To find this, you have to make the percentage a decimal (.72) and then multiply it by 36. 36 x .72=25.92. So 36 is 72% of 25.92. You could check this by doing 25.92/36, and we are correct because we get 72.

How many solutions 2x+3y=-3 and 3x + 5y = -9
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
Since the slopes of the two lines are the not equal, they will have only one solution. The solution will be a point and can be found using the method given below.

We can find the solutions by simultaneously solving the two equations.

From first equation, the value of y comes out to be:

2x+3y=-3 \\  \\ 
3y=-3-2x \\  \\ 
y= \frac{-3-2x}{3}

Using this value of y in second equation, we get:

3x+5( \frac{-3-2x}{3} )=-9 \\  \\ 
9x-15-10x=-27 \\  \\ 
-x=-27+15 \\  \\ 
-x=-12 \\  \\ 
x=12

Using this value of x, we can find y:

y= \frac{-3-2x}{3}= \frac{-3-24}{3} =-9

Therefore, there is only one solution to the given equations is which is (12, -9)

6) John purchased 120 shares of Walmart stock at $58.02 each. He sold the stock for $120.98.
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

John lost $6841.42.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find out how much John paid for the stock he bought.  Each share cost $58.02. He bought 120 shares.  Multiply the price by the number of shares.

58.02 x 120 = 6962.40

He sold the stock for $120.98 -- a huge loss!  (We are not told that the $120.98 is the selling price of one share, so I'm assuming that's what John sold all his shares for.)

Find the difference to see what his loss was.

$6962.40 - $120.98 = $6841.42 LOST!
