Solve. 18. Miguel paid $9600 rent for his apartment the first year. Every year for
the next 3 years the rent increased 5%.
a. How much rent did he pay in the fourth year?
b. How much rent did he pay altogether in the 4 years?

$11,113.20

$41,377.20

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation that would be used to represent the increase in rent every month is :

FV = P (1 + r)^n

FV = Future value  

P = Present value  

R = interest rate  

N = number of years

Rent paid in the first year = 9600

Rent paid in the second year = 9600 x (1.05) = 10,080

Rent paid in the third year = 9600 x (1.05)^2 = 10,584

Rent paid in the fourth year = 9600 x (1.05)^3 = 11,113.20

Rent paid in4 years is the sum of the rents paid each year :

9600 + 10,080 + 10,584 + 11,113.20 = $41,377.2

answer: sorry

step-by-step explanation: can you tell me pls how to find the rational of two integers

stew reads at the fastest rate of 265 words per minute.

step-by-step explanation:

it's a given that felicia reads at 260 word per minute and on connie's graph we can see that she reads 200 words per minute. since stew's table tells us that he read 795 in 3 minutes, we can divide 795 by 3 to find out how many words he reads per minute.

795/3 = 265

stew reads 265 words per minute - he reads at the fastest rate since felecia reads at 260 words per minute and connie reads at 200 words per minute.

stew (265) > felecia (260) > connie (200)
