Today hugo got a new credit card, and he made a purchase of s$1400. the card offers an introductory apr of 0% for the first 5 months and a standard apr of 30.8% thereafter. if the card compounds interest monthly, how much money will the introductory apr save hugo in interest over the first 5 months? (assume that hugo will make no payments or additional purchases during the first 5 months, and ignore any possible late payment fees.)

189 (I don't remember the decimal)

Step-by-step explanation:

I just took the apex quiz

x ≥ 18 is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

let "a number" = x

(2/3)x + 17 ≥ 29

isolate the variable (x). do the opposite of pemdas (parenthesis, exponent (& root), multiplication, division, addition, subtraction).

first, subtract 17 from both sides.

(2/3)x + 17 (-17) ≥ 29 (-17)

(2/3)x ≥ 29 - 17

(2/3)x ≥ 12

next, multiply 3/2 to both sides to isolate the x

(3/2)(2/3)x ≥ 12(3/2)

x ≥ 12(3/2)

simplify. multiply, then divide

x ≥ (12 * 3)/2

x ≥ (36)/2

x ≥ 18

x ≥ 18 is your answer
