Fern ir read 5/7 of the pages in his 98 page book.how many pages does he have left?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: fern has read 5/7 pages OF his 98 page book. I was taught that OF can mean to multiply.
so multiply 5/7 by 98 and you get 70.
70 is not the answer though . That is only how much he has rrad . and the question asks how much he has LEFT.
So Now subtract 98-70 . which equals 28
fern has 28 more pages left.

In the figure ABC and XBY are isosceles triangles. AC=6 cm. And XY=4 cm. Find the area of the shaded region.

Answers

Area of the triangle is expressed by the product of the base and the height divided by two. This is from the idea that a parallelogram having an area of length times width can be divided yielding to two triangles. 

Area of shaded region = Area of triangle ABC - Area of triangle XBY
Area of triangle ABC = (6) (6) / 2 = 18 cm^2
Area of triangle XBY = (4) (4) / 2 = 8 cm^2
Area of shaded region = 18 - 8 = 10 cm^2

Mr. Chavis needed to take out a loan for $74,400 for a 2016 XJ luxury Jaguar sedan. If he takes 5 years to pay off the loan at a rate of 5.5%, how much will he pay in interest at the end of the 5 years?

Answers

Mr. Chavis will pay $20,460 in interest at the end of 5 years.

Simple interest will be computed by multiplying the principal to its interest rate and term.

I = P x r x t

P = 74,400
r = 5.5% or 0.055
t = 5 yrs

I = 74,400 x 0.055 x 5
i = 20,460
