3. Suppose your credit card has a balance of $7800 and an annual interest rate of 16%. You decide
to pay off the balance over three years. If there are no further purchases charged to the card,

a. How much must you pay each month?
b. How much total interest will you pay?

Now suppose you decide to pay off the balance over one year instead of three.

c. How much more must you pay each month?

d. How much less will you pay in total interest?

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The amortization formula is used to find the monthly payment (A):

  A = P(r/n)/(1 -(1 +r/n)^(-nt))

for a loan of a principal amount P at annual rate r compounded n times per year for t years.

For a borrowed amount of $7800 at 16% compounded monthly for 3 years, the payment will be ...

  A = $7800(.16/12)/(1 -(1 +.16/12)^(-12·3)) ≈ $274.22

You must pay $274.22 each month to pay off the credit card in 3 years.

__

b) The total amount repaid is 36 times this monthly payment, so is ...

  $274.22 × 36 = $9871.92

The amount by which this exceeds the principal borrowed is ...

  $9871.92 -7800 = $2071.92

You will pay $2071.92 in interest.

__

c) Changing the time period to 1 year gives the payment value ...

  A = $7800(.16/12)/(1 -(1 +.16/12)^(-12·1)) ≈ $707.70

The additional amount you must pay is ...

  $707.70 -274.22 = $433.48

You must pay $433.48 more each month.

__

d) Your total interest with the higher payments will be ...

  $707.70×12 -7800 = $692.40

The difference in interest amounts is ...

  $2071.92 -692.40 = $1379.52

You will pay $1379.52 less in total interest.

Caveat

Here, the monthly amounts are rounded and the total repayment amount is based on that rounded value. In an actual payment situation, the final payment will be adjusted by a small amount to account for the fact that the monthly payment shown is not exact. That will affect the total interest and the difference in interest.

option 2 is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

we are given two inequality equation

x+y> 5 and -3x+2y< -2

first we draw the graph of both function using t-table method

equation: x+y> 5

for x=0, y=5

for x=-5, y=0

table:

x   :   0     5

y   :   5     0

test point (0,0) , 0> 5

false

equation: -3x+2y< -2

for x=0, y=-1

for x=2, y=4

table:

x   :   0     2

y   : -1       4

test point (0,0) , 0< -2

true

now we draw the graph. see the attachment for graph.

common region would be solution set.

option 2 is correct.

but which class are u may know that first
