Answer:

Paul has negative worth of $2,900

His statement is invalid as he did not consider all assets and debts in aggregate.

Step-by-step explanation:

The net worth of Paul is the total asset owned by him less the total of debts owed by him.

Paul's total assets can computed thus:

Stock portfolio                 $21,000

Home worth                     $365,000

Car worth                          $19,000

Total assets                       $405,000

Paul's total debts can be computed as follows:

Mortgage loan                     $362,000

Car loan                                $16,250

credit card debt                     $11,750

Student loan                          $17,900

Total debts                             $407,900

The amount of debts owed by Paul is $2,900($405,000-$407,900) more than his asset worth,which implies that Paul is indebted to the tune of $2,900,hence has negative worth.

n example 3, your friend says that there is enough information to determine the numbers of solutions of the equations $3(5x+2)=1
mr_godi [17]

The number of solutions of the equations can't be determined.

<h3>How to illustrate the information?</h3>

It should be noted an equation shows the relationship between the variables. It should be noted that the question is to find the number of solutions.

From the information, 3(5x + 2) = 15x

15x + 6 = 15x

Collect like terms

15x - 15x = - 6

0 = -6

Therefore, it can be see that the friend is incorrect as the number of solutions of the equations can't be determined.

Find the values of x and y.
vova2212 [387]

Look at the picture.

We have the equation (1) 12x + 4y = 40.

We know, the sum of the acute angles in a right triangle is 90°.

Therefore we have the equation (2) (12x + 4y) + (17x - y) = 90

Substitute (1) to (2):

40 + 17x - y = 90        <em>subtract 40 from both sides</em>

17x - y = 50   (3)

We have the system of equations:

\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}12x + 4y = 40&|:4\\17x-y=50\end{array}\right\\\underline{+\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}3x + y = 10\\17x-y=50\end{array}\right}\ \text{add both side of equations}\\.\qquad20x=60\qquad|:20\\.\qquad x=3

Substitute the value of x to (3)

17(3)-y=50\\51-y=50\qquad|-51\\-y=-1\to y=1

Answer: x = 3 and y = 1.
