Answer:

  b.  $97.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Your number sense tells you a loan of this duration will have a monthly payment not much greater than $5000/60 ≈ $83. Of the offered answer choices, $97.25 is the most reasonable guess.

__

If you work this out using a financial calculator, it will tell you the monthly payment is $97.25.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

As a first approximation, the interest paid on an amortized loan is about half of the simple interest amount. We can guess at the monthly payment by computing the payment on a simple interest loan at half the rate.

The total due on a $5000 loan at 3.125% interest is ...

  A = P(1 +rt) = 5000(1 +5(0.03125)) = 5000(1.15625) = 5781.25

If 1/60 of that is paid each month, the payment is about $96.35. This guess is within 10% of the actual payment value. With suitable approximations, you can do this calculation without a calculator.

If AC = 40, find the length of JK.
lesantik [10]

Answer:

JK = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Δ BKJ and Δ BCA are similar triangles and ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

\frac{JK}{AC} = \frac{BK}{BC} , substitute values

\frac{JK}{40} = \frac{3}{5} ( cross- multiply )

5JK = 120 ( divide both sides by 5 )

JK = 24

A relation from a set X to a set Y is called a function if each element of X is related to exactly one element in Y. That is, gi
defon

Answer:

An ordered pair is a set of inputs and outputs and represents a relationship between the two values. A relation is a set of inputs and outputs, and a function is a relation with one output for each input.

h

here is a exstended explantion:

A relation from a set X to a set Y is called a function if each element of X is related to exactly one element in Y. That is, given an element x in X, there is only one element in Y that x is related to.

For example, consider the following sets X and Y. I'll give you a relation between them that is not a function, and one that is.

   X = { 1, 2, 3 }

   Y = { a , b , c, d }

   Relation from X to Y (i.e., in XxY ) : { (1,a) , (2, b) , (2, c) , (3, d) }

This relation is not a function from X to Y because the element 2 in X is related to two different elements, b and c. (Note, if you transpose the ordered pairs you <i>would</i> have a function from Y to X - can you see WHY?)

   Relation from X to Y that is a function: { (1,d) , (2,d) , (3, a) }

This is a function since each element from X is related to only one element in Y. Note that it is okay for two different elements in X to be related to the same element in Y. It's still a function, it's just not a one-to-one function.
