Answer:

1.d)1 22/32

2. b)45/64

3. c)3 1/3

4. a)98.19

5. b)5%

Explanation:

1. 54/32 converted to a mixed number is ________.a) 22/32 b)1.6875 c) 1/38 d)1 22/32

Mixed number is another way of writing improper fraction

54/32= 1 (54 - 32)/32

= 1 22/32

Therefore, option d) 1 22/32 is the correct option

2. The product of one and four thirty-seconds and twenty thirty-seconds is ________. a)1 24/32 b)45/64 c)56/32

d)720

One and four thirty-seconds = 1 4/32

Twenty thirty-seconds = 20/32

= 1 4/32 × 20/32

= 36/32 × 20/32

= 9/8 × 5/8

= 45/64

Therefore, option b)45/64 is the correct option

3. One and eight thirty-seconds divided by twelve thirty-seconds is ________. a)480/1024 b)20/1024 c)3 1/3 d)3 40/32

One and eight thirty-seconds = 1 8/32

Twelve thirty-seconds = 12/32

= 1 8/32 ÷ 12/32

= 40/32 ÷ 12/32

= 40/32 × 32/12

= 40/12

= 3 4/12

= 3 1/3

Therefore, option c) 3 1/3 is the correct option

4. A u.S. Treasury bond is trading at 98 and 6/32. Convert this price to its decimal form. a)98.19 b)96.63 c)9/86 d)98.06

98 and 6/32 = 98 + 6/32

We convert 6/32 to decimal

= 98 + 0.1875

= 98.1875

≈ 98.19

Therefore, Option a is the correct option

5. What is the percentage increase if the s&p 500 index is currently trading at 1,100 and rises 55 points? a)4.5% b)5% c)55% d)5.5%

Percentage increase = Increase/ Orginal amount × 100

Increase = 55 points

Original amount = 1,100

Percentage Increase = 55/1100 × 100

= 0.05 × 100

= 5%

Therefore, option b)5% is the correct option

Jack and Jill are the only two residents in a neighbourhood, and they would like to hire a security guard. The value of a securi
allsm [11]

Answer:

Jack and Jill

a. With a proportional tax of 1 percent on income, it would be enough to pay for the security guard $120.

Jack would pay $ __40___.

Jill would pay $ __80___.

This tax _will____ be enough to pay for the security guard.

b. Based on net benefit from the guard:

Jack would pay $ __43___.

Jill would pay $ _ 77____.

Would both Jack and Jill vote for this scheme? __No___ Jack will feel cheated by Jill in the sum of $3.  Jack will likely prefer the 1% based on income.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Value of a security guard for Jack = $50 per month

Value of a security guard for Jill = $90 per month

Total value of a security guard for both Jack and Jill = $140 ($50 + $90)

Cost of hiring a guard = $120 per month

Jack's monthly earnings = $4,000

Jill's monthly earnings = $8,000

Total monthly earnings for both Jack and Jill = $12,000

a. Proportional tax of 1 percent on income = $120 ($12,000 * 1%)

Jack will pay $4,000 * 1% = $40

Jill will pay $8,000 * 1% =    $80

Total = $120

b. Net benefit scheme:

Jack will pay $50/$140 * $120 = $43

Jill will pay $90/$140 * $120 =    $77

Total = $120
