Page 188 Problem 1 Answer
The given data is, P=18000
T=8yrs
R=4.3%
How much will she pay in interest
The interest is calculated as,
I=PTR/100
=18000×8×4⋅3/100
=$6192
Therefore, the solution is calculated as, $6192.
Page 189 Problem 2 Answer
Considering the previous example’s values.
Calculate the impact an increase in the monthly payment of $50 has on the length of the loan.
The loan length is calculated as,
⇒ \(=\frac{\ln \left(\frac{M}{P}\right)-\ln \left(\left(\frac{M}{p}-\frac{r}{12}\right)\right)}{12 \ln \left(1+\frac{\gamma}{12}\right)}\)
Additional amount = $50
Initial = $300
⇒ \(t=\frac{\ln \left(\frac{350}{25000}\right)-\ln \left(\frac{350}{25000}-\frac{5.9}{100^* 12}\right)}{12 \ln \left(1+\frac{5.9}{12 * 100}\right)}\)
⇒ \(=\frac{-4.2687-(-4.7013)}{0.05885}\)
= 7.35
= 7 years
Therefore, the solution is calculated as, 7 years.
Page 190 Problem 3 Answer
Considering the previous example’s values.
Compare the computed loan balances when x=2
The linear equation is, y=−6777,539x+13726080,
The quadratic equation is, y=−1007797000+1006140x−251,0951x2,
The cubic equation is, y=50082020000,00001−74983100x+37423,4x2−6,22616x3
Therefore, the solution is calculated for the equations and proved using the graphs.
Page 191 Problem 4 Answer
Find how might the quote apply to what you have learned
The quote implies that the loan and debts are considered as, which worries because this makes sure that the payment of the loan occurs every month on time and thus needs to make sure that enough money is set aside each month to pay for the loan.
But if the loans are failed to pay off, it is possible to lose everything.
Therefore, the payments of the loans have to be paid on time every month, to avoid worries.
Page 191 Problem 5 Answer
The given data is,P=32000
r=6.1 %
t=10 yrs
Calculate the total interest.
Hence the monthly payment formula is,
⇒ \(M=\frac{p\left(\frac{r}{12}\right)\left(1+\frac{r}{12}\right)^{12 t}}{\left(1+\frac{r}{12}\right)^{12 t}-1}\)
⇒ \(M=\frac{32,000\left(\frac{0.061}{12}\right)\left(1+\frac{0.061}{12}\right)^{12 \times 10}}{\left(1+\frac{0.061}{12}\right)^{12 \times 10}-1}\)
⇒ \(\Rightarrow M=\$ 356.87\)
The total paid is the product of the monthly payment as,
$356.87×12×10=$42,824.40
$42,824.40−$32,000=$10,824.40
Therefore, the solution is calculated as, $10824.4.
Page 191 Problem 6 Answer
The given data is, P=15000
t=4 yrs
r=5.5 %
Calculate how much will the person pay in interest over the life of the loan.
Hence the monthly payment formula is,
⇒ \(M=\frac{p\left(\frac{r}{12}\right)\left(1+\frac{r}{12}\right)^{12 t}}{\left(1+\frac{r}{12}\right)^{12 t}-1}\)
⇒ \(M=\frac{15,000\left(\frac{0.055}{12}\right)\left(1+\frac{0.055}{12}\right)^{12 \times 4}}{\left(1+\frac{0.055}{12}\right)^{12 \times 4}-1}\)
⇒ \(M=\$ 348.85\)
The total paid is the product of the monthly payment as,
$348.85×12×4=$16,744.80
$16,744.80−$15,000=$1,744.80
Therefore, the solution is calculated as, $1744.8.
Page 191 Problem 7 Answer
The given data is, P=7000
t=8 yrs
r=8.6 %
Calculate which loan will have the lower interest Over its lifetime.
Hence the monthly payment formula is,
⇒ \(M=\frac{p\left(\frac{r}{12}\right)\left(1+\frac{r}{12}\right)^{12 t}}{\left(1+\frac{r}{12}\right)^{12 t}-1}\)
⇒ \(M=\frac{7,000\left(\frac{0.086}{12}\right)\left(1+\frac{0.086}{12}\right)^{12 \times 8}}{\left(1+\frac{0.086}{12}\right)^{12 \times 8}-1}\)
⇒ \(M=\$ 101.10\)
The total paid is the product of the monthly payment and the number of payments,
$101.10×12×8=$9,705.60
$9,705.60−$7,000=$2,705.60
Hence the monthly payment formula is,
⇒ \(M=\frac{p\left(\frac{r}{12}\right)\left(1+\frac{r}{12}\right)^{12 t}}{\left(1+\frac{r}{12}\right)^{12 t}-1}\)
⇒ \(M=\frac{7,000\left(\frac{0.10}{12}\right)\left(1+\frac{0.10}{12}\right)^{12 \times 5}}{\left(1+\frac{0.10}{12}\right)^{12 \times 5}-1}\)
⇒ \(M=\$ 148.73\)
The total paid is the product of the monthly payment and the number of payments,
$148.73×12×5=$8,923.80
$8,923.80−$7,000=$1,923.80
Therefore, the solution is considered as first national bank.
