The shares of $2.25 are 200 and the shares of $2.75 are 700.

According to the question,

We have the following information:

An investor bought 700 shares of stock, some at $2.25 per share and some at $2.75 per share. And the total cost was $1825.00.

Now, let's take the shares of $2.25 to be x and the shares of $2.75 to be y.

So, we have the following expression:

x+y = 700

x = 700-y ....(1)

2.25x+2.75y = 1825 ...(2)

Putting the value of x from equation 1:

2.25(700-y)+2.75y = 1825

1575-2.25y+2.75y = 1825

1575+0.5y = 1825

0.5y = 250

y = 250/0.5

y = 500

Now, putting the value of y in equation 1:

x = 700-y

x = 700-500

x = 200

Hence, the shares of $2.25 are 200 and the shares of $2.75 are 700.

Which of the following is not an example of a recursive sequence?
wolverine [178]
A recursive pattern is a sequence of numbers that entails a pattern between succeeding numbers. in this case, we can see that sequence 2 has an arithmetic difference of 9, that is the proceeding terms are 40, 49, 58..  The third one has also an arithmetic difference that is increasing by 3 each. The answer then is A which has no pattern.

The seats at a local baseball stadium are arranged so that each row has five more seats than the row below it. If there are four
brilliants [131]

Answer:

Thus the last row has 119 seats.

The total number of seats in 24 rows = 1476

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of seats in each row make an arithmetic series. We will use arithmetic equation to find the number of seats in last row:

An = a1+ (n-1)d

An = 4+(24-1)5  

An = 4 + (23)(5)  

An = 4 + 115  

An = 119

Thus the last row has 119 seats.

Now to find the sum of seats we will apply the formula:

Sn = n(a1 + an)/2

Sn = 24(4+119)/2  

Sn = 24(123) /2  

Sn = 1476 .....

The total number of seats in 24 rows = 1476....
