Answer:

$800

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the question, annual interest rate ($96) is equal to

bond price*0.06 + stock price*0.09

<em>where</em> bond price = 1200 - stock price

hence,

<u>(1200 - stock price)*0.06 + stock price*0.09 = 96</u>

1200*0.06 - stock price*0.06 + stock price*0.09 = 96

72 - stock price*0.06 + stock price*0.09 = 96

stock price*0.09 - stock price*0.06 = 96 - 72

stock price(0.09 - 0.06) = 24

stock price = 24/0.03

stock price = 800

Solve for x
X=400 at 6%

1200-400=800 at 9%

A 96 inch stick breaks into two pieces in the ratio of 3:5. How big is each piece?
Svetlanka [38]
40 cm.

let the length of the first part be 3x, second part be 4x, third part be 5x.

where x is a positive length in cm.

why 3x,4x and 5x ?

so that the ratio of lengths of the 3 parts be 3:4:5.

total length of the stick = 3x + 4x + 5x = 12x=96cm

so x=96/12 = 8cm

therefore the largest part of the stick (5x)= 5*8 =40cm
