Acompany borrows $74,000 for 2 years at a simple interest rate of 13.5%. find the interest paid on the loan and the total amount paid.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of interest is computed using the formula ...

  I = Prt

where P is the principal borrowed ($74,000), r is the annual interest rate (0.135), and t is the number of years (2). Filling in the numbers and doing the arithmetic, we have ...

  I = $74,000×0.135×2 = $19,980 . . . interest on the loan

__

The amount repaid is the sum of the original amount borrowed and the interest:

  $74,000 +19,980 = $93,980 . . . . total amount repaid

30005

yes ok                                            

the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

the root or roots of a polynomial are the values of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to 0. we can find the roots of a polynomial making the expression equal to 0 and then, isolating the variable (it it has just one variable).

for example, given the following polynomial:

the root or zero of the polynomial, can be found by making the expression equal to 0, and then, isolating the variable, so, finding the root we have:

therefore, we have that the root of the polynomial is equal to 2.

we must remember that the number of roots that a polynomial can have, will depend on the degree of the polynomial, a first degree polynomial have will have one single root, a second degree polynomial (quadratic expression) may have two roots and so.

hence the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

have a nice day!
