Answer:
Five years ago, Benjamin invested in Parchar Special Effects. He purchased four par value $1,000 bonds from Parchar Special Effects at a market rate of 96.230. Each bond had an interest rate of 7.2%. Benjamin also purchased 200 shares of stock in the same company, each of which cost $19.08 and had a yearly dividend of $2.04. Today, bonds from Parchar Special Effects have a market rate of 104.595, and stock in Parchar Special Effects costs $22.62. If Benjamin liquidates his portfolio and sells all of his investments, which aspect of his investment will have yielded him a greater total profit, and how much greater is it?
- Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
B. More than one quadrilateral exists with the given conditions, and all instances must be isosceles trapezoids.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a parallelogram, adjacent angles are supplementary. They are only congruent if the parallelogram is a rectangle. In this problem, adjacent angles are both congruent and acute. If this were a triangle, it would guarantee the triangle is isosceles.
The fact that opposite angles are supplementary guarantees that the fourth side of the figure is parallel to the base between the acute angles. That makes the figure an isosceles trapezoid. Unless specific angles and side lengths are specified, the description matches <em>any</em> isosceles trapezoid.
So it's actually 0.36363636... with the 36 repeating, right?
<span>Here's a technique for converting repeating decimals to fractions: </span>
<span>N = 0.3636363636... </span>
<span>100N = 36.36363636... </span>
<span>This means 100N - N = (36.363636...) - (0.36363636...). This simplifies to 99N = 36, because the "0.36363636..." parts of both numbers on the right cancel each other out. </span>
<span>Solving this for N gives </span>
<span>N = 36/99, or 4/11 </span>
<span>If you take a calculator (or use long division) and divide 4 by 11, you'll see that it's 0.36363636...</span>
