Answer: 170 HES and 90 XOM

Hi! Let's say you bought A HES shares, and B XOM shares. As you invested $22,240, yo have that:

22,240 = A*80 + B*96     (80 and 96 are the initial prices)

3 months later those prices decreased to 64 and 80, and you sold your shares at those prices, then:

18,080 = 64*A + 80*B

This is a system of two linear equations and two unkowns A, B. You can solve it getting A from first equation:

A = (22,240-B*96)/80

And then replacing A into the second equation you can find the value of B. Then replacing B in the third equation you get A.

The area of the patio is 216 square feet. Write an equation that represents the area of the patio
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

216=2w \times w

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that the patio is a rectangle, we have

A= l\times w

Where l is the length and w is the width.

Now let's assume that the length of the patio is double than the width.

l=2w

So, the equation that represents this problem is

216=2w \times w

Explain how solving 4x &lt; -16 is different from solving -4x&lt; 16.
nalin [4]

Answer:

Dividing by 4 and -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving 4x < -16 is different from solving -4x< 16, because for 4x < -16, you are dividing by a positive 4 on both sides, but for -4x< 16, you are dividing by -4 on both sides.
