Total number of stocks bought = 20
Rate at which each stocks were bought = 31 1/2
= 63/2
Rate at which 20 stocks were bought = 20 * (63/2) dollars
= 10 * 63 dollars
= 630 dollars
Rate at which each stocks were sold = 35 1/4
= 141/4 dollars
Rate at which 20 stocks were sold = 20 * (141/4) dollars
= 5 * 141 dollars
= 705 dollars
Then
Amount of profit made by selling 20 stocks = (705 - 630) dollars
= 75 dollars
So the total amount of profit made is $75. The correct option in regards to the given question is option "D".
1) he is not reasonable because pounds per feet would mean you would do 7.3/14.6 which is a decimal
hope this helped :)
Let the both the parts be 'x' and 'y'
x>y
We know that 4x = 5y
so x = 5y/4
x + y = 54
Replacing x we get
(5y/4) + y = 54
(5y +4y)/4 = 54
9y = 216
y = 24
Replacing y in ' x+y = 54'
we get x = 30
Hence the larger part is 30 whereas the smaller part is 24
(a-b) X (a+b)
= aXa - bXa +aXb -bXb (distributing)
Now, cross product of a vector with itself = 0
so, aXa = 0, bXb = 0
Also, aXb = - bXa
so,
(a-b) X (a+b) = 0 + aXb + aXb + 0
= 2aXb
hence, proved :)
