A person has ​$27000 nvested in stock A and stock B. Stock A currently sells for ​$30 a share and stock B sells for ​$80 a share

. If stock B triples in value and stock A goes up​ 50%, his stock will be worth ​$76 comma 500. How many shares of each stock does he​ own?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be initial number of shares of stock A and y be the initial number of shares of stock B.

Since the cost of one share of stock A is $30, the cost of x shares would be $ 30x. Similarly, the cost of y shares of stock B would be $ 80y.

The person bought these x and y shares in $ 27,000. So we can set up the equation as:

30x + 80y = 27000                               Equation 1

Value of stock B triples. So new value of each share of stock B would be $ 240 and the price of y shares will be $ 240y. Value of stock A goes up by 50%. This means the price of each share of stock A would be 30 + 0.5(30) = $ 45 and the price of x shares would be $ 45x.

The worth of stock increased to $ 76,500. So we can set up the equation as:

45x + 240y = 76500                             Equation 2

Multiplying Equation 1 by 1.5 and subtracting from Equation 2, we get:

45x + 240y - 1.5(30x + 80y) = 76500 - 1.5(27000)

45x + 240y - 45x - 120y = 36000

120y = 36000

y = 300

Using the value of y in Equation 1, we get:

30x + 80(300) = 27000

30x = 27000 - 80(300)

30x = 3000

x = 100

This means the person bough 100 shares of stock A and 300 shares of stock B.

Use the identity tan(theta) = sin(theta) / cos(theta) to show that tan(???? + ????) = tan(????)+tan(????) / 1−tan(????) tan(????
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

See the proof below.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we need to proof the following indentity:

tan(x+y) = \frac{tan (x) + tan(y)}{1- tan(x) tan(y)}

So we need to begin with the definition of tangent, we know that tan (x) =\frac{sin(x)}{cos(x)} and we can do this:

tan (x+y) = \frac{sin (x+y)}{cos(x+y)}   (1)

We also have the following identities:

sin (a+b) = sin (a) cos(b) + sin (b) cos(a)

cos(a+b)= cos(a) cos(b) - sin(a) sin(b)

Now we can apply those identities into equation (1) like this:

tan (x+y) =\frac{sin (x) cos(y) + sin (y) cos(x)}{cos(x) cos(y) - sin(x) sin(y)}   (2)

We can divide numerator and denominator from expression (2) by \frac{1}{cos(x) cos(y)} we got this:

tan (x+y) = \frac{\frac{sin (x) cos(y)}{cos (x) cos(y)} + \frac{sin(y) cos(x)}{cos(x) cos(y)}}{\frac{cos(x) cos(y)}{cos(x) cos(y)} -\frac{sin(x)sin(y)}{cos(x) cos(y)}}

And simplifying we got:

tan (x+y) = \frac{tan(x) + tan(y)}{1-tan(x) tan(y)}

And that complete the proof.

A 2012 Gallup poll surveyed Americans about their employment status and whether or not they have diabetes. The survey results in
posledela

A) See picture for the table.

To make the table, multiply 47774 by 1.5% to get total that have diabetes and multiply 5855 by 2.5% to get total unemployed that have it, then using subtraction fill in the other squares of the table.

B)

Hypothesis:

H0: No association between employment and diabetes.

H1: Association between the two

Using a graphing calculator or Excel, run a chi-test.

Chi squared equals 31.844 with 1 degrees of freedom.

 The two-tailed P value is less than 0.0001

With this information we can reject the null hypothesis and conclude there is an association between diabetes and employment.

C)

Although there is a statistical significance, there really is no practical significance between an incidence rate of 1.5 or 2.5%
