Answer:

y = -2x -3

Step-by-step explanation:

- the altitude trough F is a perpendicular line to the line DE

- find slope of line DE

D ( x2 = -5, y2 = -1); E (x1 = 3, y1 = 3)

slope m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1) = (-1-3) / (-5-3) = -4/ -8 = 1/2

-find equation of the altitude trough F

lines that are perpendicular have the slope negative reciprocal (negative reciprocal of 1/2 is -2)

y= -2x +b , for point F(1, -5)

-5 = -2*1 +b, add 2 to both sides

-5 +2 = b, combine like terms

-3 =b

equation of the altitude trough F is y = -2x -3

When you buy the bond the exchange rate is ​$1.50 ​= pound1. You pay pound45 ​($67.50​) for the British bond. You sell the bond
natka813 [3]

Answer:

The gain is of $17.50

Step-by-step explanation:

When you buy the bond the exchange rate is ​$1.50 ​= £1.

You pay £45 = 1.50\times45=​$67.50 for the British bond.

No, you sell the bond for £50 and the exchange rate is​ $1.70 ​= £1.

So, you earned 50\times1.70=85 dollars

Your gain is 85-67.50 = $17.50
