2 dude, 2..........................................
What equation?
??? I can’t see any equation
The equation would be y=2/3x+4
So to finish the equation, you would need the slope and the y-intercept. The y-intercept is where the line hits the y-axis. So it hits the y-axis at (0,4), making the y-intercept 4.
Next find the slope. Do this by picking two points and plugging it into the equation
y2-y1/x2-x1
(0,4) (3,6)
6-4/3-0
2/3
So it would be y=2/3x+4
Here is the solution of the given problem above:
The first thing we should do is to multiply 50 and 13 3/4
13 3/4 is equivalent to 13.75 .
So, we then multiply
50 x 13.75 and we get 687.50.
so, $687.50 was the amount spent on the stock.
Now, lets find out how much they sold them for:
What we do is multiply 12 and 50
50 x 12 would be 600
We can find out the loss by subtracting
$687.50 - $600 and that gives us $ 87.50.
Therefore, the amount that is loss in selling is $87.50. The correct answer would be option B. Hope this answer helps.
