$4,000 is invested in ABC's stock and $11,000 is invested in her market account

Step-by-step explanation:

Susan purchased company ABC's stock and invested the balance in her money market account

  • ABC's stock yielded 13% last year and her money market account yielded 5% last year
  • Susan's initial investments amount to $15000, and the annual income is $1070

We need to find how much money is invested in stock and how much is invested in her money market account

Assume that she invested $x in ABC's stock and $y in her money market account

∵ She invested $x in ABC's stock

∵ She invested $y in her market account

∵ Her initial investments amount is $15000

∴ x + y = 15000 ⇒ (1)

The interest formula is I = Prt, where P is the initial investment, r is the rate of interest in decimal and t is the time

In ABC's stock:

∵ She invested $x

∴ P = x

∵ The rate is 13%

∴ r = 13% = 13 ÷ 100 = 0.13

∵ t = 1

- Substitute all of these values in the formula of interest above

∴ I_{ABC} = x(0.13)(1)

∴ I_{ABC} = 0.13x

In her market account:

∵ She invested $y

∴ P = y

∵ The rate is 5%

∴ r = 5% = 5 ÷ 100 = 0.05

∵ t = 1

- Substitute all of these values in the formula of interest above

∴ I_{market} = y(0.05)(1)

∴ I_{market} = 0.05y

∵ Her annual income is $1070

- Add the interest of ABC's stock and the interest of her market

   account, equate the sum by 1070

∴ 0.13x + 0.05y = 1070 ⇒ (2)

Now we have a system of equations to solve it

Multiply equation (1) by -0.05 to eliminate y

∵ -0.05x - 0.05y = -750 ⇒ (3)

- Add equations (2) and (3)

∴ 0.08x = 320

- Divide both sides by 0.08

∴ x = 4000

- Substitute value of x in equation (1) to find y

∵ 4000 + y = 15000

- Subtract 4000 from both sides

∴ y = 11000

$4,000 is invested in ABC's stock and $11,000 is invested in her market account

In this diagram, each square represents 1 km. What is the displacement of the car?​
Brut [27]
<h3>Answer: C) 2 km west</h3>

Explanation:

With displacement, all we care about is the beginning and end. We don't care about the middle part(s) of the journey. So we'll take the straight line route from beginning to end when it comes to computing displacement.

We start at A(0,0) and end at B(-2,0). Going from A directly to B has us go 2 km west. Keep in mind that displacement is a vector, so you must include the direction along with the distance.

Liliana wants to determine the height of an enlarged photo that she plans to frame. The original photo was 11 inches wide by 14
inn [45]

Answer: 168 inches.

Explanation:

First thing you must always do when solving word problems is read closely, and take note of any number.

In this case, the first thing we must do is find the scale factor.

For this, we use one of the dimensions. We will use the width of the photo.

We have then:

k = 132/11

k = 12

Then, we look for the value of the height of the new photo. To do this, we multiply the scale factor by the original dimension.

We have then:

14k = 14 (12) = 168

Thus, 168 inches is your answer! :)

Hope this helps! :)
