An $600,000 Mortgage is amortized by monthly payments over 25 years. The interest rate charged is 4% compounded semi-annually. What is the size of the monthly payment to the nearest dollars?
How much interest paid in the first payment?
What is the outstanding balance after the first payment?

You drop a rubber ball off the roof of a 50 meter high building onto a paved parking lot. it bounces back up with every bounce, but not quite all the way back up to you. after the first bounce it bounces back only 80 percent of the distance it was dropped from. the pattern continues, meaning after every bounce it comes up to just 80 percent of the previous maximum height. so if before the first bounce the height is 50 meters, what height does the ball reach after the fifth bounce? round your answer to one decimal place and chose the correct response from the choices below:

The magnitude, m, of an earthquake is defined to be m=log l/s, where i is the intensity of the earthquake (measured by the amplitude of the seismograph wave) and s is the intensity of a “standard” earthquake, which is barely detectable. what is the magnitude of an earthquake that is 1,000 times more intense than a standard earthquake? use a calculator. round your answer to the nearest tenth.

If the endpoints of the diameter of a circle are (8, 6) and (2,0), what is the standard form equation of the circle? a) (x + 5)2 + (y + 3)2 = 18 (x + 5)2 + (y + 3)2 = 3.72 (x - 5)2 + (y - 3)2 = 18 d) (x - 5)2 + (y - 3)2 = 32
