Jeff obtained a simple interest loan from his bank for $6000 at a 12.7% interest loan over a 3-year loan term. using the simple interest formula, what will be jeff's total repayment over the life of the loan?

$8286

Step-by-step explanation:

Jeff must obviously repay the original $6000 loan, plus simple interest.

The formula for simple interest is i = prt, where p is the principal, r is the interest rate as a decimal fraction, and t is the time, in years.  Here we have

i = $6000*0.127*3, or i = $2286.

Adding these two quantitites together, we get A = p + prt +

$6000 + $2286 = $8286

(b) 240

step-by-step explanation:

first, we use the pythagorean formula using the given side lengths to find x. then we use x to find the side lengths. then we add the side lengths to find the perimeter.

pythagorean theorem formula:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(x - 20)^2 + (x - 40)^2 = x^2

x^2 - 40x + 400 + x^2 - 80x + 1600 = x^2

x^2 -120x + 2000 = 0

(x - 100)(x - 20) = 0

x - 100 = 0 or x - 20 = 0

x = 100 or x = 20

we see that the solution x = 20 must be discarded because it will give a negative side length and a side length of 0. the only valid solution is x = 100.

perimeter = sum of the lengths of the sides

perimeter = x + x - 20 + x - 40

perimeter = 3x - 60

replace x with 100.

perimeter = 3(100) - 60

perimeter = 300 - 60

perimeter = 240
