kompoz [17]

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.

Sam needs 7 1/2 cups of orange juice to make punch for a group of her friends. She only has 5 1/3 cups. Write and solve an equat

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

Equation is $x+\frac{16}{3}=\frac{15}{2}$ where $x$ denotes number of cups of orange juice needed by Sam.

$x=\frac{13}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $x$ denotes number of cups of orange juice needed by Sam.

Number of cups needed to make punch $=7\frac{1}{2} =\frac{15}{2}$

Number of cups with Sam $=5\frac{1}{3}=\frac{16}{3}$

Therefore,

$x+\frac{16}{3}=\frac{15}{2}\\\\x= \frac{15}{2}-\frac{16}{3}\\\\x=\frac{45-32}{6}\\\\x=\frac{13}{6}$

krek1111 [17]

Okay, to find the ratio, add up all the numbers of DVDs.
You should end up with 36 DVDs.

The question states that you need to find the ratio between the action DVDs and the total amount of DVDs.

The amount of action DVDs is 12.

Now take 32 and 12, the ratio of the action DVDs and the total amount of DVDs to get your ratio.

The ratio is 12 out of 31, or 12:32
