Answer:
Paul has negative worth of $2,900
His statement is invalid as he did not consider all assets and debts in aggregate.
Step-by-step explanation:
The net worth of Paul is the total asset owned by him less the total of debts owed by him.
Paul's total assets can computed thus:
Stock portfolio $21,000
Home worth $365,000
Car worth $19,000
Total assets $405,000
Paul's total debts can be computed as follows:
Mortgage loan $362,000
Car loan $16,250
credit card debt $11,750
Student loan $17,900
Total debts $407,900
The amount of debts owed by Paul is $2,900($405,000-$407,900) more than his asset worth,which implies that Paul is indebted to the tune of $2,900,hence has negative worth.
Answer:
Option C is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
y = x^2-x-3 eq(1)
y = -3x + 5 eq(2)
We can solve by substituting the value of y in eq(2) in the eq(1)
-3x+5 = x^2-x-3
x^2-x+3x-3-5=0
x^2+2x-8=0
Now factorizing the above equation
x^2+4x-2x-8=0
x(x+4)-2(x+4)=0
(x-2)(x+4)=0
(x-2)=0 and (x+4)=0
x=2 and x=-4
Now finding the value of y by placing value of x in the above eq(2)
put x =2
y = -3x + 5
y = -3(2) + 5
y = -6+5
y = -1
Now, put x = -4
y = -3x + 5
y = -3(-4) + 5
y = 12+5
y =17
so, when x=2, y =-1 and x=-4 y=17
(2,-1) and (-4,17) is the solution.
So, Option C is correct.
Your answer is unlikely. That would be a 1 out of 10 chance.
Given that Erica and AAron,are using lottery system to decide who will wash dishes every night.
They put some red and blue power chips and draw each one. If same colour, Aaron will wash and if not same colours Erica will wash
If the game is to be fair, then both should have equal chances of opportunity for washing.
i.e. Probability for Erica washing = Prob of Aaron washing
i.e. P(different chips) = P(same colour chips)
Say there are m red colours and n blue colours.
Both are drawing at the same time.
Hence Prob (getting same colour) = (mC2+nC2)/(m+n)C2
Probfor different colour = mC1+nC1/(m+n)C2
The two would be equal is mC2 +nC2 = m+n
This is possible if mC2 =m and nC2 = n.
Or m = 2+1 =3 and n =3
That for a fair game we must have both colours to be 3.
I didn't mean to post the answer and can't figure out how to take it down. Somebody report it so it does go down and the question can be later answered. Thank you
