Answer:

30%

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. 500 - 350 = 150
  2. Set up a proportion: \frac{150}{500} = \frac{x}{100}  
  3. Cross multiply, then divide: 150 × 100 = 15000, 15000 ÷ 500 = 30
  4. Write the completed fraction: \frac{30}{100}  
  5. \frac{30}{100} = 30%

I hope this helps!

(x^(2)-11x+30)/(x^(2)-25)*(x^(2)+6x+5)/(x-5x-6) simplify the rational expression
DanielleElmas [232]
Simplify the following:
((x^2 - 11 x + 30) (x^2 + 6 x + 5))/((x^2 - 25) (x - 5 x - 6))

The factors of 5 that sum to 6 are 5 and 1. So, x^2 + 6 x + 5 = (x + 5) (x + 1):
((x + 5) (x + 1) (x^2 - 11 x + 30))/((x^2 - 25) (x - 5 x - 6))

The factors of 30 that sum to -11 are -5 and -6. So, x^2 - 11 x + 30 = (x - 5) (x - 6):
((x - 5) (x - 6) (x + 5) (x + 1))/((x^2 - 25) (x - 5 x - 6))

x - 5 x = -4 x:
((x - 5) (x - 6) (x + 5) (x + 1))/((x^2 - 25) (-4 x - 6))

Factor -2 out of -4 x - 6:
((x - 5) (x - 6) (x + 5) (x + 1))/(-2 (2 x + 3) (x^2 - 25))

x^2 - 25 = x^2 - 5^2:
((x - 5) (x - 6) (x + 5) (x + 1))/(-2 (x^2 - 5^2) (2 x + 3))

Factor the difference of two squares. x^2 - 5^2 = (x - 5) (x + 5):
((x - 5) (x - 6) (x + 5) (x + 1))/(-2(x - 5) (x + 5) (2 x + 3))

((x - 5) (x - 6) (x + 5) (x + 1))/((x - 5) (x + 5) (-2) (2 x + 3)) = ((x - 5) (x + 5))/((x - 5) (x + 5))×((x - 6) (x + 1))/(-2 (2 x + 3)) = ((x - 6) (x + 1))/(-2 (2 x + 3)):
((x - 6) (x + 1))/(-2 (2 x + 3))

Multiply numerator and denominator of ((x - 6) (x + 1))/(-2 (2 x + 3)) by -1:

Answer: (-(x - 6) (x + 1))/(2 (2 x + 3))

Number    Price per     Total            Commission                    Total cost

of Shares  Share                             (At 6% of total)        

100           $16.25          $1625         1625\times \frac{6}{100}=97.5      1625+97.5 = $1722.5      

100           $11.31            $1131           1131\times \frac{6}{100}=67.86    1131+67.86=$1198.86

40             $9.15             $366          366\times \frac{6}{100}=21.96      366+21.96=$387.96

Y=5/2x -4 how to graph it
Igoryamba

Looking at y=-%285%2F2%29x we can see that the equation is in slope-intercept form y=mx%2Bb where the slope is m=-5%2F2 and the y-intercept is b=0 note: y=-%285%2F2%29x really looks like y=-%285%2F2%29x%2B0

Since b=0 this tells us that the y-intercept is .Remember the y-intercept is the point where the graph intersects with the y-axis

So we have one point  

Now since the slope is comprised of the "rise" over the "run" this means

slope=rise%2Frun

Also, because the slope is -5%2F2, this means:

rise%2Frun=-5%2F2

which shows us that the rise is -5 and the run is 2. This means that to go from point to point, we can go down 5 and over 2

So starting at , go down 5 units

and to the right 2 units to get to the next point  

Now draw a line through these points to graph y=-%285%2F2%29x

So this is the graph of y=-%285%2F2%29x through the points  

Hope this helps
