Solve the equation above

Mathematics
1 answer:
saveliy_v [14]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

X = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2 X (5X-8) = -9

multiply both sides of the equation by 2

2 X 1/2 X (5X - 8) = 2 X (-9)

1 X (5X - 8) = 2 X (-9)

Reduce the numbers with the greatest common divisor 2

5 x -8 = 2 x (-9)

5 x -8 = -18

Move constant to the right by adding its opposite to both sides

5X -8 + 8=-18 + 8

Then eliminate the opposites

5X = -18 + 8

Calculate the sum

5X = -10

Divide both sides of the equation by 5

5X DIVIDE 5 = -10 DIVIDE BY 5

X = -10 DIVIDE BY 5

X = -2

To the nearest dollar, what does the analyst believe
ruslelena [56]

The analyst believes the value of the stock at the end of three weeks will be $134.

<h3>What are stocks?</h3>
  • Stock (also known as capital stock) in finance refers to the shares of ownership in a corporation or company.
  • A single share of stock represents fractional ownership of the corporation based on the total number of shares.
  • This typically entitles the shareholder (stockholder) to that fraction of the company's earnings, proceeds from asset liquidation (after discharge of all senior claims such as secured and unsecured debt),  or voting power, which are often divided in proportion to the amount of money invested by each stockholder.

To find the value of the stock:

  • Because the stock price drops by 28% every week, it will be:
  • 100 - 28 = 72% every week.
  • So, r = 0.72.
  • Then, the equation V = 360(r)∧t will be V = 360(0.72)∧t .
  • After 3 weeks, V = 360(0.72)³ = 134.47 = 134

Therefore, the analyst believes the value of the stock at the end of three weeks will be $134.

Two positive integers have a product of 176. One integer is 5 less than the other integer. Which equation can be used to find th
faust18 [17]
xy=176
y=x-5

\implies x(x-5)=176\implies x^2-5x-176=(x+11)(x-16)=0
\implies x=-11, x=16

Since x>0, we take x=16, which means y=16-5=11.
