Answer:

   (6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is an isosceles trapezoid the length of the two legs (i.e.  AB = 5y-10 and CD = 2y+8) are equal.  In other words,

5y - 10 = 2 y + 8

Subtract 2y from each side:

5y - 2y - 10 = 8

Now add 10 to each side

5y - 2y - 10 + 10 = 8 + 10 =>

3y + 0 = 18 =>  

3y = 18 =>

y = 6

MaRussiya [10]
<h3>Answer:  D) 1/24</h3>

=============================================================

Explanation:

There are 4 digits to pick from and 4 slots to fill, so there are 4! = 4*3*2*1 = 24 different codes possible.

If we want the code to start with 371, then that must mean 5 is the only thing left for that fourth slot. In short, there's only one code that starts with 371 and that code is 3715

We have one code we want (3715) out of 24 total, which is why the answer is 1/24 (choice D)

Answer:

17. See below

18. 750

Step-by-step explanation:

17. Since the lollipops are being sold at the same price, 50 cents, for each one sold, they make a constant amount of money. For each increase in lollipops sold, there is a constant increase in money made, and thus the situation is a linear function.

18. To solve this equation, let's say y is the money made at the convention in dollars and x is the number of lollipops sold. If the principal gave them 125 dollars before they sold any lollipops (0 lollipops sold), then 125 is the y-intercept of the function, and in the equation y=mx+b, b=125. If each lollipop costs 50 cents (half of a dollar), then for each lollipop, x, sold, .5 dollars are made and are added to the profit, y. Thus, .5 dollars is the slope. The equation then becomes:

y=0.5x+125

Now, if they need 500 dollars, y is thus equal to 500 dollars. Solving the equation:

500=0.5x+125

500-125=0.5x

375=0.5x

\frac{375}{0.5} =x

375*2=x

750=x

Thus, 750 lollipops must be sold.

You own a portfolio that is invested 43 percent in stock a, 16 percent in stock b, and the remainder in stock
docker41 [41]

Multiply the investment fraction by the corresponding return, and add the products. The given fractions add to 59%, so the remainder is 41%. (The total of the fractions is 100%—all of the portfolio.)

... 0.43*9.1% + 0.16*16.7% + 0.41*11.4%

... = 3.913% + 2.672% + 4.674% = 11.259%
