Answer: There is 680% increase for the fund.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of shares they purchased = 1000

Cost of per share at the time of their marriage = $10

So, Amount of fund will be

1000\times 10=\$10000

Cost per share after 30 years = $78

So, Amount of fund will be

78\times 1000=\$78000

Percentage of increase for the fund will be given as

\frac{78000-10000}{10000}\times 100=680\%

Hence, there is 680% increase for the fund.

A 4​-ft vertical post casts a 12​-in shadow at the same time a nearby cell phone tower casts a 118​-ft shadow. How tall is the c
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

height of vertical post = 6ft

its shadow = 20 in

For all shadows cast at the same time, the ratio of the height of a shadow-casting structure to the length of its shadow is the same. (Assuming, of course, that it's the sun casting the shadows.)

So the ratio is  

4 feet / 12 inches = 4 feet / 1 foot = 4/1 = 4,

and if h is the height of the cell tower,

h/122 feet = 4

h = 4 x 122 feet = 488 feet. <---------------- Final answer

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

C = 25 + 3n

Step-by-step explanation:

Andre has a summer job selling magazine subscriptions.

We are told that:

Andy earns $25 per week plus $3 for every subscription he sells.

Let us represent

C = Total amount of money he makes this week

n = the number of magazine subscriptions Andre sells this week.

Hence, Our Algebraic expression =

C = $25 + $3 × n

C = 25 + 3n

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  1. x ≤ 4
  2. x > 10
  3. x ≤ -7

Step-by-step explanation:

We're guessing you want to solve for x in each case. You do this in basically the same way you would solve an equation.

1. 3x +2 ≤ 14

  3x ≤ 12 . . . . . subtract 2

  x ≤ 4 . . . . . . . divide by 3

__

2. -5 +2x > 15

  2x > 20 . . . . . . add 5

  x > 10 . . . . . . . . divide by 2

__

3. -2x +4 ≥ 18

  4 ≥ 18 +2x . . . . . add 2x

  -14 ≥ 2x . . . . . . . subtract 18

  -7 ≥ x . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

<em>Additional comment</em>

The statement above that the same methods for solving apply to both equations and inequalities has an exception. The exception is that some operations reverse the order of numbers, so make the inequality symbol reverse. The usual operations we're concerned with are <em>multiplication and division by a negative number</em>: -2 < -1; 2 > 1, for example. There are other such operations, but they tend to be used more rarely for inequalities.

You will note that we avoided division by -2 in the solution of the third inequality by adding 2x to both sides, effectively giving the variable term a positive coefficient. You will notice that also changes its relation to the inequality symbol, just as if we had left the term where it was and reversed the symbol: -2x ≥ 14 ⇔ -14 ≥ 2x ⇔ x ≤ -7 ⇔ -7 ≥ x
