Answer: $70 per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that x is the number of years that has passed and y is how much the stamp is worth.

So we know that in zero years the stamp was worth $420 because that is the time Sheri gave her brother Sam the stamp. That could bring up the coordinates (0,420) .

Now we know that in 8 years it was worth $980 and that could be the coordinates (8,980)

To find the rate of change we need to find the different between the y value and divide it by the difference in the x values.

420 - 980 = -560

0-8 = -8

-560/-8 = 70

The rate of change is 70 which means that it grew by $70 every year.

You purchase a car worth $25077 and make a down payment of $3560. You intend to repay the balance of the car with month end car

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

value of buyout is $4185.74

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

car worth = $25077

down payment = $3560

monthly payment = $336 = 336 × 6 = $2016 per semi annually

time = 5 year = 10 half yearly

rate = 4.04 %

to find out

value of final buyout

solution

we know here loan amount will be 25077 - 3560 = $21517

and we find present value first by formula that is

present value = $\frac{amount(1+r)^t - 1}{r (1+r)^t}$

put here t = 10 and r = $\frac{4.04}{200}$

present value = $\frac{2016(1+\frac{4.04}{200})^10 - 1}{r (1+\frac{4.04}{200})^10}$

present value = 18089.96

loan unpaid amount is here

loan unpaid amount = 21517 - 18089.96

loan unpaid amount = $3427.04

now we calculate value of buyout

that is express as

amount = principal × $(1+r)^{t}$

amount = 3427.04 × $(1+\frac{4.04}{200})^{10}$

amount = 4185.74

so value of buyout is $4185.74

Frank cut a 52 inch string into 3 pieces. The first piece is 20 inches long. The second piece is at least 12 inches long, but no

Eddi Din [679]

We need to figure out how much string would be left, after taking away the first two pieces.
We know that the first piece is 20 inches long, so we can say that there is 52-20 inches left, or 32 inches.

The second piece is between 12 and 18 inches, meaning that there would be between 32-12 and 32-18 inches left for the third piece, or 20 and 14 inches. This means that the third piece would be at least 14 inches long, but no more than 20, since we don’t have more string than that (20+12+20=52, and 20+14+18=52)

So we can say that x is greater or equal to 14, but less than or equal to 20, or:

14<=x<=20 (“<=“ is written like a normal “<“ sign with a line _ right under it)
