Answer:

A. September 1st only.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is based on assumptions.

Assumption 1st: Lets assume that the share was purchased on 1st January and all the other dates are also from the same year.

Assumption 2: In actual, the capital gain will be incurred if the share is sold on 1st September for $56. The gain will be of $56-45=11$ dollars.

But if we sell the share on 31st December, then also we are gaining $2.

So, both can be the answer. September 1 or December 31st. But let us assume that the share was sold for maximum gain, then the answer will be option A.

Moreover it depends from person to person who is willing to sell in September or in December.

But technically it can be only September as it has maximum gain.

Answer:

p=0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a club can select one member to attend a conference. All of the club officers want to attend. There are a total of four officers, and their designated positions within the club are President (P), Vice dash President (Upper V )comma Secretary (Upper S )comma nbspand Treasurer (Upper T ).

Sample space would be

a){ {P}, {V}, {S} {T}} is the sample space with notations standing for as given in the question

b) Each sample is equally likely. Hence we have equal chances for selecting any one out of the four.

If probability of selecting a particular sample of size I is p, the by total probability axiom we have

\begin{gathered}4p =1\\p =0.25\end{gathered}

4p=1

Which matrix represents the system of equations shown below? 3x-5y=12 4x-2y=15

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&-5 &|12\\4&-2 &|15\\\end{array}\right]$

Step-by-step explanation:

When making a matrix of two equations with the variables x and y, the result will be a matrix with three columns:

a column for the values of x in each equation
a column for the values of y in each equation
a column for the independent values of each equation

since our system of equations is:

$3x-5y=12\\ 4x-2y=15$

we can see that the value for x in the first equation is 3 and in the second equation is 4, thus the first column will have the numbers 3 and 4:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&&\\4&&\\\end{array}\right]$

Now for the values of y we hvae -5 in the first equation and -2 in the second equation, we update the matrix with another column with the values of -5 and -2:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&-5&\\4&-2&\\\end{array}\right]$

Finally, the last column is the independent values of each equation (or the results) in the first equation that number is 12 and in the second equation is 15, thus the matrix is:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&-5&12\\4&-2&15\\\end{array}\right]$

usually there is a line separating the columns for the values of x and y, and the independent values:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&-5 &|12\\4&-2 &|15\\\end{array}\right]$

this is the matrix of the system of equations

7.Sandy has a total of 35 coins in her money jar. If Sandy's jar contains only nickels and dimes and the value of all the coins

Mademuasel [1]

Answer: 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of nickels be x

Then the number of dimes, using

ONE PART = TOTAL MINUS OTHER PART,

is 35-x. ( hope this helps have a good day/night :) )

determine the average rate of change of the function between the given variables h(x) = x; x=a, x=a+h

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

the average rate of change is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the average rate of change of f(x)=x^2 on the interval [1,3].

The average rate of change of f(x) on the interval [a,b] is f(b)−f(a)/b−a.

We have that a=1, b=3, f(x)=x^2.

Thus, f(b)−f(a)/b−a=((3))^2−(((1))^2)/3−(1) = 4.
