Pierce wishes to purchase a municipal bond with a par value of $500 from Chattahoochee County, and he is trying to decide which

broker he should employ to purchase the bond. Broker A charges a 3.1% commission on the market value of each bond sold. Broker B charges a flat $24 for each bond sold. If the bond has a market rate of 88.754, which broker will give Pierce the better deal, and by how much? a. Broker B’s commission will be $9.75 less than Broker A’s. b. Broker B’s commission will be $3.51 less than Broker A’s. c. Broker A’s commission will be $13.76 less than Broker B’s. d. Broker A’s commission will be $10.24 less than Broker B’s.

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

Carly wants to add texting to her cell phone plan. She has two choices in texting packages. The TURKEY plan charges $.15 per tex
alina1380 [7]

TURKEY 0.15xy+20y

GOBBLE 0.20xy+0y

x is the number of texts and y is the number of months

400 texts will need to be sent each month because solving the equation 0.15xy+20y=0.20xy+0y

0.15xy+20y=0.20xy

-0.05xy+20y=0

-0.05xy=-20y

turn -0.05xy into (-y/20)x

(-y/20)x=-20y

((-y/20)x=-20y)/-y/20

x=-20y/-y/20

x=400

TURKEY plan because 0.15(500)y+20y is 95y and 0.20(500)y+0y is 100y, meaning TURKEY would be cheaper.

The sum of two polynomials is 10a2b2 – 8a2b 6ab2 – 4ab 2. if one addend is –5a2b2 12a2b – 5, what is the other addend? 15a2b2 –
Brrunno [24]

The other polynomial addend, when the sum of two polynomials is 10a2b2 – 8a2b 6ab2 – 4ab  is 15a²b²- 20a²b + 6ab² - 4ab + 7.

<h3>What is polynomial?</h3>

Polynomial equations is the expression in which the highest power of the unknown variable is n (n is real number).

The sum of two polynomials is,

10a^2b^2 - 8a^2b+ 6ab^2 - 4ab+2

The one polynomial addend is,

-5a^2b^2 +12a^2b - 5

Let suppose the other polynomial addend is f(a,b). Thus,

(-5a^2b^2 +12a^2b - 5)+f(a,b)=(10a^2b^2 - 8a^2b+ 6ab^2 - 4ab+2)

Isolate the second polynomial as,

f(a,b)=(10a^2b^2 - 8a^2b+ 6ab^2 - 4ab+2)-(-5a^2b^2 +12a^2b - 5)\\f(a,b)=10a^2b^2 - 8a^2b+ 6ab^2 - 4ab+2+5a^2b^2 -12a^2b + 5

Arrange the like terms as,

f(a,b)=10a^2b^2+5a^2b^2 - 8a^2b -12a^2b+ 6ab^2 - 4ab + 2+5\\f(a,b)=15a^2b^2- 20a^2b + 6ab^2 - 4ab + 7

Hence, the other polynomial addend, when the sum of two polynomials is 10a2b2 – 8a2b 6ab2 – 4ab  is 15a²b²- 20a²b + 6ab² - 4ab + 7.

Which of the following equations describes the line shown below? Check all<br> that apply.
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

B. y = 2x - 2

E. y + 4 = 2(x + 1)

F. y - 6 = 2(x - 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line can be found using either the point-slope equation or the slope-intercept equation.

✔️Equation of the line in point-slope using the slope and the coordinates of the point (4, 6):

Slope = m = change in y/change in x

Using (4, 6) and (-1, -4),

m = (-4 - 6)/(-1 - 4)

m = -10/-5

m = 2

Substitute m = 2, and (a, b) = (4, 6) into the point-slope equation form y - b = m(x - a)

Thus:

y - 6 = 2(x - 4)

✔️Equation of the line in point-slope using the slope and the coordinates of the point (-1, -4):

Slope = m = 2

Substitute m = 2, and (a, b) = (-1, -4) into the point-slope equation form y - b = m(x - a)

Thus:

y - (-4) = 2(x - (-1))

y + 4 = 2(x + 1)

✔️Equation of the line in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b

Where,

m = slope = 2

b = y-intercept = -2 (the point where the line intercepts the y-axis)

Thus, substitute m = 2 and b = -2 into y = mx + b

y = 2x + (-2)

y = 2x - 2
