Answer:

x = 5.153846154

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

6x + 31 = 19x + -36

Reorder the terms:

31 + 6x = 19x + -36

Reorder the terms:

31 + 6x = -36 + 19x

Solving

31 + 6x = -36 + 19x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-19x' to each side of the equation.

31 + 6x + -19x = -36 + 19x + -19x

Combine like terms: 6x + -19x = -13x

31 + -13x = -36 + 19x + -19x

Combine like terms: 19x + -19x = 0

31 + -13x = -36 + 0

31 + -13x = -36

Add '-31' to each side of the equation.

31 + -31 + -13x = -36 + -31

Combine like terms: 31 + -31 = 0

0 + -13x = -36 + -31

-13x = -36 + -31

Combine like terms: -36 + -31 = -67

-13x = -67

Divide each side by '-13'.

x = 5.153846154

Simplifying

x = 5.153846154

Which is better: having a stock that goes up 30% on Wednesday than drops 20% on Thursday, or a stock

finlep [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

If the stock goes up 30%, it's multiplied by $1.3$ .

The reason is that $x + .3 \times x=1.3\times x$

If the stock goes down 20%, it's multiplied by $0.8$

The reason is that $x - .2 \times x = 0.8 \times x$

If the stock goes down 30%, it's multiplied by $0.7$

The reason is that $x - .3 \times x = 0.7 \times x$

If the stock goes up 40%, it's multiplied by $1.4$ .

The reason is that $x + .4 \times x=1.4\times x$

If you increase it by 30% and then drop it by 20%, it means you are multiplying it by $1.3$ and then multiplying it by $.8$ . In other words:

$1.3 \times 0.8=1.04$

So, the net gain is = .04

Assume the original value = 500

Increase it by 30% and it becomes 650

Decrease 650 by 20% and it becomes 520

So, the net gain = 20

Verification:

$500 \times .04=20$

And

If you drop it by 30% and then increase it by 40%, you are multiplying it by .7 and then multiplying it by 1.4. In other words:

$.7 \times 1.4=0.98$

So, the net loss is = 1 - 0.98 = .02

Assume the original value = 500

Decrease it by 30% and it becomes 350.

increase 350 by 40% and it becomes 490.

So, the net loss is = 10

Verification:

$500 \times .02=10$

Find the gradient of the line segment between the points (4,3) and (5,6).

vesna_86 [32]

<h2>SOLVING</h2>

$\Large\maltese\underline{\textsf{A. \space What is Asked}}$

Find the gradient of the line segment between the points $\bf{(4,3)\:and\:(5,6)}$

$\Large\maltese\underline{\textsf{B. This problem has been solved!}}$

The formula used, here is

$\bf{m=\dfrac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

$\cline{1-2}$

Now let's put in the co-ordinates from these two points.

$\bf{m=\dfrac{6-3}{5-4}}$ | subtract on top & bottom

$\bf{m=\dfrac{3}{1}}$ | divide

$\bf{m=3}$

$\cline{1-2}$

$\bf{Result:}$

$\bf{=m=3}$

$\boxed{\bf{ aesthetic\not101}}$
