Sharon is 18 and would like to buy a house when she is 34.

it mean

we have been asked to find the discount factor for today's prices if the housing values increase 7% per year?

It mean

As we know that

Let current price be 100, then the future price will be

Hence the discount factor is

Hence the correct option is 33.9%.

78.59 is the mean

step-by-step explanation:

answer set (b) 0.5, 3/4 80% is in order from least to greatest.  

step-by-step explanation:

in order to compare rational numbers to each other, it is much easier if they are in the same form.   typically, the best form in which to evaluate rational numbers is in decimals.   in order to convert a percent to a decimal, you would divide the given percentage by 100.   you can also accomplish the conversion by moving the decimal point over two places to the left.   for example, the decimal value of 80% is 80/100, or 0.8.   in order to convert a fraction to a decimal, you need to divide the numerator by the denominator.   for example, 3/4 is 0.75.   so, for choice (b) 0.5 3/4 (0.75), 80% (0.8) is the only choice in which the numbers are in order from least to greatest.
