Troy has a basis of $39 per share

total value of shares is $3900

Step-by-step explanation:

On July 1, the date of the gift, the stock was selling for $39 per share.

Troy's basis in the stock  = current value of shares

No need to consider the base rate which is in 15 years ago

The current rate of 100 shares =  $39 × 100 =  $3900

Troy has a basis of $39 per share

total value of shares is $3900

Write an equation for the line that passes through (4,-6) and (-7,-6). Is the line parallel or perpendicular to the y-axis?
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

y = -6, perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the points to find the slope of the line:

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}} =\frac{-6-(-6)}{-7-4} =\frac{-6+6}{-7-4}=\frac{0}{-11}=0

Then, using point-slope form, choose one set of coordinates to use for y1 and x1:

y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})

y-(-6)=0(x-4)

y+6=0

y=-6

Since the slope of the line is zero, it's a horizontal line. The y-axis is a vertical line, which means that the line is perpendicular to the y-axis.

What is an angle between a side of a polygon and the extension of its adjacent side
jek_recluse [69]
I would say that the angle would be an exterior angle because it's usually between the side of the polygon connected by a line as an extension of the adjacent side. 

here's an example. hope it helps!

If 5a=-4b+5 and 3a=-2b+3, what is 6b?
Misha Larkins [42]
There are two equations and two variables. You can solve for each variable using either the elimination method or the substitution method. Here, I believe the elimination method would be best:
5a = -4b + 5
3a = -2b + 3
You can multiply the second equation by two, so the 4b and -4b in both equations will cancel each other out when you add them. So:
5a = -4b +5
6a = 4b +6
Add both equations together.
11a = 11
a = 1
Plug in the a value into any of the previous equations:
5(1) = -4b + 5
-4b = 0
b = 0
So, since we know that b = 0, 6b is also 0.
