Answer:

Part 1) The value of y=6

Part 2) ED=36, DB=36 and EB=72

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem we know that

ED=DB -----> equation A

EB=ED+DB -----> equation B

The point D is the midpoint ED

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

step 1

Find the value of y

Substitute the given values in the equation A

$5y+6=y+30$

solve for y

$5y-y=30-6$

$4y=24$

$y=6$

step 2

Find the value of ED,DB and EB

$ED=5y+6$

substitute the value of y

$ED=5(6)+6=36$

Remember that

ED=DB

therefore

$DB=36$

Find the value of EB

EB=ED+DB

$EB=36+36=72$

Leona purchased a $1,000 bond having a quoted price of 99.875. She had to pay a 5.5% brokerage fee (of the selling price). What

Zina [86]

Answer:

The total cost of the bond is none of the given choices.

Step-by-step explanation:

The selling price of a $1000 bond = $99.875

The brokerage fee = 5.5 %

Now, 5.5% of $99.875 = $\frac{5.5}{100} \times 99.875 = 5.493$

So, the brokerage fee = $5.493

Now, to find out the total cost of the bond:

Total Cost = The selling Price + Brokerage Price

= $99.875 + $5.493

= $105.368

or, the total price of the $1000 bond is $ 105.368.

Hence, the total cost of the bond is none of the given choices.

Erin starts with the number 4, adds -3, then subtracts -4. What is the result?

Ksju [112]

Answer:

Erin gets a result number of 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming this is a 'word problem.' -- These are small numbers so you could use your hand for visual. :)

Start with 4 fingers up. (adding a negative to a positive is basically subtraction sooo...) put 3 fingers down. You now have one finger up. (subtracting a negative is just addition, think about taking those two minus signs and putting them together to get an addition sign.) now add 4 fingers to your one finger. You should be left with 5 fingers up!

Hope I helped. Hang in there, it will get easier!

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Therefore, we use the linear depreciation and we get is 17222.22 .

Step-by-step explanation:

From Exercise we have that is boat $250,000.

The straight line depreciation for a boat would be calculated as follows:

Cost boat is $250,000.

For $95,000 Deep Blue plans to sell it after 9 years.

We use the formula and we calculate :

(250000-95000)/9=155000/9=17222.22

Therefore, we use the linear depreciation and we get is 17222.22 .
