22.7%
Given that last year stock for company A was $7200
The stock for company B last year was worth $3510
Stock in company A decreased by 24%
This means the new value of stock for company A became;
(100-24)/100 *$7200
76/100*$7200
0.76*7200 =$5472
Stock in company B decreased by 20%
This means the new value of stock for company B became;
(100-20)/100 *$3510
80/100*$3510
0.8*$3510
$2808
Original investors stock value was = $7200+$3510 =$10710
New investors stock value is = $5472+$2808=$8280
Decrease in value of stock = $10710-$8280 =$2430
percentage decrease in stock value = decrease in stock/original value of stock *100%
=2430/10710 *100 =22.689
=22.7%

Answer:
(A)The northern lighthouse is 8.2 miles closer than the southern lighthouse.
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangle attached represents the given problem.
First, let us determine the distance of the Boat from each of the lighthouse.
In Triangle ABC,
∠A+∠B+∠C=180 degrees
21+∠B+16=180
∠B=180-37=143 degrees.
Using Law of Sines

Similarly

Difference in Distance =35.73-27.48=8.25 miles
Therefore, the northern lighthouse is 8.2 miles closer than the southern lighthouse.
