Calculate the loss on selling 50 shares of stock originally bought at 133/4 and sold at 12. A. $687.50 B. $87.50 C. $600.00 D. $
2 answers:
Answer:
Option B. $87.50
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question selling price of 50 shares $12 per share and cost price is $12 per share.
Now we have to calculate the loss incurred in selling these shares.
Per share loss = (costing price - selling price)
loss = 13 - 12 =
- 12 = 13.75 - 12 = $1.75
Therefore total loss incurred in selling 50 shares = $1.75 × 50
= $87.50
Therefore Option B. $87.50 is the correct answer.

To find the vertex of the parabola, we need to write it in a vertex form.
y=x² - 8x +12
1) complete the square
y=x² - 8x +12
y = x² -2*4x + 4² - 4² +12
y=(x-4)² -16 +12
2) calculate and write a vertex
y=(x-4)² -16 +12
y=(x-4)² - 4
(x-4) ----- x- coordinate of the vertex x=4
y=(x-4)² - 4 -------y- coordinate of the vertex y = - 4
Vertex is (4, -4).
Answer is (4, -4). No correct answer is given in choices.
