The percent gain is 52.1%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Purchase price of one share = $22.75

Sale price of one share = $34.60

Total shares = 400

So,

Total purchase price of shares = 22.75*400 = $9100

Total sale price of shares = 34.60*400 = $13840

Total capital gain:

$= Sale\ price - Purchase\ price\\= 13840 - 9100\\=4740$

Percent capital gain is given by:

$Capital\ gain = \frac{Capital\ gain}{Purchase\ price} * 100\\= \frac{4740}{9100} * 100\\=0.5208*100\\=52.08$

Rounding off to nearest tenth

52.1%

Hence,

The percent gain is 52.1%

What is the value of x?

BlackZzzverrR [31]

We can use the Pythagorean theorum

a^2+b^2=c^2

c^2 is the length of the longest side squared

so

6^2 + b^2 = 10^2

36+ b^2 = 100
-36 -36

b^2 = 64

b = 8

b is the same thing as your "x", so x = 8

IF XPOWER 3 =27,THEN X POWER 2=

kvv77 [185]

X²= 9

X POWER 3= 27

X³= 27

The number that can be multiplied three times to get 27 is 3

Therefore X POWER 2 (X²) can be calculated as follows

= 3²

= 3 × 3

= 9

Hence XPOWER 2 is 9

Solve the given differential equation by using an appropriate substitution. the de is homogeneous. (y2 yx) dx − x2 dy = 0

Schach [20]

The solution for the given differential equation is lnlxl = $\frac{-x}{y} +C$

Given,

$(y^{2} +y^{x} )dx - x^{2} dy =0$

Here,

x = vy, dx = vdy + ydv

y = ux, dy = udx + xdu

Then,

$((ux)^{2} +(ux)x)dx-x^{2} (udx+xdu)=0\\=u^{2} x^{2} dx+ux^{2} dx-x^{2} udx-x^{3} du=0\\=u^{2} x^{2} dx=x^{3} du\\=\frac{x^{2} }{x^{3} } dx=\frac{1}{u^{2} } du$
