Answer:

Value of the stock traded was $5200.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question it is given that trading company charges commission of $10 per trade or transaction plus $.025 per dollar value of stock.We have to calculate the value of stock we traded if total commission (commission on trade value + commission on trade) is $140.

Let the value of stock traded was $x.

Then commission on value of the stock = x×.025

Commission on transaction = $10

Total commission = 140 = ( .025x + 10)

⇒.025x = 140-10 = 130

x = 130÷.025 = $5200

So the value of the stock = $5200

Answer:

$5200  

Step-by-step explanation:

Let C = total commission

and d = dollar value of stock

Then

C = 10 + 0.025d

Let C =140

140 = 10 + 0.025d     Subtract 10 from each side

130 = 0.025d               Divide each side by 0.025

  d = $5200

The value of the stock was $5200.

<em>Check: </em>

140 = 10 + 0.025 × 5200

140 = 10 + 130

140 = 140

jose is hiking a trail that is 2 /4 miles long. he hikes 1 5/8 miles before resting how much farther does he have left
Yanka [14]

The number of miles that Jose will have left after resting will be 1 1/8 miles.

Total distance to be covered = 2 3/4 miles

Distance traveled = 1 5/8 miles

Therefore, in order to get the distance that's left for Jose to complete his journey, we've to subtract the distance traveled from the total distance and this will be:

= 2 3/4 - 1 5/8

= 2 6/8 - 1 5/8

= 1 1/8

Therefore, he has 1 1/8 miles left to travel.

Please help!! Andy is 2 year older than jeff. in 5 years the sum of their ages will be 40 years . find their ages now .... provi
ANTONII [103]
Andy's age            = x
Jeff's age              = x-2
Andy's age in five years            = x+5
Jeff's age in five years              = x-2+5
The sum of their ages in five years        = x+5 + x-2+5

                                       x + 5 + x - 2 + 5 = 40
                                         2x + 8 = 40
                                         <u>    -8        -8</u>
                                              2x = 32
                                             <u> :2      :2</u>
                                               x = 16
x - 2 = 14
