Answers

Answer 1

Investor purchased 50 shares of stock in a company for $40.

So, the total initial amount he invested is

[tex]50\cdot40=2000[/tex]

Then the rate of return is:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{rate of return=}\frac{shares\text{ sold price-initial amount invested}}{\text{ initial amount invested}}\cdot100 \\ =\frac{2200-2000}{2000}\cdot100 \\ =\frac{200}{2000}\cdot100 \\ =10 \end{gathered}[/tex]

So, the requied rate of return is 10.0%.

Step-by-step explanation:

10 x 7 = 70

7 x 4 = 28

Since it's $4 to make 10 copies, it'll be $2 to make 5

28 + 2 = 30

Please mark Brainliest!!

Answer:

$30 dollars for 75 copies

Step-by-step explanation:

What we know:

$4 for every 10 copies.

How to figure out:

Divide 4/10 = .4    .4 is the cost per copy.

We do this because if it is 4 dollars per 10 copies, then we have to figure out the cost per copy. So we have to do how many dollars goes into each copy.

Now we know the cost of one copy we can multiply the amount of copies we need by the price of one.

75 x 0.4 = 30     30 is the price of 75 copies.

a 17 foot ladder is leaning against a wall. if the top slips down the wall at a rate of 2 ft/s, how fast will the foot be moving away from the wall when the top is 13 feet above the ground?

Answers

The foot will be moving at a rate of 2.373 ft/s away from the wall when the top is 13 feet above the ground.

From the question, we have the following;

Hypotenuse=17 foot

Height(y)=13 feet

Base(x)=(17^2-13^2)^1/2

        =120^1/2 or sqrt(120)

The ladder against the wall is a right angle triangle, so we have:

x^2+y^2=17^2

x^2+y^2=289

Top slips down at 2ft/s

dy/dt=-2 ft/s, where height (y)=13ft

The foot will be moving horizontally(x), along the x axis, to find how fast the foot will be moving, we find dx/dt

Now, we take the derivative with respect to time:

=x^2+y^2=17^2

=2x(dx/dt)+2y(dy/dt)=0

Substitute the known values, y=13, x=sqrt(120), z=17, dy/dt=-2 ft/s

2(sqrt(120))(dx/dt)+2(13)(-2)=0

2(sqrt(120))(dx/dt)-52=0

We solve for dx/dt:

dx/dt=52/(2sqrt(120))

dx/dt=52/21.9089

dx/dt=2.373 ft/s

What is a Linear equation?

In Mathematics, the equation which has highest degree 1 is known as a Linear equation. Linear equations are used to calculate unknown values. Here to represent unknown values we will use variables like x, y, z  or a, b, c .. etc.  

According to the number of variables in given equations, the given equations will be called a Linear equation in one variable or Linear equation in two variables and so on. To solve linear equations we will use Elimination method

Here, we have three linear equations with 3 and 2 variables

4x - 2y + 3z = 9 ----(1)

x - 2y = -3 -----(2)

2x + 3y = 1​ -----(3)

Here, to find x, y and z we will use Elimination method

First of all solve (2) and (3) as given below

2 × (2) ⇒  2x - 4y = - 6 -----(4)

1 × (3) ⇒  2x + 3y = 1​  

Now subtract (3) from (4)

(4) - (3) ⇒ 2x - 4y -2x - 3y  = - 6 - 1

⇒ - 7y = -7

⇒   y = 1

Substitute y = 1 in (2)

(2) ⇒ x - 2(1) = -3

x - 2 = -3

x = -1    

Now substitute x = -1 and y = 1 in (1)

(1) ⇒ 4(-1) - 2(1) + 3z = 9  

- 6 + 3z = 9

3z = 15

z = 5

From above calculations

The values of x = -1,  y = 1 and  z = 5

Suppose you work for a large coffee distributor that has a secret coffee blend it sells to local stores. You mix the House blend with the Organic Free Trade blend, but always in the same proportion. Yesterday, you mixed 140 pounds of the House blend with 168 pounds of the Organic Free Trade blend. Today, there is 130 pounds of the House coffee left in stock. How many pounds of the Organic Free Trade coffee should you mix with it to get your secret blend?

Answers

The ratio House blend/Organic Free Trade blend is the same and must remain the same.

So, the proportion is:

[tex]\frac{140}{168}=\frac{130}{x}[/tex]

Where x is the unknown amount of the Organic Free Trade blend.

So, from the proportion, we have:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 140\cdot x=168\cdot130 \\ 140x=21840 \\ \frac{140x}{140}=\frac{21840}{140} \\ x=156 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Answers

It is to be noted that by the proof given below, the attached shape ABCD is a kite.

What is a kite in Euclidean Geometry?

A kite is a quadrilateral having reflection symmetry across a diagonal in Euclidean geometry. A kite has two equivalent angles and two pairs of adjacent equal-length sides as a result of its symmetry.

The proof is as follows:

AB = AD [Given]

∠ADC = 115°   [Angles on a Straight line]

That is 180 - 65 = 115°

∠BCD = 20°    [Vertical Angles are equal]

∠ABC = (360 - (20+115+110))

= 115°              [Angles in a quadrilateral]

Hence,

ABCD = Kite    [Definition of  a Geometric Kit]

solve the following equation 7x + 14=28

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The Question was:
7x + 14 = 28

Subtract 14 from both sides.

7x = 28 − 14

Subtract 14 from 28 to get 14.

7x = 14

Divide both sides by 7.

x = 14/7

Divide 14 by 7 to get 2.

x = 2

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve a question like that, we have to isolate the variable.

What is the variable? A variable is a letter partaking in an equation that is in place of a number or solution that makes the equation true.

In this case, the variable is x.

To isolate the variable, we must do the opposite action that is being done to the number.

For example, if a number was added to one side by 28, we can subtract both sides by 28 so it negates the addition and does not alter the original equation.

7x+14=28                We can subtract the 14 on both sides to negate the                                -14  -14                     addition.

7x=14                      Divide each side by 7 to isolate x.

Let's learn more about the Pythagoras theorem, its proofs, and its equations before moving on to cases that have been solved using the triangle and square Pythagoras theorem. The hypotenuse's square is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides if a triangle has a straight angle (90 degrees), according to the Pythagoras theorem. Keep in mind that BC² = AB² + AC² in the triangle ABC signifies this.

You have 8 times as many dimes as nickels. You have 18 dimes and nickels altogether how much money do you have in all?

Answers

For the given condition of dimes is 8 times of nickel and there are 18 dimes and nickels altogether, then total money is equal to $1.

As given in the question,

Let x be the number of dimes

Then number of nickels are 8x.

As per given condition,

Total number of dimes and nickels = 18

⇒ x + 8x = 18

⇒ 9x = 18

⇒ x= 2

Number of dimes =2

Number of nickels = 8(2)

                             = 16

Conversion:

1 dime = 0.10$

1 nickel = 0.05$

Total amount of money in dollars

= 2 ×(0.10) + 16× (0.05)

= 0.20 + 0.80

= 1.00

Therefore, for the given condition of dimes is 8 times of nickel and there are 18 dimes and nickels altogether, then total money is equal to $1.
