The net percentage lost on the stock is 4%

<h3>How to determine the net percentage?</h3>

Let the value of the stock be represented with x.

When it goes down by 20% on Monday, the value is:

Value = (1 - 20%) * x

Value = 0.8x

When it goes up by 20% on Tuesday, the value is:

Value = (1 + 20%) * 0.8x

Value = 0.96x

Recall that the initial value is x.

So, the profit is:

Profit = 0.96x - x

Evaluate the difference

Profit = -0.04x

Express as percentage

Profit = -4%x

Negative value represent a percentage lost.

Hence, the net percentage lost is 4%

A function f(x) is graphed on the coordinate plane.
Sidana [21]

Answer: y = - 4x + 2


Explanation:


The graph shows a linear function, which is a first degree polynomial, whose form is ax + b.


The rule or fucntion is f(x) = y = ax + b. This form is called the slope-intercept form, because the coefficient a is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.


The graph permits you to calculate both parameters.


1) The slope, a is defined in this way:

  • a = rise / run = [change in y] / [change in x] = [y₂ -y₁] / [x₂ - x₁]
  • you can use the points (0, - 2) and (-1,2):

       ⇒ a = [ 2 - (-2) ] / [ -1 - 0 ] = 4 / (-1) = - 4

2) b, the y-intercept, is the value of the function, y, when x = 0. In the graph you can see that this is - 2. b =  - 2.


3) Substituting the values of a and b in the form y = ax + b, you the rule:

  • y = - 4x - 2

Tema [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Value of the edge of the square=d

d^2=(a^2+b^2+(-a)^2+(-b)^2=2(a^2+b^2)\\\\d=\sqrt{2(a^2+b^2)}\\\\Perimeter=4*d=4*\sqrt{2(a^2+b^2)}\\\\Area=d^2=2(a^2+b^2)\\
