Jessica took out a Stafford loan worth $7,175 at the beginning of her six-year college career. The loan has a duration of ten years and an interest rate of 6.3%, compounded monthly. How much greater will Jessica's monthly payment be if the loan is unsubsidized than if the loan is subsidized? Round all dollar values to the nearest cent. a. $36.98 b. $23.07 C. $37.67 d. $166.37

the correct answer is b. negative exponential growth.

step-by-step explanation:

you can tell it's an exponential function because it decreases rapidly then levels out and never touches the x-axis.

it is negative because the y-axis decreases as the x-axis increases.

therefore it is a negative exponential growth graph.

step-by-step explanation:

similar triangles are triangles which have the same shape but not the same size. this means their angle measures are equal but their side lengths are not instead they are proportional. to solve, we will set up a proportion and solve.

a proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. we form the ratios by finding corresponding sides (sides which match to each other on both triangles by their position). out ratios will be one side of the small triangle over the corresponding side on the big triangle as shown below:

.

to solve the proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.
