Answer: $78
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are informed that the stock of Company A gained 2% today to $79.56. The opening price of the stock in the beginning of the day will be calculated as:
= [100% / (100% + 2%)] × 79.56
= (100% / 102%) × 79.56
= 1/1.02 × 79.56
= 79.56/1.02
= 78
Therefore, opening price of the stock in the beginning of the day is $78
The answer is D. y = -2x + 20. This is because it has a negative slope (-2x). When a number in a slope-intercept equation has the variable (x), that determines the positive or negative association. If it is a positive slope, it travels up from left to right. If it is a negative slope, it travels down from left to right.

Answer:
the correct choice is marked
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the smaller number. Then the larger number is 8x, and the difference is ...
8x -x = 280
7x = 280 . . . . . simplify
x = 40 . . . . . . divide by 7
The larger number is 8x = 8(40) = 320.

<em>Additional comment</em>
Effectively, we have solved for the multiplier (40) that gives the ratio with 320 on top and a difference between top and bottom of 280:
