Regne sold the shares of ExxonMobil shown in the above trade and his broker charged him 1.5% commission How much money did the broker receive?

Lisa sold the shares of Chevron indicated above through her discount broker, who charges $28 per transaction. How much did Lisa receive from the above after the broker took his fee.

Answer:

Trades of Stock in Hewlett-Packard (HPQ) ExxonMobil (XOM) and Chevron CTX)

a. Shares of Hewlett-Packard sold = 6,000 (6K)

b. The total value of all the HP shares sold is $63,780.

c. Total cost of Joan's investment is $64,417.80.

d. Regne's broker received a commission of $3,677.40.

e. Lisa received $760,022.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Hewlett-Packard (HPQ) ExxonMobil (XOM) Chevron CTX)

HPQ 6K10.63 ∨0.23 XOM 3K81.72 ∧ 0.08 CVX 9K84.45 ∨0.22

b) The total value of all the HP shares sold is 6,000 * $10.63

= $63,780

c) Joan's investment:

Investment = $63,780

Broker's commission = 1% = $637.80

Total cost of Joan's investment = $64,417.80 ($63,780 + $637.80)

d) Regne Broker's Commission:

Investment = $245,160 (3,000 * $81.72)

Commission = $3,677.40 ($245,160 * 1.5%)

e) Lisa received from Chevron's stock sale:

Investment = 9,000 * $84.45 = $760,050

Broker's fee = $28

Lisa's receipt = $760,022 ($760,050 - $28)

Find the point (x,y) of x2+14xy+49y2=100 that is closest to the origin and lies in the first quadrant.

Gala2k [10]

Notice that

$x^2+14xy+49y^2=(x+7y)^2$

so the constraint is a set of two lines,

$(x+7y)^2=100\implies\begin{cases}x+7y=10\\x+7y=10\end{cases}$

and only the first line passes through the first quadrant.

The distance between any point $(x,y)$ in the plane is $\sqrt{x^2+y^2}$ , but we know that $\sqrt{f(x,y)}$ and $f(x,y)$ share the same critical points, so we need only worry about minimizing $x^2+y^2$ . The Lagrangian for this problem is then

$L(x,y,\lambda)=x^2+y^2+\lambda(x+7y-10)$

with partial derivatives (set equal to 0)

$L_x=2x+\lambda=0$

$L_y=2y+7\lambda=0$

$L_\lambda=x+7y-10=0$

We have

$L_y-7L_x=2y-14x=0\implies y=7x$

which tells us that

$x+7y-10=0\iff x+49x=10\implies x=\dfrac15\implies y=\dfrac75$

so that $\left(\dfrac15,\dfrac75\right)$ is a critical point. The Hessian for the target function $x^2+y^2$ is

$H(x,y)=\begin{bmatrix}2&0\\0&2\end{bmatrix}$

which is positive definite for all $x,y$ , so the critical point is the site of a minimum. The minimum distance itself (which we don't seem to care about for this problem, but we might as well state it) is $\sqrt{\left(\dfrac15\right)^2+\left(\dfrac75\right)^2}=2$ .

Illusion [34]

Answer:

Option d. PQ = YZ

Step-by-step explanation:

The question in English is

Choose the most appropriate answer. The PQR triangle and the XYZ triangle are two congruent triangles. The angle P = the angle Y and PR = YX. Side pairs of the same length are ... a. PQ = XZ b. QR = YZ c. QR = XY d. PQ = YZ

we know that

If two triangles are congruent, then its corresponding sides and its corresponding angles are congruent

Corresponding sides are named using pairs of letters in the same position on either side of the congruence statement

we have that

$m\angle P=m\angle Y$
