Answer:

B.64

Step-by-step explanation:

75% of a number is 120.

Let's take "x" be the number.

75% of x = 120

75/100 * x = 120

0.75x = 120

x = 120/0.75

x = 160

So the number is 160.

Now we have to find the 40% of the number 160.

= 40/100 * 160

= 0.4 *160

= 64

40% of the number is B.64

Thank you.

Nolan has a bond with a 6.1% yield, a bid price of $475, and a face value of $500. What is the original coupon rate of this Bond

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

5.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

Current yield = 6.1%

Face value of bond = $500

Market price of bond = $475

Let the original coupon rate be CR

$Current\hspace{2}yield = \frac{Coupon\hspace{2}rate* Bond\hspace{2}face\hspace{2}value}{Market\hspace{2}price}*100$

$6.1 = \frac{CR*500}{475}*100$

Multiply both sides by 475

$6.1 *475 = \frac{CR*500}{475}*100*475$

Cancel out the 475's from the top and bottom of the right side

$6.1 *475 = CR*500*100$

$2897.5 = CR*50000$

Flip the sides

$CR*50000 = 2897.5$

Divide both sides by 5000

$\frac{CR*50000}{50000} = \frac{2897.5}{50000}$

Cancel out 50000 from the top and bottom of the left side

$CR = 0.0579$ %

CR = 0.0579 * 100 [convert decimal into a percentage]

CR = 5.79 %

CR = 5.8% [rounded off to the tenth place]

Which set of lengths are not the side lengths of a right triangle? (A-28, 45, 53) (B-13, 84, 85) (C-36, 77, 85) (D-16, 61, 65) [

nikklg [1K]

Side lengths 16, 61, and 65 are not part of a right triangle.

A right triangle's sides should follow this formula, C being the largest number:

$a^{2} + b ^{2} = c^{2}$

$16^{2} = 256$

$61^{2} = 3721$

$65^{2} = 4225$

256 + 3721 = 3977

$3977 \neq 4225$

In the diagram below of triangle OPQ, R is the midpoint of OQ and S is

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

Measurement of OP = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

R is mid point of OQ

S is mid point of PQ

RS = 18 – 4x

OP = -9 + 7x

Find:

Measurement of OP

Computation:

R is mid point of OQ and S is mid point of PQ;

By using mid point theorem

[1/2][OP] = RS

So,

[1/2][-9 + 7x] = [18 - 4x]

[-9 + 7x] = 2[18 - 4x]

-9 + 7x = 36 - 8x

7x + 8x = 36 + 9

15x = 45

x = 45 / 15

x = 3

So,

OP = -9 + 7x

OP = -9 + 7(3)

Measurement of OP = 12
