Ricky is taking out a personal loan for $12,000 to remodel his kitchen. He would like the lowest monthly payment possible, even if it means a bigger finance charge in the end. His bank has offered him a loan at 13% interest for 36 months or 12% interest for 60 months, both of which are compounded monthly. Which of the following statements most accurately describes what Ricky should be thinking? a. More payments with the 60 month loan will give him the lowest monthly payment. b. Fewer payments with the 36 month loan will give him the lowest monthly payment. c. The 60 month loan comes with a bigger finance charge and, thus, a bigger monthly payment. d. The 36 month loan comes with a bigger finance charge and, thus, a bigger monthly payment.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer : The correct Option is A.

Step-by-step Explanation :

To solve this we are going to use the monthly payment formula:

[tex]\text{Payment = }\frac{Rate\times Principal}{1-(1+Rate)^{-n}}}[/tex]

where, Principal is the amount of the loan

            n  is the number of periods.

Option A. 13% interest for 36 months compounded monthly

Ricky is taking out a personal loan for $12,000 and term of the loan is 36 months ⇒ n = 36. To find the rate per period, we first need to convert the interest rate to decimal form ⇒ Rate = 0.13.

Now since the bank is charging him the interest rate for the 36 months, we just need to divide the interest rate (in decimal form) by the number of months (36) to find the rate per period

[tex]\implies\text{Rate per period = }\frac{0.13}{36}[/tex]

So, putting all these values in the formula, We get monthly payment of loan A = $356.07

Option B : 12% interest for 60 months compounded monthly

interest rate in decimal form = 0.12

By replacing the values in formula the monthly payment of loan B is $212.44

Option C and Option D are obviously denied as the financial charge is not effected by the monthly payments so ricky will not be thinking about the financial charge.

Now, Monthly payments of loan B are significantly low than that of monthly payments of loan A.

So, we can conclude that the correct answer is  a. More payments with the 60 month loan will give him the lowest monthly payment.

Caroline bought 20 shares of stock at 10 ½, and after 10 months the value of the stocks was 11 ¼. If Caroline were to sell all her shares of this stock, how much profit would she make? A. $210 B. $10 C. $15 D. $225

Answers

20 shares at 10 1/2 (or 10.5) = 20 * 10.5 = 210
20 shares at 11 1/4 (or 11.25) = 20 * 11.25 = 225

so the profit made would be : 225 - 210 = $ 15 <==

A section of a roller coaster track forms a parallelogram ABCD. If m∠ABC = 72°, what is m∠DAB? A) 72° B) 108° C) 144° D) 216°

Answers

check the picture below.

Answer: Option 'B' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

A section of a roller coaster track forms a parallelogram ABCD.

If m∠ABC = 72°

We need to find the  m∠DAB,

Since ABCD is a parallelogram .

So, "Sum of interior angles on the same side is supplementary":

[tex]m\angle ABC+m\angle DAB=180\textdegree\\\\72\textdegree+m\angle DAB=180\textdegree\\\\m\angle DAB=180\textdegree-72\textdegree\\\\m\angle DAB=108\textdegree[/tex]

Hence, Option 'B' is correct.

Complete each statement regarding an angle θ and its reference angle theta hat using radian measure. (Assume 0 ≤ θ < 2π. Give your answers in terms of θ.) (a) If θ is in QI, then theta hat = . (b) If θ is in QII, then theta hat = . (c) If θ is in QIII, then theta hat = . (d) If θ is in QIV, then theta hat = .

