The price of Stock A at 9 A. M. Was $14.67. Since then, the price has been increasing at the rate of $0.08 each hour. At noon the price of Stock B was $15.17. It begins to decrease at the rate of $0.15 each hour. If the two rates continue, in how many hours will the prices of the two stocks be the same?

Price of Stock A at 12 : 00 A.M. is :

A = 14.67 + 0.08×3

A =  $14.91

Price of Stock B at 12 : 00 A.M. is :

B = $15.17

Let, after x hours price are same :

At, 1 : 13 P.M both stocks have same prices.

Hence, this is the required solution.

the answer is d

step-by-step explanation:

y+3=-4(x-2)

y+3=-4x+8

  -3         -3  

y=-4x+5

step-by-step explanation:

since the sequence is geometric there is a common ratio r between consecutive terms, that is

r = 4 ÷ - 2 = - 2

r = - 8 ÷ 4 = - 2

r = 16 ÷ 8 = - 2

the next term - 13 must be incorrect as it should be - 32 for the sequence to be geometric.

the first 4 terms are therefore geometric with common ratio r = - 2
