From point A to C, which is the length of the entire line, it's 3x + 1.
AB = 2x + 4
BC = 10
This means that AB + BC = AC
All you have to do is plug in the equations.
(2x + 4) + (10) = (3x + 1)
2x + 14 = 3x + 1
2x + 13 = 3x
13 = x
Now plug in the value of x (13) into the AC equation (3x + 1).
AC = 3(13) + 1
AC = 39 + 1
AC = 40
The answer is:
a. 40
The list of the stocks and bond in order from the lowest default risk to the highest default risk is as follows:
Foreign government bond, preferred stock, common stock.
Government bonds are generally referred to as a low risk investment as they have a very low chance of default.
Preferred shared holders are considered first in the disbursement of dividend before common stockholder are considered. Thus, preferred stock is of less risk than common stock.
We solve the question as follows:
Simple interest=Principle×Rate×Time
Thus given:
p=$55000, R=2.5%, time= 1 year
thus
Interest=55000×0.025×1=$1375
To evaluate the amount required to keep up with the inflation, your interest rate should match the inflation rate otherwise prices are going up faster than the savings.
Required interest rate=55000×0.034×1=$1870
The buying power lost will be the difference between your required interest and actual interest.
Thus:
Buying power lost=1870-1375=$495
By comparing the given shape with easier ones like triangles and rectangles we will see that the area of the shape is 8 square units.
<h3>
How to simplify the shape.</h3>
So the given shape is a little bit complex, but you can actually see that it is a triangle with a base of 8 units with a height of 4 units, where a rectangle of 2 in by 3 in was removed, and also removed a triangle of height of 2 inches and base of 2 inches.
Remember that:
- A triangle of height H and base B has an area = B*H/2
- A rectangle of length L and width W has an area = L*W.
Then the area of the given shape is:
A = 8*4/2 - 3*2 - 2*2/2
A = 16 - 6 - 2
A = 8
So the given shape has an area of 8 square units.
