Answer:
the second one
Step-by-step explanation:
So the problem has no symbols, but we're going to multiply because the fraction on the left is right next to the parentheses.
-5/2 * 1/10x = -5x/20
I put "x" next to the 5 because the "x" counts as part of the numerator. Now that it's 5x over 20 that equals one, I'd first reduce -5x/20 into -x/4, then do
-x/4 * -4 = 1 * -4
To make the "x" side equal one, we have to multiply both sides by -4, to make both sides equal.
x = -4.
Answer:
None of these choices are correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
If a bond is quoted at 99.875, it means that it is sold at 99.875% of the face value;
Face value = 1000
Therefore, Price = 0.99875 * 1000
Price = $998.75
If Leona pays 5.5% of the selling price, it means that she is paying additional cost which will make the total cost more than the quoted price;
5.5% of 998.75 is;
0.055*998.75 = $54.93
The total cost = $998.75 +$54.93
= $1053.68
Therefore, none of the given choices is correct.
