Answer:

There are 171 members in the club

Number of boys = 38

Number of girls = 133

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = total members of the club

Boys = 2/9x

if there are 95 more girls than boys

Girls = 2/9x + 95

how many girls are there in club?

Total members in the club = boys + girls

x = 2/9x + 2/9x + 95

x = 2+2/9x + 95

x = 4/9x + 95

x - 4/9x = 95

9x-4x/9 = 95

5/9x = 95

Divide both sides by 5/9

x = 95 ÷ 5/9

= 95 × 9/5

= 855/5

= 171

boys = 2/9x

= 2/9 * 171

= 342 / 9

= 38

Girls = 2/9x + 95

= 38 + 95

= 133

Total = 38 + 133

= 171

There are 171 members in the club

Number of boys = 38

Number of girls = 133

Leona purchased a $1,000 bond having a quoted price of 99.875. She had to pay a 5.5% brokerage fee (of the selling price). What
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

None of these choices are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a bond is quoted at 99.875, it means that it is sold at 99.875%  of the face value;

Face value = 1000

Therefore, Price = 0.99875 * 1000

Price = $998.75

If Leona pays  5.5% of the selling price, it means that she is paying additional cost which will make the total cost more than the quoted price;

5.5% of 998.75 is;

0.055*998.75 = $54.93

The total cost = $998.75 +$54.93

= $1053.68

Therefore, none of the given choices is correct.
