The required debt-equity ratio is 14:15

<u>Solution:</u>

<em>Given:</em>

Liabilities of the company = $14000

Equity of the company = $15000

<em>To calculate: </em>The debt-equity ratio

Here, the liabilities are included in the debt of the company. The debt-to-equity (D/E) ratio is calculated by dividing a company's total liabilities by its shareholder equity. Therefore, the debt equity ratio is as follows,

\text { Debt Equity ratio }=\frac{\text { Debt }}{\text { Equity }}=\frac{14000}{15000}=\frac{14}{15}

\text { Debt Equity ratio }=\frac{14}{15} \rightarrow 14: 15

The debt-equity ratio reflects the ability of shareholder equity to cover all outstanding debts in the event of a business downturn.

2. Half of Robert's piece of wire is equal to of Maria's wire. The total length of their wires is 10 feet. How much longer is Ro
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Half of Robert's piece of wire is equal to of Maria's wire i.e.

\dfrac{R}{2}=M ....(1)

Total length of the wires = 10 feet

ATQ,

R+M=10 ....(2)

Use equation (1) in (2).

R+\dfrac{R}{2}=10\\\\\dfrac{3R}{2}=10\\\\R=\dfrac{20}{3}\\\\R=6.67\ ft

So,

M=\dfrac{6.67}{2}\\\\M=3.33\ ft

Hence, this is the required solution.

Sally begins hiking at an elevation of 224 feet. Then, she descends 131 feet and climbs 67 feet higher than her current position
Deffense [45]

Answer:

-3

Three feet below the initial elevation

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial elevation is 224 feet.

We take descent to be negative and ascent to be positive.

The numerical addition expression is

224+-131+67+-163

We simplify this to obtain:

224-131+67-163=-3

The negative sign means Sally is 3 feet below his initial elevation

a = 6 = Smaller base
b = 10 = Larger base
h = height

Area = A = (a + b)h/2 = 40

Plug in the values in the above equation:
h = (2*40)/(6+10)
h = 5 units
