"5 fifths" is equivalent to ' 1 ' . So 5 fifths of anything
is equal to whatever comes after the 5 fifths.
This is a 35% decrease.
To find the percent decrease, find the amount of decrease: 6.50 - 4.25 = 2.25. Now divide this by the original price of the stock:
2.25/6.50 = 0.3462 ≈ 0.35
Answer:
Parametric Equation of a Line
Step-by-step explanation:
A line, parallel to vector (a,b,c) passing through point P (x1,y1,z1) is represented by parametric equations
x = x1+ at
y = y1 + bt
z = z1 + ct
50% = 1/2
3^2 > 2^3
-
0.5 > 0.5
Using quadratic formula
x = [-18 +-sq root (324 -4 *3*15)] / 2*3
x = [-18 +-sq root (144)]/6
x1 = (-18 + 12) / 6 = -1
x2 = (-18 -12) / 6 = -30/6 = -5
