Mathematics

8 0

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, AM=x+8

or, A=x+8-M......eqn (i)

MB=6x-2

or, B=6x-2-M......eqn (ii)

Now,

from eqn (i) and (ii)

x+8-M=6x-2-M

or, 8+2=6x-x-M+M

or, 10=5x

or, 10÷5=x

therefore, x=2

Again,

MB=6x-2

=6×2-2

=12-2

=10

is it correct

The price of a stock decreased by 60 cents one week, decreased 10 cents the next week, and decreased another 20 cents the follow
mel-nik [20]

Hi there! Hopefully this helps!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It <u>decreased by 30 cents</u> per week.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The average <em>rate of change</em> is calculated as:

the <u>ratio of the sum of the change</u> in the three weeks <u>divided by</u> <u>the number of weeks. (</u>The <em>number of weeks</em> being <u>3</u>)

 <em>Rate of change</em> = \frac{-60 -10 -20}{3}.

(-60 + -10 + -20 = -90). So, to <em>simplify</em> it:

\frac{-90}{3} = <u><em>-30</em></u>

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Incase you are confused:

Since the average <u>rate of change</u> is <em>negative</em>, this means that the <u>stock price</u> has <em>decreased</em>.
