Dennis Rodman has a $5,000 debt balance on his Visa card that charges 10. 7 percent compounded monthly. Dennis's current minimum monthly payment is 5 perent of his debt balance, which is $250. How many months (round up) will it take Dennis to pay off his credit card if he pays the current minimum payment of $250 at the end of each month?
How many months will it take Dennis to pay off his credit card?

22.13 months

Explanation:

The number of months that it will take Dennis to pay off his credit card will be calculated thus:

Balance amount = $5000

Monthly payment = $250

Interest rate = 10.7%/12 = 0.89%

The number of months will be:

= NPER(0.89, -250, 5000, 0).

= 22.13 months

answer; encouraging the development of innovations by firms attempting to break a monopoly; (creative destruction)

start by isolating the variable on one side by adding 43w^2 to both sides.   the equation will read:

25w^2+5=0

*subtract 5 from both sides*

25w^2=-5

*divide both sides by 25*

w^2=-1/5

*take the square root of both sides*

w=√(-1/5)

the square root of -1 is i.   the square root of 5 remains √5

the answer is i/√5.

hope this
