Answer:

Logan bought the stocks at $2,750,000

Step-by-step explanation:

So according to the question $3,437,500 is the amount at which 25% interest was made

This means that the original value(100% value) has been increased to 125%(thus 100+25%)

By using ratio and proportion,

If 125%-$3437500

then 100% ={100%/125%}×$3,437,50

=$2,750,000

One survey estimates that,on average, the retail value of a mid sized car decreases by8% annually.if the retail value of a car i
Scrat [10]
Percentage by which the average value of mid sized car decreases each year = 8%
Retail value of a car today = v dollars
Amount of decrease in the value of the car after 1 year = (8/100) * v
                                                                                         = 2v/25 dollars
Then
The equation that represents the value of the car after 1 year = v - (2v/25) dollars
                                                                                                   = (25v - 2v)/25 dollars
                                                                                                   = 23v/25 dollars
So following this expression the value of the mid sized car can be easily determined after 1 year. I hope this is the answer you were looking for and the procedure is also clear to you.
