Using the unpaid balance method, find the current months finance charge on a credit card account having the following transactio

ns.
Last month’s balance: $385
Last payment: $250
Annual interest rate: 21%
Purchases: $303
Returns: $158
(It would be great if you could tell me how to use the formula I=Prt where previous months balance + finance charge + purchases made - returns - payments)

Answer:

$4.94

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations to use:

  •    Unpaid balance = previous balance  - (payments & credits)
  •    Finance charge = unpaid balance x periodic rate
  •    New balance = unpaid balance + finance charge + new purchases

The periodic rate is the interest rate charged over a certain number of time periods. The interest on a credit card is usually calculated monthly, so if the annual interest rate is 21% then the periodic (monthly) rate is:

21 ÷ 12 = 1.75%

Convert the periodic rate from percent into decimal by dividing the percent value by 100:  periodic rate = 1.75/100 = 0.0175

Unpaid balance = previous balance  - (payments & credits)

⇒ Unpaid balance = 385 - 250 = 135

Finance change = unpaid balance x periodic rate

⇒ Finance change = 135 x 0.0175 = 2.3625

New balance = unpaid balance + finance charge + new purchases

⇒  New balance = 135 + 2.3625 + (303 - 158) = 282.3525

Therefore, the following month's finance charge on the new balance (assuming no payments are made) = 282.3525 x 0.0175 = 4.94

Given the functions f and g, explain why you cannot find f⋅g.
Delvig [45]

We can't write the product because there is no common input in the tables of g(x) and f(x).

<h3>Why you cannot find the product between the two functions?</h3>

If two functions f(x) and g(x) are known, then the product between the functions is straightforward.

g(x)*f(x)

Now, if we only have some coordinate pairs belonging to the function, we only can write the product if we have two coordinate pairs with the same input.

For example, if we know that (a, b) belongs to f(x) and (a, c) belongs to g(x), then we can get the product evaluated in a as:

(g*f)(a) = f(a)*g(a) = b*c

Particularly, in this case, we can see that there is no common input in the two tables, then we can't write the product of the two functions.

Answer:

t = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

you have -8 and twelve you equation is x -12 = -8 so we just have to flip the equation around to make it x = 12 -8 which is easy . You just have to make sure you don't get mixed up while flipping the signs.

a helicopter is flying at 150mph on a course with a bearing of 130°. If the helicopter experiences a crosswind blowing southeast
romanna [79]

150-25=125mph

130-25=105

This means it was going 125mph and that it dropped an altitude of 25 degrees because of the wind and the slow down of the helicopter