Answers

The reference angle is simply the acute angle between the terminal side and the x-axis

The terminal angles in the four quadrants are

[tex]\bar \theta = \theta[/tex].[tex]\bar \theta = \pi - \theta[/tex].[tex]\bar \theta = \theta - \pi[/tex].[tex]\bar \theta = 2\pi - \theta[/tex]

The given parameters are:

[tex]\theta \to[/tex] reference angle

[tex]\bar \theta \to[/tex] terminal angle

(a) If the reference angle is in the first quadrant

In the first quadrant, the x-axis is at [tex]0\ rad[/tex]

So, the terminal angle is:

[tex]\bar \theta = \theta - 0[/tex]

[tex]\bar \theta = \theta[/tex]

(b) If the reference angle is in the second quadrant

In the second quadrant, the x-axis is at [tex]\pi \ rad[/tex],

While the reference angle is between [tex]\frac{\pi}{2}[/tex] and [tex]\pi \ rad[/tex]

It means that, we have to subtract the reference angle from the x-axis

So, the terminal angle is:

[tex]\bar \theta = \pi - \theta[/tex]

(c) If the reference angle is in the third quadrant

Here, the x-axis is still at [tex]\pi \ rad[/tex],

But the reference angle is between [tex]\pi \ rad[/tex] and [tex]\frac{3}{2}\pi[/tex]

It means that, we have to subtract the x-axis from the reference angle.

So, the terminal angle is:

[tex]\bar \theta = \theta - \pi[/tex]

(d) If the reference angle is in the fourth quadrant

Here, the x-axis is at [tex]2\pi \ rad[/tex]

And the reference angle is between  [tex]\frac{3}{2}\pi[/tex] and [tex]2\pi \ rad[/tex]

It means that, we have to subtract the reference angle from the x-axis.

So, the terminal angle is:

[tex]\bar \theta = 2\pi - \theta[/tex]

Final answer:

When dealing with angles in radians and their reference angles, each quadrant has a specific relationship for determining the reference angle based on the given angle θ.

Explanation:

Radian Measure with Reference Angles:

If θ is in QI, then θ hat = θ

If θ is in QII, then θ hat = π - θ

If θ is in QIII, then θ hat = θ - π

If θ is in QIV, then θ hat = 2π - θ

F=J+Jrt solve following formula for t

Answers

F=j+jrt
F-j=jrt
t=(F-j)/jr
Final answer:

To solve the formula F=J+Jrt for 't', first, subtract 'J' from both sides to get F-J=Jrt. Then, divide both sides by 'Jr', for the final equation for 't' = (F-J)/Jr.

Explanation:

This physics-related mathematics question is asking you to solve the given formula F=J+Jrt for 't'. To isolate 't', we first want to eliminate 'J' from the right side. We do this by subtracting 'J' from both sides of the equation. This gives us F-J=Jrt.

Then, we divide both sides by 'Jr'. When we do this, we are left with t=(F-J)/Jr as the rearranged formula with 't' as the subject. This results in 't' being isolated in the equation, which answers the student's question.

Two right triangles are congruent. Find the value of x.
right triangle with angle of 33 degrees, right triangle with angle of 9 x minus 15 degrees
Select one:
a. 5
b. 6
c. 8
d. 12

Answers

Given that the two right triangles are congruent, there are two possibilities.

9x - 15 is equal to the angle 33°  or 9x - 15 is equal to the other angle of the first triangle.

Let's probe with the first option:

9x - 15 = 33 => 9x = 33 + 15 = 48

=> x = 48 / 9 = 5,33, which is no in the list of options.

Now, let's probe the second option.

The other angle of the first right triangle is 90° - 33° = 57°

Then, 9x - 15 = 57

=> 9x = 57 + 15 = 72

=> x = 72 / 9 = 8

Which is the option c. 8.

So, I am sure that if you have a figure it will be compatible with that answer, else yet the procedure to find the answer is what I have used here.

hope that helps, God bless!

The solution of expression is, x = 6

We have to give that,

An expression to simplify as,

⇒ 45 + 5/6x = 50

Now, Simplify the expression by combining like terms,

⇒ 45 + 5/6x = 50

Subtract 45 on both sides,

⇒ 45 + 5/6x - 45 = 50 - 45

⇒ 5/6x = 5

Multiply by 6 on both sides,

⇒ 5x = 5 × 6

⇒ 5x = 30

Divide by 5 on both sides,

⇒ x = 30/5

⇒ x = 6

So, The solution is, x = 6
