Answer:
Explanation:
aerospace engineering company borrowed $100,000 from the bank to get their company started. The company promised to pay a monthly payment of $500 to pay off the loan. The company could potentially turn profits of $20,000 a month. How long will it take the company to make $200000?
Amount borrowed = $100,000
Monthly repayment = $500
Monthly profit = $20,000
How long it'll take company to make $200,000
Since the company pays back $500 monthly, then net profit per month will be :
$20,000 - $500 = $19500
How long it'll take to make $200,000
Projected profit / net profit per month
$200,000 / $19500
= 10.256410
= about 10 months
The correct answer is: [B]: "semicolon" .

Choice: [A]: "comma" — is INCORRECT. Note that placing a "comma" would result in an error known as "comma splice".

Choice: [C]: "period" — is INCORRECT. Note that placing a "period" would be incorrect. Doing so would result in a new sentence that does not begin with a capital letter.

Choice: [D]: "no punctuation is needed" —is INCORRECT. Note that if the statement were left alone, the statement would be a "<u>run-on sentence</u>".

The correct answer is: [B]: "semicolon". If a new sentence could be formed; and if the ideas could connect; it is acceptable to place a "semicolon" between the "two potential statements to form one statement" ; and to NOT CAPITALIZE the first word of the "second [potential sentence]" —<u>unless</u> that "[second potential sentence] begins with a proper pronoun.
