Steve invested money in the stock market. In the first year, his stock increased 50%. He paid his stockbroker $350 and then lost $400. He withdrew $300, and then his remaining investment doubled. Steve's investment is now worth $8100. How much was Steve's original investment?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Original amount invested = $3400 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original investment of Steve = $x

Stock increased in the first year = 50% of amount invested

Therefore total amount after one year = x + 0.5x = 1.5x

Commission paid to the stock broker = $350

Amount lost by him = $400

Amount withdrawn by him = $300

Total amount decreased from the amount after 1 year

= 1.5x - (350 + 400 + 300)

= 1.5x - 1050

This remaining amount is doubled, so the final amount

= 2(1.5x - 1050)

= 3x - 2100

This final amount is equal to $8100

3x - 2100 = 8100

3x = 8100 + 2100

3x = 10200

x = $3400

Therefore original amount invested in the stock market was $3400 .

Simon and his niece marcie are comparing their ages to see if there is a mathematical connection. They find that Simon is three years more than four times marcie' age. The sum of their ages is 58. Let m be marcie's age. Could marcie be seven years old? Write an expression for Simon's age in terms of the variable m. Write and equation that models the information given Now solve for m? What is marcie's age? What is Simon's age?

Answers

Answer:

The expression for Simon's age in terms of the variable m would indicate that Simon's age is equal to four times Marcie's age plus 3:

s=4m+3 (1)

Also, you know that the sum of their ages is 58, which is:

s+m=58 (2)

You can replace (1) in (2) and solve for m to find Marcie's age:

4m+3+m=58

5m=58-3

5m=55

m=55/5

m=11

Finally, you can replace m in (1) to find Simon's age:

s=4(11)+3

s=44+3

s=47

According to this, Marcie is 11 years old and Simon is 47 years old.

Answers

Given:

The population of continent of South America in 2010 is 395, 280, 204.

To find:

The closest estimate of this number.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]Population = 395, 280, 204[/tex]

The approximate value of this number is

[tex]Population \approx 400, 000, 000[/tex]

The scientific form of this value is

[tex]Population = 4\times 10^8[/tex]

Therefore, the correct option is C.

Remember the original midpoint formula is LaTeX: \left(\frac{x_1+\:x_2}{2},\:\:\frac{y_{1\:}+y_2}{2}\right)\:=\:\left(x_m,\:y_m\right)

Answers

Answer:

[tex](x_2,y_2) = (2x_m - x_1 ,2y_m - y_1 )[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]\left(\frac{x_1+\:x_2}{2},\:\:\frac{y_{1\:}+y_2}{2}\right)\:=\:\left(x_m,\:y_m\right)[/tex]

Required

Determine x2, y2

Start by splitting the expression

[tex]x_m = \left(\frac{x_1+\:x_2}{2})[/tex] and [tex]y_m = (\frac{y_{1\:}+y_2}{2})[/tex]

Solving for x2 in [tex]x_m = \left(\frac{x_1+\:x_2}{2})[/tex]

Multiply through by 2

[tex]2 * x_m = \frac{x_1 + x_2}{2} * 2[/tex]

[tex]2x_m = x_1 + x_2[/tex]

Make x2 the subject;

[tex]x_2 = 2x_m - x_1[/tex]

Similarly:

[tex]y_m = (\frac{y_{1\:}+y_2}{2})[/tex]

Multiply through by 2

[tex]2 * y_m = \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2} * 2[/tex]

[tex]2y_m = y_1 + y_2[/tex]

Make y2 the subject;

[tex]y_2 = 2y_m - y_1[/tex]

Hence:

[tex](x_2,y_2) = (2x_m - x_1 ,2y_m - y_1 )[/tex]
