Several reporters approach the governor as he exits a meeting. They shout questions, asking about his plan to deal with prison o

vercrowding. He replies, 'I don't have time for this.' One reporter prints that the governor isn't concerned about prison overcrowding and won't make the time to correct the issue. Why is this an example of bias by spin?
Because if the governor didn't have time he should have said, 'No comment.'

Because the reporter interpreted an objective fact in a subjective manner

Because this question should only be asked if it is the topic of the meeting the governor left

An investor purchased 100 shares of stock X at \small 6\frac{1}{8} dollars per share and sold them all a year later at 24 dollar
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

option (C) 280%

Explanation:

Number of shares of stock X purchased = 100

Purchasing cost of share = \$6\frac{1}{8} =\frac{49}{8}

Selling cost of stocks = $24 per share

Brokerage paid = 2%

Now,

The total purchasing cost involved = 100\times\frac{49}{8} + 2% of 100\times\frac{49}{8}

= 612.5 + 0.02 × 612.5

= $624.75

also,

Total income from sales of stocks

= Total selling cost of shares - brokerage paid

= $24 × 100 - 2% of Total selling cost

= $2400 - ( 0.02 × $2400 )

= $2400 - $48

= $2,352

now,

The investor's percent gain on this investment = \frac{\textup{Income-invested amount}}{\textup{Invested amount}}\times100\%

= \frac{\textup{2,352 - 624.75}}{\textup{624.75}}\times100\%

= \frac{\textup{1727.25}}{\textup{624.75}}\times100\%

= 276.47% ≈ 280%

Hence, the correct answer is option (C) 280%

A bank loaned out 19,000 part of it at 6% interest per year and the rest at 14% per year. if the interest recieved in one year t
Ksju [112]
Let x be the part of 19,000 that was loaned out at 6% such that the remaining 19,000 - x was loaned out at 14%. The interest is calculated by the equation,

    I = P x i x n

where P is the principal amount, i is the interest, n is the number of years. Substituting the known values,

   2000 = (x)(0.06) + (19000 - x)(0.14)

The value of x from the equation above is 8250.

Hence, 8,250 was loaned out at 6%.
