Question

Jabari owns 100 shares of Stock A and 45 shares of Stock B. For the past month, his stocks have been fluctuating inversely each week. Stock A decreased by m cents per share and Stock B increased by n cents per share. Which equation can be used to find the total change in value of Jabari's shares?

Answer 1

This is how we solved and make the equation.
Stock A = 100
Stock B = 45

For the past months, his stocks inversely decreased.
Stock A = m cents / share
Stock B = n cents * share

So the equation is
= 100 (0.01m) + 45 (0.01n)
= m + 0.45n
