Answer:

  • 5000 shares of stock fund
  • 6000 shares of bond fund

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b represent the number of shares of the bond fund owned. Then the value of the pension fund is ...

  15b +12(11000-b) = 150000

  3b = 18000 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 130,000

  b = 6000 . . . . . . . . . shares of bond fund

  11000 -b = 5000 . . . shares of stock fund

Variable y varies directly with variable x. If x = 12, then y = 3. What is the value of y
Monica [59]

Answer:

<h2>y = 2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of y when x = 8 we must first find the relationship between the two variables.

The statement

y varies directly with variable x is written as

y = kx

where k is the constant of proportionality

when

x = 12

y = 3

Substitute the values into the above formula and solve for k

That's

3 = 12k

Divide both sides by 12

k =  \frac{1}{4}

So the formula for the variation is

y =  \frac{1}{4} x

when

x = 8

y =  \frac{1}{4}  \times 8

we have the final answer as

<h3>y = 2</h3>

Hope this helps you