Page 191 Problem 8 Answer
The given data is, P=$25000
r=7.7 %
t=2 to 10 yrs
Find the monthly payment formula for this loan situation.
Let t represent the number of years from 2 to 10 inclusive.
Hence the monthly payment formula is,
⇒ \(M=\frac{p\left(\frac{r}{12}\right)\left(1+\frac{r}{12}\right)^{12 t}}{\left(1+\frac{r}{12}\right)^{12 t}-1}\)
⇒ \(M=\frac{25,000\left(\frac{0.077}{12}\right)\left(1+\frac{0.077}{12}\right)^{12 \times t}}{\left(1+\frac{0.077}{12}\right)^{12 \times t}-1}\)
⇒ \(M=\frac{160.417 \times 1.00642^{12 \times t}}{1.00642^{12 \times t}-1}\)
Therefore, the solution is calculated as, M=160.417×1.0064212×t/1.0064212×t−1
Page 191 Problem 9 Answer
The given data is,P=$25000
r=7.7%
t=2 to 10 yrs
Find the total interest formula for this loan situation.
Let t represent the number of years from 2 to 10 inclusive.
⇒ \(M=\frac{160.417 \times 1.00642^{12 \times t}}{1.00642^{12 \times t}-1}\)
⇒ \(\frac{160.417 \times 1.00642^{12 \times t}}{1.00642^{12 \times t}-1} \times 12 \times t\)
⇒ \(\frac{160.417 \times 1.00642^{12 \times t}}{1.00642^{12 \times t}-1} \times 12 \times t-25,000\)
Therefore, the solution is 160.417×1.0064212×t/1.0064212×t−1×12×t−25,000
Page 191 Problem 10 Answer

r=7.7 %
t=2 to10 yrs
Use your graph to estimate the interest for a 6×1/2-year loan.
After plotting the graph, if t is an amount of 6 and a half, then the interest is about $6900.
Therefore, the graph was plotted and the solution was $6900.
Page 191 Problem 12 Answer
The given data is, P=$20000
r=7.1 %
t=1/10 yr
Find the length of the loan.
Substituting the values,ln500
20000−(ln(500/20000−0.071/12))/12ln(1+0.071/12)
t=3.8 years
Therefore, the solution is calculated as nearly 3.8 years.
Page 191 Problem 13 Answer
The given data is, M=$350
p=14,000
r=6.8
Calculate the number of years.
⇒ \(t=\frac{\ln \left(\frac{M}{p}\right)-\ln \left(\frac{M}{p}-\frac{r}{12}\right)}{12 \ln \left(1+\frac{r}{12}\right)}\)
⇒ \(=\frac{\ln \left(\frac{350}{14000}\right)-\ln \left(\frac{350}{14000}-\frac{0.068}{12}\right)}{12 \ln \left(1+\frac{0.068}{12}\right)}\)
⇒ \(≈3.8 years\)
Therefore, decreasing the monthly payments by $50, increased the length of the loan by 0.5 years.
Page 191 Problem 14 Answer
The given data is,P=$22000
t=15 years
r=4.85 %
Calculate how much will he pay the bank in interest over the life of the loan.
The monthly payment formula is,
⇒ \(M=\frac{p\left(\frac{r}{12}\right)\left(1+\frac{r}{12}\right)^{12 t}}{\left(1+\frac{r}{12}\right)^{12 t}-1}\)
⇒ \(M=\frac{22,000\left(\frac{0.0485}{12}\right)\left(1+\frac{0.0485}{12}\right)^{12 \times 15}}{\left(1+\frac{0.0485}{12}\right)^{12 \times 15}-1}\)
M= $172.26
The total paid is the product of the monthly payment,
⇒ \(\$ 172.26 \times 12 \times 15=\$ 31,006.80\)
⇒ \(\$ 31,006.80-\$ 22,000=\$ 9,006.80\)
≈$9000.
Therefore, the solution is calculated as, $9000.
