Answer:

$-748.38

Step-by-step explanation:

Net proceeds = Total cost of selling the stock - Total cost of purchasing the stock

Total cost of purchasing the stock = $7000 + ($7000 x 0.015) = $7105

Answer:

1131 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, we will find weight of 18 tires by multiplying 18 by 3,300 as:

$\text{Weight of tires of the fully loaded semi-truck}=18\times 3,300$
