1: A man owns 50 shares of stock worth $30 each. The corporation declared a dividend of 6% payable in stock. How many shares did he then own?

Answers

Answer:

53 shares

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation for how many SHARES did he then own

Using this formula

Numbers of shares=[ (Dividend percentage payable in stock ×Shares of stock)+Shares of stock]

Let plug in the formula

Numbers of shares= [(.06 x 50 shares)+50 shares]

Numbers of shares= 3 + 50 shares

Numbers of shares = 53 shares

Therefore How many shares did he then own is 53 shares

One week, Ethan earned $391.00 at his job when he worked for 23 hours. If he is paid the same hourly wage, how many hours would he have to work the next week to earn $102.00?

Answers

Answer:

6 hrs.

Step-by-step explanation:

So 391.00 can just be converted to 391 because they mean the same thing, so since we have $391 for 23 hrs, we can divde those, which gives us 17, this answer would show that Ethan earns $17 a hour, so if we divide how much he earns by the hour by how much money he could earn by next week ( 102/17), that would give us 6, Therefore, Ethan would need to work 6 hours for $102.00

The perimeter of the polygon is 12 in. What is the length of side x?

Answers

Answer:

2in

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are not given the type of polygon, let the polygon be an hexagon. An hexagon is a 6 sides shape. The perimeter of the shape will be the sum of all the sides of the polygon

Perimeter of the polygon = 6L

Length is the length of the side

Given

Perimeter of the polygon = 12in

Substitute and get L

P = 6L

12 = 6L

L = 12/6

L = 2in

Hence the length of side x of the polygon is 2in

Solve the equation for a.

K = 4a + 9ab

a = K(4 + 9b)
a = 4(K + 9b)
a = a equals StartFraction 4 plus 9 b Over K EndFraction equals h.
a = a equals StartFraction K Over 4 plus 9 b EndFraction equals h.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]a= \frac{k}{9b+4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, you would solve for "a".

Solve:

K = 4a + 9ab

Since we have our "a" on the same side, we can factor it out from the variables:

K = a(9b + 4)

To get "a" by itself, we would have to divide both sides by 9b + 4:

K/9b+ 4 = a

Your answer would be K/9b+ 4 = a

It would look like this: [tex]a= \frac{k}{9b+4}[/tex]

Answer:

it's a = K / 4 + 9b

What is the solutions of the following system of equations.

y = -2x + 2

y = x - 1

Answers

Answer:

x = 1, y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = - 2x + 2 → (1)

y = x - 1 → (2)

Substitute y = x - 1 into (1)

x - 1 = - 2x + 2 ( add 2x to both sides )

3x - 1 = 2 ( add 1 to both sides )

3x = 3 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 1

Substitute x = 1 into either of the 2 equations for corresponding value of y

Substituting into (2)

y = 1 - 1 = 0

Solution is (1, 0 )

Answers

Answer:

"13 plus half of 6 divided by 2, then add 6"

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to select the statement that describes this expression :

[tex]13+\dfrac{1}{2}\times (\dfrac{6}{2}+6)[/tex]

Here 13 is added to half of 6  divided by 2 and then add 6.

Hence, this is the correct answer "13 plus half of 6 divided by 2, then add 6).

A wall 15 m long, 30 cm wide and 4 m high is made of bricks, each measuring
22 cm x 12.5 cm x 7.5 cm . If 1/12 of the total volume of the wall consists of mortar, how many
12
bricks are there in the wall​

Answers

l = 15m = 1500cm
b= 30cm
h= 4m= 400cm



So, total volume of the wall= l×b×h
= 1500×30×400= 1,80,00,000 cm^3


Now, volume of one brick= 22×12.5×7.5= 2062.5 cm^3


Volume of wall containing only bricks= total volume of the wall - volume of wall containing mortar
= 1,80,00,000 - (1,80,00,000 × 1/12)
= 1,65,00,000 cm^3


So, no. of bricks = volume of wall containing bricks ÷ volume of one brick
= 1,65,00,000 ÷ 2062.5
= 8000 bricks.

10/18 + 12/18 = 22/18.

Since there is not 22/18 listed, you can use this fraction as a proportion. The only proportion that can be evident is answer A, as when you multiply 22/18 by 3, you get 66/54.
