Answer:

(d)              

Step-by-step explanation:

Bond's par value = $500

market value of the bond = 88.754% * 500

                                           = 443.77

Commission rate charged by broker A = 3.1%

Commission of broker A = \frac{3.1}{100}*443.77

                                        = $13.75687

Commission of broker B = $24

Difference between the commission of broker A and broker B = 24-13.756

                                                                                                      = $10.24

Hence, (d) Broker A's commission will be $10.24 less then Broker B's.

Answer:He should take the option one of sales commission of 3.1% on

each bond. If he takes the 2nd option, he is required to pay 24$ per

bond. But if he takes the ist option, he is required to pay 15.5$ per bond.

88.754 is the market rate. Total investment is of 500$. Multiply the commission

rate with the amount and you get 15.5 $. There is a difference of 8.5 dollars

between the two options.

The answer is D

PLS HELP! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

  • The center (2, 2.5), radius \sqrt{37} / 2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The standard form of the equation of a circle is: </u>

  • ( x - h )^2 + ( y - k )^2 = r^2, where ( h, k ) is the center and r is the radius

<u>Rewrite the given equation in the standard form:</u>

  • 2x^2 + 2y^2 - 8x + 10y + 2 = 0
  • x^2 - 4x + y^2 + 5y = -1
  • x^2 - 4x + 2^2 + y^2 + 5y + (5/2)^2 = -1 + 4 + 25/4
  • (x - 2)^2 + (y + 2.5)^2 = 37/4

<u>The center is:</u>

  • (2, 2.5)

<u>And radius is:</u>

  • <u />\sqrt{37} / 2

What is the weight per cm? ​
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

  2/5 g/cm

Step-by-step explanation:

When you want to know "A per B", divide the given quantity of A by the corresponding quantity of B. ("Per" essentially means "divided by".)

It can be convenient to choose table values that make the division easy:

  12 g/(30 cm) = 4/10 g/cm = 0.4 g/cm

  20 g/(50 cm) = 2/5 g/cm . . . . . . . . . . . . . same as 0.4 g/cm

I'm really confused about this question about Solving Systems by Elimination
velikii [3]

Answer:

x=10

y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

1)add the equations and find what x is.

x-y=8

+x+y=12

—————

2x=20

— —

2 2

x=10

3)fill in x for the second equation.

x+y=12

since x=10,replace x with 10.

10+y=12.

subtract 19 from both sides.

10+y=12

-10 -10

—————-

y=2
