Calculate the value of n (Total 8 marks) 2. Two students Ann and Ben play a game. Each time Ann passes GO she receives $15. Each time Ben passes GO he receives 8% of the amount he already has. Both students start with $100. How much money will Ann have after she has passed GO 10 times? How much money will Ben have after he passes GO 10 times? How many times will the students have to pass GO for Ben to have more money than Ann? 2

Calculate the common ratio of the geometric sequence
8 9. Give all answers in this question correct to the nearest dollar Clara wants to buy some land. She can choose between two different payment options. Both options require her to pay for the land in 20 monthly installments. Option 1: The first installment is $2500. Each installment is $200 more than the one before. Option 2: The first installment is $2000. Each installment is 8% more than the one before. If Clara chooses option 1, (i) (ii) write down the values of the second and third installments; calculate the value of the final installment; (iii) show that the total amount that Clara would pay for the land is $ (7) If Clara chooses option 2, (i) find the value of the second installment; (ii) show that the value of the fifth installment is $2721. The price of the land is $ In option 1 her total repayments are $ over the 20 months. Find the annual rate of simple interest which gives this total. (4) (4) (d) Clara knows that the total amount she would pay for the land is not the same for both options. She wants to spend the least amount of money. Find how much she will save by choosing the cheaper option. (4) (Total 19 marks) 8
