Answer:

The price of the stock in the beginning of the day was $26.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using a rule of three.

The initial stock of the company, that we want to find, was 100% = 1.

$27.03 is an increase of 2%, so it is 100+2 = 102% = 1.02%. So

$27.03 - 1.02

$x - 1

$1.02x = 27.03$

$x = \frac{27.03}{1.02}$

$x = 26.5$

The price of the stock in the beginning of the day was $26.5.

bagirrra123 [75]

FOR THE FIRST PROBLEM:

Differentiating p^2 + 2q^2 = 1100 with respect to time => 2p(dp/dt) + 4q(dq/dt) = 0

dp/dt = -2q/p(dq/dt) 

R = pq 

dR/dt = p(dq/dt) + q(dp/dt) = -p²/2q(dp/dt) + q(dp/dt) = (2q² - 1100)/2q * (dp/dt) + q(dp/dt) 

A = (2q - 550/q)

A crew will arrive in one week and begin filming a city for a movie. The mayor is desperate to clean the city streets before fil

Reptile [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

1 week = 7 days of 24 hours each = 7×24 = 168 hours.

the first team can do 1/700 of the total work per hour.

the second team can do 1/600 if the total work per hour.

if they work together, then 1/700 + 1/600 of the total work can be done per hour.

to add these 2 fractions we need to bring them to the same denominator. and that would be 4200 (LCM of 700 and 600).

1/700 + 1/600 = 6/4200 + 7/4200 = 13/4200

so, together, they can do 13/4200 if the total job in 1 hour.

how many hours will they need together to finish the job ?

well, how often does 13 fit into 4200 (as 4200/4200 is the complete job) ?

4200 / 13 = 323.0769231... hours

so, it will still take a little bit over 323 hours to clean all the streets.

but there are only 168 hours until the film crew starts.

so, no, there is not enough time.

Marat540 [252]

I = Prt
I=1020
r=0.12 (12% converted to decimal by dividing by 100)
t=5
1020=P(0.12)(5)
1020=P(0.6)
P=1700

Evaluate x(y-z)2 for =-1,y=5,and z=

Nata [24]

Answer:

The value of $x(y-z)^2$ is -16.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to evaluate $x(y-z)^2$ for x = -1, y = 5 and let us assume that z = 1

It can be simply done by putting the values of x,y and z in the given expression.

$x(y-z)^2=(-1)(5-1)^2\\\\=-1(4)^2$

We know that the value of 4² = 16

So,

$x(y-z)^2=16\times -1\\\\=-16$

So, the value of $x(y-z)^2$ is -16.
