Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:    First, let's call the starting elevation of the plane: e

We can then write an equation representing this problem as:    

e−1.5mi=5.25mi

Now, add 1.5mi  to each side of the equation to solve for e

while keeping the equation balanced:

e−1.5mi + 1.5mi=5.25mi + 1.5mi

e−0=6.75mi

e=6.75mi

The plane's starting elevation was 6.75 miles

A hiker leaves camp and walks 6 miles east. Then he walks 18 miles south. How far from camp is the hiker? Distance in miles: Usi
Mrac [35]

Answer: 19 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, since the situation forms a right triangle (see attachment) we have to apply the Pythagorean Theorem:  

c^2 = a^2 + b^2  

Where c is the hypotenuse of the triangle (in this case the distance between the hiker and the camp) and a and b are the other sides.  

Replacing with the values given:  

x^2 = 6^2 + 18^2  

x^2 = 36+324

x^2 = 360

x = √360

x = 18.97miles = 19 miles

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

You are considering a stock investment in one of two firms (Lotsof Debt, Inc. and LotsofEquity, Inc.), both of which operate in
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

LotsofDebt, Inc Debt Ratio is 93.75%

LotsofEquity, Inc Debt Ratio is 6.25%

equity multiplier LotsofDebt, Inc is 16

equity multiplier LotsofEquity, Inc is 1.0666666667

debt-to-equity LotsofDebt, Inc is $15 million

debt-to-equity LotsofEquity, Inc. is $0.0666666667 million

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate the debt ratio of LotsofDebt, Inc and LotsofEquity, Inc.  we would have to make the following calculations:

Debt Ratio = Debt/Assets

According to the given data we have the following:

LotsofDebt, Inc Debt=$30 million

LotsofDebt, Inc Asset=Debt + Equity = $30 million + $2 million = $32 million

Therefore, LotsofDebt, Inc Debt Ratio =$30 million/$ 32 million

LotsofDebt, Inc Debt Ratio= 93.75%

LotsofEquity, Inc. Debt=$2 million

LotsofEquity, Inc Asset= Debt + Equity = $2 million + $30 million

LotsofEquity, Inc Debt Ratio = $2 million/$32 million

LotsofEquity, Inc Debt Ratio = 6.25%

In order to calculate the equity multiplier of LotsofDebt, Inc and LotsofEquity, Inc.  we would have to make the following calculations:

equity multiplier =Assets/Equity

equity multiplier LotsofDebt, Inc.=$32 million/$2 million

equity multiplier LotsofDebt, Inc= 16

equity multiplier LotsofEquity, Inc=$32 million/$30 million

equity multiplier LotsofEquity, Inc = 1.0666666667

In order to calculate the debt-to-equity of LotsofDebt, Inc and LotsofEquity, Inc.  we would have to make the following calculations:

debt-to-equity LotsofDebt, Inc=Debt/Equity

debt-to-equity LotsofDebt, Inc=$30 million/$2 million

debt-to-equity LotsofDebt, Inc= $15 million

debt-to-equity LotsofEquity, Inc.= $2 million/$30 million = 0.0666666667

debt-to-equity LotsofEquity, Inc.= $0.0666666667 million
