Vince borrows $900 to buy a couch. He will pay off the loan by paying 1.5% simple interest for 2 years. Vince incorrectly calculates the amount he will pay back using the expression below.

1. $927

2. The ERROR in his expression is that he used 1.015 instead of using 0.015 (1.5%).

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Calculation for What is the correct amount Vince will pay back altogether

Using this formula

A = P + PRT

Where,

A represent Amount=?

P represent Principal =$900

R represent Rate of interest= 1.5%

T represent Time=2 years

Let plug in the formula

A = $900 + $900(0.015*2)

A = $900 + $900(0.03)

A = $900 + $27

A = $927

2. Explanation of the error in in Vince’s expression.

Based on the information given the expression he used which is 900 + 900(1.015 • 2) was correct but the ERROR in his EXPRESSION is that he incorrectly used 1.015 instead of using 0.015 (1.5%).

Therefore the correct amount Vince will pay back altogether will be $927 while the ERROR in his expression used 1.015 instead of using 0.015 (1.5%).

answer: the answer is 40.82

step-by-step explanation: 3.14 x 13(or half of 26) to the power of 2

a.) list the factors of 40.

1/2/4/5/8/10/20/40

b.) list the factors of 40 that represent the number of cans that could be on each shelf.

5

c.) how many different arrangements of cans are possible?

just one because if you put more on one shelf you will go way over 40 and the cabinet will probably break.

d.) what are the possible arrangements of the cans?

put 5 cans on each self to reach 40 cans in total.

e.) which arrangement uses all the shelves?

5 because you can put 5 cans on each shelf, and since there are 8 shelfs you are equally going to get 40 cans.
