve this problem

20 times will be the 100%  because is the total number of times she is at bat.

                     20 times ------------------ 100%

                       x            ------------------   35%

                       x = (35 x 20) / 100

                       x = 700 / 100

                       x = 7

2.- Conclusion

From 20 times she is at bat, she will hit the ball 7 times.
