PLEASE HELP Meryl buys new baseball equipment for $2000. The purchase made is with a credit card that has a 19% APR. Meryl makes a $150 payment monthly. How many months will it take Meryl to pay off the balance?

It will take Meryl 15.09 months to pay off the balance.

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be calculated using the formula for calculating the present value of an ordinary annuity as follows:

PV = P * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r) …………………………………. (1)

Where;

PV = Present value or the cost of the new baseball equipment = $2000

P = Monthly payment = $150

r = Monthly interest rate = annual percentage rate (APR) / 12 = 19% / 12 = 0.19 / 12 = 0.0158333333333333

n = number of months it will take Meryl to pay off the balance = ?

Substitute the values into equation (1) and solve for n, we have:

2000 = 150 * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.0158333333333333))^n) / 0.0158333333333333)

2000 / 150 = (1 - (1 / 1.0158333333333333)^n) / 0.0158333333333333

13.3333333333333 = (1 - 0.984413453650536^n) / 0.0158333333333333

13.3333333333333 * 0.0158333333333333 = 1 - 0.984413453650536^n

0.21111111111111 = 1 - 0.984413453650536^n

0.984413453650536^n = 1 - 0.21111111111111

0.984413453650536^n = 0.78888888888889

loglinearize both sides, we have:

nlog0.984413453650536 = log0.78888888888889

n = log0.78888888888889 / log0.984413453650536

n = -0.102984160720249 / -0.00682245957075587

n = 15.0948729929724

Rounding to 2 decimal places, we have:

n = 15.09

Therefore, it will take Meryl 15.09 months to pay off the balance.

step-by-step explanation:

the correct answer is a) they believe they have a "just cause."

islamic terrorists justify their violent actions because they believe they have a "just cause."

every act of terrorism of islamic sects is done “in the name of allah”. that justifies their actions. islam people who commit those terrorist attacks are not afraid to die. that is why the attacks have horrible consequences. they know they are going to die and they are proud to do it because it is in the name of allah, so it is justified and is for a “good cause.”

since the very beginning of the conflict with israel, islam is fighting a “sacred war”, respecting the words stated in the qur’an. they fight against the domination of the western countries and to defend their occupied territories.
