Step-by-step explanation:

The distance from the surfer to the shoreline will be found as follows:

tan θ= opposite/adjacent

θ=10°

opposite=7ft

adjacent= x ft

substituting the values in our formula and solving for x we get

tan 10=7/x

hence

x=7/tan10

x=39.69897~ 39.7 ft

The surfer is 39.7 ft from the shoreline.

A stock trading company charges a commission of $10 per trade plus $0.025 per dollar value of stock traded. If your commission i
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

Value of the stock traded was $5200.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question it is given that trading company charges commission of $10 per trade or transaction plus $.025 per dollar value of stock.We have to calculate the value of stock we traded if total commission (commission on trade value + commission on trade) is $140.

Let the value of stock traded was $x.

Then commission on value of the stock = x×.025

Commission on transaction = $10

Total commission = 140 = ( .025x + 10)

⇒.025x = 140-10 = 130

x = 130÷.025 = $5200

So the value of the stock = $5200
