Benson has a bankruptcy on his credit report, so he pays higher interest rates on his current loans. He calculates that the extra money he pays in additional interest each year, if invested at the rate of 2% for one year, could earn him simple interest totaling $180. How much does Benson pay in additional interest each month?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Given:
Interest = 180
term = 1 year
Interest rate = 2%

We need to get the principal amount using the simple interest formula.

Interest = Principal * interest rate * term
180 = P * 2% * 1
180 / 2% = P
9,000 = Principal

Benson pays an additional interest of 9,000 each year. A monthly payment of 750.

9,000 / 12 months = 750 per month.

Answer 2

Answer:

Based on the amount that Benson could earn if he invested the additional interest for one year, the additional interest per month is $750.

What additional interest is Benson paying?

This can be found by the formula:

= (Simple interest amount earned / Number of months in year) / Simple interest rate

Solving gives:

= (180 / 12) / 0.02

= 15 / 0.02

= $750

Yes, because they are random. There might have been something crucial you left out that would change that considering the wording, but with the info you have given, the answer is yes.

A farmer builds a rectangular pen with a perimeter of 116 feet. If the length is 5 feet more than the width, what is the width?

Answers

The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is:
A=2l+2w.
We know the area is 116, so we can plug that in for A. Now, we cant solve the equation yet because it still has two variables. Since we know the length is 5 feet greater than the width, we can rewrite l in terms of w. So here is what our new equation will look like:
116=2(w+5)+2w
Now lets solve:
116=2w+10+2w
106=4w
w=26.5 ft.
The width is 26.5 ft.

Log base 2 of x + log base 2 of y =6

Answers

x > 0; y > 0;
Log base 2 of x + log base 2 of y =6 <=> log base 2 ( xy) = 6 <=> xy = 64;
but, x + y = 34 => x = 32 and y = 2 or, x = 2 and y = 34.

Enter an equation in point-slope formThe slope of the line is 2/5, and it contains the point: (−2, 7).

Answers

Answer:

y = 2/5x + 39/5

Step-by-step explanation:

point slope form is y = mx + b

so far we have y = 2/5x + b

m is slope which is given. We need to find b which is y-intercept.

They give us the point (-2,7). We can plug this into the equation to find b.

7 = 2/5(-2) + b

7 = -4/5 + b

b = 39/5

The equation now looks like y = 2/5x + 39/5

Raul and his friends are hiking a 4-mile trail. After 2 hours of hiking, they turn off the path to find a spot for lunch, and then hike back to the trail and continue to the end. Write an inequality to represent x, the total distance they hiked.

Answers

So,

Making some major assumptions, such as the trail being circular, we can disregard the fact that "Group Raul" hiked 2 hours before taking a lunch break. "Group Raul" hiked off the trail (violating Leave No Trace principles) to find a lunch break spot. So they hiked at least 4 miles.

x > 4 miles

Because they have to hike back to the trail head, and the track is circular, they must hike AT LEAST 4 miles.
so it should be 4<_y
there :)
