Q:

A loan of $15 000 is taken out. If the interest rate on the loan is 7%, how much interest is due and what is the amount repaid if the loan is due in seven months

A) 15612.50 B) 14612.50
C) 13612.50 D) 17612.50
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 15612.50

Explanation:

We have P = 15 000, r = 0.07 and since the actual date the loan was taken out
is not given, we use t =7/12

I = Prt=$15 000* 0.07* 7/12 = $612.50

Amount repaid = Future or accumulated value,

S = P + I = $15 000 + $612.50 = $15 612.50

Q:

An intelligent boy is doing a jigsaw with 275 pieces. Each day that he fits pieces together there are fewer pieces left, and it is reasonable to assume that he fits more pieces each day because the number left to sort out diminishes progressively. Hence he is able to fit an extra piece as each day goes by. On the first day he fits 20 pieces. How many days does it take for him to complete the puzzle ?

A) 11 days B) 15 days
C) 13 days D) 16 days
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 11 days

Explanation:

Let 'n' number of days it take to complete.

 

we know that sum of n number= n/2[2a+(n-1)d]
where a=20,d=1;
n/2[2x20+(n-1)1]=275
n[n+39]=550
n2 + 39n - 550 = 0
 n2+ 50n - 11n - 550 = 0
(n-11) (n-50) = 0
n-11 = 0;
n = 11(Days).
