Suppose there is a simple index of three stocks, stock ABC, stock XYZ, and stock QRS. Stock ABC opens on day 1 with 8000 shares at $4.25 per share. Stock XYZ opens on day 1 with 5000 shares at $2.90 per share. Stock QRS opens on day 1 with 2000 shares at $6.40 per share. The price of stock ABC on day 8 begins at $3.90. The price of stock XYZ on day 8 begins at $2.50 Stock QRS opens on day 8 with a price of $6.10 per share. Assume that each stock has the same number of shares that it opened with on day 1. What is the rate of change of this simple index over 1 week?

Cone w has a radius of 8 cm and a height of 5 cm. square pyramid x has the same base area and height as cone w. paul and manuel disagree on how the volumes of cone w and square pyramid x are related. examine their arguments. which statement explains whose argument is correct and why? paul manuel the volume of square pyramid x is equal to the volume of cone w. this can be proven by finding the base area and volume of cone w, along with the volume of square pyramid x. the base area of cone w is π(r2) = π(82) = 200.96 cm2. the volume of cone w is one third(area of base)(h) = one third third(200.96)(5) = 334.93 cm3. the volume of square pyramid x is one third(area of base)(h) = one third(200.96)(5) = 334.93 cm3. the volume of square pyramid x is three times the volume of cone w. this can be proven by finding the base area and volume of cone w, along with the volume of square pyramid x. the base area of cone w is π(r2) = π(82) = 200.96 cm2. the volume of cone w is one third(area of base)(h) = one third(200.96)(5) = 334.93 cm3. the volume of square pyramid x is (area of base)(h) = (200.96)(5) = 1,004.8 cm3. paul's argument is correct; manuel used the incorrect formula to find the volume of square pyramid x. paul's argument is correct; manuel used the incorrect base area to find the volume of square pyramid x. manuel's argument is correct; paul used the incorrect formula to find the volume of square pyramid x. manuel's argument is correct; paul used the incorrect base area to find the volume of square pyramid x.
