50times 13.75 bc that's what 13 3/4 is so that gives u 68750

Then u do 50times12 that gives u 600

Then u subtract 600 from 68750and it gives u 87.50

Cost per share:

13 3/4 = 13 + 3/4 = (13 * 4 + 3 ) / 4 = (52 + 3 ) / 4 = 55 / 4

Selling price:

12

Loss per share: 55 / 4 - 12 = ( 55 - 48 ) / 4 = 7 /4

7 / 4 = 4 / 4 + 3 / 4 = 1 + 3/4 = 1 3/4 = 1.75

Total loss = loss per share * number of shares

=> 50 * 1.75 = 87.5

Answer: 87.5

Point B has coordinates (1,2). The x-coordinate of point A is negative 8. The distance between point A and point B is 15 uni

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

The point A will be (-8,14) or (-8,-10).

Step-by-step explanation:

Point B has coordinates (1,2) and the x-coordinate of point A is - 8.

Let us assume that the coordinates of point A are (-8,k).

Now, given that the point A is 15 units apart from point B.

Therefore, from the distance formula, we can write that

$\sqrt{(1 - ( -8))^{2} + (2 - k)^{2}} = 15$

Now,squaring both sides, we get

$(1 - ( -8))^{2} + (2 - k)^{2} = 225$

⇒ $(2 - k)^{2} = 225 - 9^{2} = 144$

⇒ 2 - k = ± 12

⇒ k = 14 or -10.

Therefore, the point A will be (-8,14) or (-8,-10). (Answer)

We know that the distance between two points on the coordinate plane ( $x_{1}, y_{1}$ ) and ( $x_{2}, y_{2}$ ) is given by

$\sqrt{(x_{1} - x_{2})^{2} + (y_{1} - y_{2})^{2}}$ .

Answer:

1 hour and 15 minutes

Step-by-step explanation

There are 60 minutes in an hour. Add 15 minutes to get to 3:00 pm. From 3:00 pm to 4:00 pm is 1 hour. 15 minutes + 1 hour is 1 hour and 15 minutes

Hope this helps!
