Answer:

C) 366 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Capital gains taxes are classified into:

Short term capital gains which are taxed at the same marginal tax rate than ordinary income. Any investment held for one year or less is subject to short term capital gains.
Long term capital gains which are taxed at a generally lower tax rate, e.g. 0 - 15% - 20%. An investment must be held for more than one year to be considered a long term capital gain.

Answer:

The length of river frontage for each lot are 96.55 ft. 98.85 ft, 101.15 ft and 103.45 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

See the attached diagram.

The river frontage of 400 ft will be divided into 84 : 86 : 88 : 90 for each lot as AP, BQ, CR, DS and ET all are parallel.

Therefore, PQ : QR : RS : ST = 84 : 86 : 88 : 90 = 42 : 43 : 44 : 45

Let, PQ = 42x, QR = 43x, RS = 44x and ST = 45x

So, (42x + 43x + 44x + 45x) = 400

⇒ 175x = 400

⇒ x = 2.2988.

So, PQ = 42x = 96.55 ft.

QR = 43x = 98.85 ft.

RS = 44x = 101.15 ft and

ST = 45x = 103.45 ft

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the 2 roots be A and A^2.

Then A^3 = c/a and A + A^2 = -b/a.

Using the identity a^3 b^3 = (a + b)^3 - 3ab^2 - 3a^2b:-

A^3 + (A^2)^3 = ( A + A^2)^3 - 3 A.A^4 - 3 A^2. A^2

= (A + A^2)^3 - 3A*3( A + A^2)

Substituting:-

c/a + c^2/a^2 = (-b/a)^3 - 3 (c/a)(-b/a)

Multiply through by a^3:-

a^2c + ac^2 = -b^3 + 3abc

Factoring:-

ac(a + c) = 3abc - b^3

This is not the formula required in the question but let's see if the formula in the question reduces to this. If it does we have completed the proof.

a(c - b)^3 = a(c^3 - 3c^2b + 3cb^2 - b^3) = ac^3 - 3ac^2b + 3acb^2 - ab^3

c(a - b)^3 = c(a^3 - 3a^2b + 3ab^2 - b^3) = ca^3 - 3a^2bc + 3acb^2 - cb^3.

These are equal so we have

ca^3 - 3a^2bc + 3acb^2 - cb^3 = ac^3 - 3abc^2 + 3acb^2 - ab^3

The 3acb^2 cancel out so we have:-

a^3c - ac^3 = 3a^2bc - 3abc^2 + b^3c - ab^3

ac(a^2 - c^2) = 3abc( a - c) + b^3(c - a)

ac(a + c)(a -c) = 3abc(a - c) - b^3 (a - c)

Divide through by (a - c):-

ac(a + c) = 3abc - b^3 , which is the result we got earlier.

This completes the proof.
