To solve this problem, let us say that:
money invested in stock A = A
money invested in stock B = B
money invested in stock C = C
The given problem states that:
C = A * (1 / 4) = 0.25 A
B = A * (1 / 2) = 0.50 A
It was stated that we only have $16,000 to invest.
Therefore:
A + B + C = 16,000
Substituting values of C and B in terms of A:
A + 0.50 A + 0.25 A = 16,000
1.75 A = 16,000
A = $9,142.86
So C and B is:
C = 0.25 (9142.86)
C = $2285.71
B = 0.50 (9142.86)
B = $4571.43
Answer:

Which situation could be solved using the equation 
As we can see in the given equation , one number is -4 and the other number is 4
When we add two number of same value but opposite in sign we get zero.
This equivalent to the real life situation of paying a post paid bills.
Suppose you are using a post paid service , and the bills gets generated at the end of the month.
Suppose the bills amount is $x.
Once you pay that bills , then total outstanding again becomes $0.
Because 
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
In this case, you are looking for a value of K so the left side of the equation is equal to the right.
The left side of the equation is K (3x - 2), and the right is 4 - 6x. To get the left side to equal the right, you can set K = -2. This is because of the <u>distributive property</u>: a number just outside of the parenthesis can distribute to everything in the parenthesis like so:
-2 (3x - 2) = (-2 * 3x) - (-2 * -2) = -6x + 4
Therefore, your answer is K = -2.
Hope this helps!
(Side note: a better way to do this would be to divide both sides by 3x - 2)
