Hi there, we know the total number of stocks bough is 20, the rate was 31 1/2=63/2, 20*63/2=10*63=630 dollars, the rate they were sold is 35 1/4=141/4 dollars, 5*141=705 dollars, the amount of profit is 20 stocks. So, 705-630=75 dollars. So, the answer is C. You made a profit of $75.00
Answer:
-4 and 9
Step-by-step explanation:
-4 + 9 = 5
-4 x 9 = -36
Answer:
<h2><u>
y = -2x</u></h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
If you notice very carefully then you will see that the line passes through the points :
( 1 , - 2 )
( - 1 , 2 )
Hence the value of x = 1 when the value of y = - 2 .
We know that - 2 × 1 = - 2
⇒ - 2 x = y
⇒ y = - 2x
Hence the first OPTION is correct .
Verification :
For points ( - 1 , 2 ) we can write :
y = - 2x
⇒ 2 = - 2 × - 1
⇒ 2 = 2
Hence the answer is verified .
Always try to use the converse of the graphical method .
( Nothing converse is there ... just saying the opposite steps of that method :P )
I mean in graphical method we plot points and then join , here identify the joined points and then make the equation .
add the two equations together
5a+5b=25
-5a+5b=35
------------------
0 + 10b =60
divide by 10
b=6
5a + 5b = 25
5a +5(6) = 25
5a +30 =25
subtract 30 from each side
5a =-5
divide by 5
a = -1
Answer (-1,6)
or a=-1 b=6
