If you take out a $15,000 loan for a period of 36 months at a 5.4% annual interest rate, how much of your first monthly payment

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

The amount that will go towards the balance is 385.71.

Step-by-step explanation:

The information provided is:

P = Principal of loan = $15,000

r = interest rate = 5.4% p.a. = $\frac{0.054}{12}= 0.0045$

n = number of periods = 36

The amount of the monthly payment that will go towards the balance is:

Amount towards the balance = EMI - Interest

First compute the Equated monthly installments (EMI) as follows:

$EMI=\frac{P\times r\times (1+r)^{n}}{(1+r)^{n}-1} \\=\frac{15000\times0.0045\times(1+0.0045)^{36}}{(1+0.0045)^{36}-1} \\=\frac{79.3125}{0.175}\\=453.21$

Now compute the interest as follows:

$Interest=P\times r\\=15000\times0.0045\\=67.5$

The amount that will go towards the balance is,

Amount towards the balance = EMI - Interest

= 453.21 - 67.5

= 385.71

Thus, the amount that will go towards the balance is 385.71.

A cement bridge post is 24 inches square and 15 feet 9 inches in length. If the cement weighs 145 pounds per cubic foot, how muc

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

The answer is option (C), One cement bridge post weighs 9,135 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Get the total volume of a cement bridge post

The cement bridge post is in the shape of a cuboid, therefor the volume of the cement bridge post can be expressed as;

Volume of cement bridge post=Base area×Length

where;

Base area=(24^2) inches square

1 foot=12 inches

Convert 24 inches to foot=24/12=2^2=4 feet²

Length=15 feet and 9 inches

1 foot=12 inches

Convert 9 inches to foot=9/12=0.75 feet

Total length=(15+0.75)=15.75 feet

replacing;

Volume of cement bridge post=(4×15.75)=63 cubic feet

Volume of cement bridge post=63 cubic feet

Step 2: Get the total weight of the cement bridge post

Total weight of the cement bridge post=Weight per cubic foot×total volume of the cement bridge post

where;

Weight per cubic foot=145 pounds per cubic foot

Total volume of the cement bridge post=63 cubic feet

replacing;

Total weight of the cement bridge post=(145×63)=9,135 pounds

One cement bridge post weighs 9,135 pounds

Alex is 1.6 m tall and Noah is 1.5 times as tall as Alex. How much taller is Noah in centimeters?

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

80 centimeters taller

Step-by-step explanation:

First, convert Alex's height from meters to centimeters by multiplying by 100 because there are 100 centimeters in one meter to get 160 centimeters. Now multiply 160 centimeters by 1.5 to get Noah's height, 240 centimeters. Finally, since we need to find their difference in height, subtract Alex's height of 160 centimeters from Noah's height of 240 to get 80 centimeters.

A cubic box is completely filled with 2,179 g of water. What is the length of one side of the box, in meters? m Explain your rea

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

$l\approx 1.296\,cm$

Step-by-step explanation:

The water density is approximately 1 gram per cubic centimeter, which means that 1 gram of water occupies a volume of a cubic centimeter. Hence, 2.179 grams occupies a volume of 2.179 cubic centimeters.

Let assume volume occupied by the water has a cube-like shape, whose side has the following measure:

$l = \sqrt[3]{2.179\,m^{3}}$

$l\approx 1.296\,cm$
