22.7%

Given that last year stock for company A was $7200
The stock for company B last year was worth $3510
Stock in company A decreased by 24%
This means the new value of stock for company A became;
(100-24)/100 *$7200
76/100*$7200
0.76*7200 =$5472
Stock in company B decreased by 20%
This means the new value of stock for company B became;
(100-20)/100 *$3510
80/100*$3510
0.8*$3510
$2808
Original investors stock value was = $7200+$3510 =$10710
New investors stock value is = $5472+$2808=$8280
Decrease in value of stock = $10710-$8280 =$2430
percentage decrease in stock value = decrease in stock/original value of stock *100%
=2430/10710 *100 =22.689
=22.7%

Find the slope of the line that passes through the following points: (5, 3) and (-2, -4)

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, you must subtract the second y axis from the first y axis then the second x axis from the first x axis.

Problem: (5, 3) (-2, -4)

Solution: Step 1. - 4 - 3 = 7 (subtract the second y axis from the first y axis)

Step 2. - 2 - 5 = 7 (subtract the second x axis from the first x axis)

Simplify ten to the eighth divided by ten to the negative third.

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

$10^{11}$

Step-by-step explanation:

A statement is given i.e. "ten to the eighth divided by ten to the negative third."

It means that 10 to power 8 divided by 10 to the power -3.

Mathematically,

$\dfrac{10^8}{10^{-3}}$

We know that, $\dfrac{x^a}{x^b}=x^{a-b}$

Here, x = 10, a = 8 and b = -3

So,

$\dfrac{10^8}{10^{-3}}=10^{8-(-3)}\\\\=10^{8+3}\\\\=10^{11}$

So, the answer is $10^{11}$

The kingston review (kr) is testing a new gmat question. the kr wants to determine what proportion of test-takers will answer th

oksian1 [2.3K]

[67.9 %, 82.1 %] is the 95% confidence interval for the proportion of test-takers answering the question correctly. So we have [67.9 %, 82.1 %] In a random sample of 144 test-takers with 75% answered the question correctly. So the answer in this question is [67.9 %, 82.1 %].

Sketch the graph of each line.<br> 2x-5y=25

ki77a [65]

Well, you transform the standard form equation into slope-intercept form (y=mx+b), since you can only graph it using this form.

First of all, the layout of the equation is $Ax+By=C$

So, in this case, A is 2, B is 5, and C is 25.

Now, to put it into slope intercept form, you either use the formula to change it and solve it:

$y= \frac{-A}{B}x+ \frac{C}{B} \\ y= \frac{-2}{-5}x+ \frac{25}{-5} \\ \\ y= \frac{2}{5}x-5$

Or you can just solve for y:

$2x-5y=25 \\ 2x-5y-2x=25-2x \\ -5y=-2x+25 \\ \frac{-5y}{-5}= \frac{-2x+25}{-5} \\ \\ y= \frac{2}{5}x-5$

In addition, I attached what the graph looks like.

Hope this helps!
