A person has ​$28,000 invested in stock A and stock B. Stock A currently sells for ​$50 a share and stock B sells for ​$60 a share. If stock B triples in value and stock A goes up​ 50%, his stock will be worth ​$69,000. How many shares of each stock does he​ own?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Number of stock A = 200

Number of stock B = 300

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

Number of stock A shares = a

Number of stock B shares = b

Worth of stock A = 50 * a = 50a

Worth of stock B = 60 * b = 60b

50a + 60b = 28000 - - - (1)

Triple the value of stock B:

3 * 60 = 180

Value of stock A goes up by 50%

(100 + 50)% * 50 = 1.5 * 50 = 75

75a + 180b = 69000 - - - (2)

50a + 60b = 28000

75a + 180b = 69000

Multiply equation 1 by 3 and subtract

150a + 180b = 84000

75a + 180b = 69000

75a = 15000

a = 15000/75

a = 200

75(200) + 180b = 69000

15000 + 180b = 69000

180b = 69000 - 15000

180b = 54000

b = 300

Determine the equation of the graph with the coordinates of (4, -1)

O y = (x-4)2 - 1
O y=(x + 4)2 + 1
O y = (x + 4)2 - 1
O y = (x - 4)2 + 1

Answers

Answer:

The required equation of the graph with the coordinates of (4, -1) will be:

[tex]y=\left(x-4\right)^2-1[/tex]

The graph is also attached.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the coordinates (4, -1)

If we put the coordinate values (4, -1) in the given equations, we determine that only [tex]y=\left(x-4\right)^2-1[/tex] is the valid equation as it satisfies the given coordinate value.

For example, putting  (4, -1) in the equation

[tex]y=\left(x-4\right)^2-1[/tex]

[tex]\left(-1\right)=\left(4-4\right)^2-1[/tex]

[tex]-1=\left(0\right)^2-1[/tex]

[tex]-1=0-1[/tex]

[tex]-1=-1[/tex]

So, the equation [tex]y=\left(x-4\right)^2-1[/tex] is true for the coordinate values (4, -1).

Therefore, the required equation of the graph with the coordinates of (4, -1) will be:

[tex]y=\left(x-4\right)^2-1[/tex]

Please check, the graph is also attached.

3. (Angles add up to 180)

30x + 4 + 86 = 180

30x + 90 = 180

subtract 90 from both sides

30x = 90

Now divide by 30

x = 3

Check your work ( input 3 to the equation)

30(3) + 4 + 84

90+ 90 = 180  it works :)  

4. (Angles are adjacent to each other so there equal)

10x - 3 = 77

add 3 to both sides

10x = 80

divide it by 10

x = 8

Check your work ( input 8 to the equation )

10(8) -3 = 77

80 - 3 = 77

77 = 77

y = 2x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = 2, thus

y = 2x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (3, 5) into the partial equation

5 = 6 + c ⇒ c = 5 - 6 = - 1

y = 2x - 1 ← equation of line

Using the Incenter P, find the measure of ∠ZPX.




117°

140°

64°

129°

42°

132°

Answers

Answer:

The measure of ∠ZPX is 63°

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The incenter of the triangle = P

m∠KXP = 31°, m∠PYJ = 27°, [tex]\overline {ZP}[/tex] = 20 feet

Given that the segment [tex]\overline {XJ}[/tex] from the vertex, X, passes through the incenter of the triangle, we have;

The segment [tex]\overline {XJ}[/tex] bisects ∠KXL to form ∠KXP and ∠LXP

Therefore, ∠KXP = ∠LXP = 31°

∠KXL = ∠KXP + ∠LXP = 31° + 31° = 62°

∠KXL = 62°

Similarly;

The segment [tex]\overline {YL}[/tex] bisects ∠KYJ to form ∠PYJ and ∠PYK

Therefore, ∠PYJ = ∠PYK = 27°

∠KYJ = ∠PYJ  + ∠PYK = 27° + 27° = 54°

∠KYJ = 54°

In ΔXYZ, we have, ∠LZJ + ∠KYJ + ∠KXL = 180° based on the sum of the interior angles of a triangle postulate

∴ ∠LZJ = 180° - (∠KYJ + ∠KXL) = 180° - (54° + 62°) = 64°

∠LZJ = 64°

The segment [tex]\overline {ZK}[/tex] bisects ∠LZJ to form ∠PZL and ∠PZJ

Therefore, ∠PZL = ∠PZJ

∠LZJ = ∠PZL + ∠PZJ = 2 × ∠PZL = 64°

∠PZL = 64°/2 = 32° = ∠PZJ

In ΔZPX, we have;

∠PZL + ∠LXP + ∠ZPX = 180° based on the sum of the interior angles of a triangle postulate

∠ZPX = 180° - (∠PZL + ∠LXP) = 180° - (32° + 31°) = 63°

∠ZPX = 63°

The measure of ∠ZPX = 63°
