Clark and Lana take a 30-year home mortgage of $128,000 at 7.8%, compounded monthly. They make their regular monthly payments for 5 years, then decide to pay $1300 per month. A) Find their regular monthly payment.
B) Find the unpaid balance when they begin paying the $1400.
C) How many payments of $1400 will it take to pay off the loan?
D) How much interest will they save by paying the loan using the number of payments from part (c)?

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

The present value of the house = 128000

interest rate compounded monthly r = 7.8% = 0.078

number of months in a year n= 12

duration of time t = 30 years

To find their regular monthly payment, we have:

128000 = 138.914 P

P = 128000/138.914

P = $921.433

∴ Their regular monthly payment P = $921.433

To find the unpaid balance when they begin paying the $1400.

when they begin the payment ,

t = 30 year - 5years

t= 25 years

PV = $121718.2714

C) In order to estimate how many payments of $1400  it will take to pay off the loan, we have:

nt = 94.238 payments is required to pay off the loan.

How much interest will they save by paying the loan using the number of payments from part (c)?

The total amount of interest payed on $921.433 = 921.433 × 30(12) years

= 331715.88

The total amount paid using 921.433 and 1300 = (921.433 × 60 )+( 1300 + 94.238)

= 177795.38

The amount of interest saved = 331715.88  - 177795.38

The amount of interest saved = $153920.5

207/8 is the right

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:

the domain is the set { -2, 0, 2, 3}

discussion:

the domain is the set of x values in the ordered pairs (x,y). taking the x, or first component, of each ordered pair gives   -2, 0, 2, 3.
