Answer:

<u>The amount of investment in bonds is US$ 4,500 and the amount of investment in stocks is US$ 19,500</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Total investment in stocks and bonds = US$ 24,000

Amount of investment in bonds = x

Amount of investment in stocks = 3x + 6,000 (amount in stocks is $6,000 more than three times the amount in bonds)

For finding the value of x (amount of investment in bonds), we use this equation:

x + 3x + 6,000 = 24,000

x + 3x = 24,000 - 6,000

4x = 18,000

x = 4,500 (dividing by 4)

<u>The amount of investment in bonds is US$ 4,500</u>

Now let's find the amount of investment in stocks:

3x + 6,000 = 3 (4,500) + 6,000 = 13,500 + 6,000 = 19,500

<u>The amount of investment in stocks is US$ 19,500</u>

Answer:

Investment in stocks= $19.500

Investment in bonds= $4.500

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Because of the first sentence you know that the amount of money invested in both stocks and bonds is $24.000, then if "s" is the amount of money spend in stocks and "b" the amount of money spend in bonds, b+s=24000
  2. Then, you are told that the amount of money invested in stocks is $6.000 more than three times the amount in bonds, which means that s= 6.000+3\times{b}
  3. We have two equations and two unknown variables (s and b): from the first equation we can say that s=24.000-b, while from the second equation we have that s=6.000+3\times{b}.
  4. Using these two equation we can say that 24.000-b=6.000+3\times{b}, from which we obtain b=4.500.
  5. Then, using this last result, and replacing it into the first equation we get that s=19.500

Answer:

2a)  -2

b) 8

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equation of a parabola in vertex form</u>

f(x) = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) is the vertex and the axis of symmetry is x = h

2 a)

Using the equation of a parabola in vertex form, a parabola with vertex (2, -6):  

f(x) = a(x - 2)² - 6

If one of the x-axis intercepts is 6, then

                 f(6) = 0

⇒ a(6 - 2)² - 6 = 0

⇒         16a - 6 = 0

⇒              16a = 6

⇒                  a = 6/16 = 3/8

So f(x) = 3/8(x - 2)² - 6

To find the other intercept, set f(x) = 0 and solve for x:

                    f(x) = 0

⇒ 3/8(x - 2)² - 6 = 0

⇒      3/8(x - 2)² = 6

⇒           (x - 2)² = 16

⇒              x - 2 = ±4

⇒                   x = 6,  -2

Therefore, the other x-axis intercept is -2

b)

Using the equation of a parabola in vertex form, a parabola with vertex (2, -6):  

f(x) = a(x - 2)² - 6

If one of the x-axis intercepts is -4, then

                 f(-4) = 0

⇒ a(-4 - 2)² - 6 = 0

⇒         36a - 6 = 0

⇒              36a = 6

⇒                  a = 6/36 = 1/6

So f(x) = 1/6(x - 2)² - 6

To find the other intercept, set f(x) = 0 and solve for x:

                    f(x) = 0

⇒  1/6(x - 2)² - 6 = 0

⇒       1/6(x - 2)² = 6

⇒           (x - 2)² = 36

⇒              x - 2 = ±6

⇒                   x = 8,  -4

Therefore, the other x-axis intercept is 8

How to do long division with 540÷36
ehidna [41]


divide 36 into 540    36 will divide into the 54 1 time subtract 36 from 54, that gives you 18, bring down the zero from the number 540, now you have 180 to divide by 36, 36 will divide into 180  five times, so your answer is 15

The answer is 15
