Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

The numbers are 6 and 2x, then:

  • 1/6 + 1/(2x) = 7/24
  • 1/3 + 1/x = 7/12
  • (x+3)/(3x) = 7/12
  • 12(x+3) = 7*3x
  • 12x + 36 = 21x
  • 21x - 12x = 36
  • 9x = 36
  • x = 4

The other number is 2*4 = 8

KATRIN_1 [288]

An easy way to think of independent and dependent variables is, when you're conducting an experiment, the independent variable is what you change, and the dependent variable is what changes because of that. You can also think of the independent variable as the cause and the dependent variable as the effect.

I hope this helps!

Debby, Ella and Unique invest $10,000 each into an oil company. Debby owns 2000 $1 common stocks, Ella owns 1000 of 5% $50 prefe
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

Ella has the greatest return in the current year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Debby would receive $0.80 for each of her 2000 common stock in the oil company,hence Debby's return on investment in the current year is $1600($0.80*2000)

Besides,Ella's return on the stock investment in the current year is computed thus:

Ella's return= 5%*1000*$50=$2,500

In addition,Unique's dollar return on the investment is computed as follows:

Unique's return on  investment=4%*2000*$20=$1,600

From the above computations,Ella seems to have the highest return in the current year of $2,500 whereas the two others managed to have $1600 return each
