Roberta’s brokerage account contains 10 stocks. she has held five of those stocks for over two years, and she purchased the other five stocks in the last six months. all the stocks have risen in value, so she decides to sell one to purchase a car. to receive the best tax treatment for the sale, which stock should roberta sell?

a.
long- and short-term gains are taxed the same, so it doesn’t matter which stock she sells.
b.
she should sell one of the stocks that she’s held for over two years because long-term gains receive preferential tax treatment.
c.
she should sell stocks from each group because long-term gains can be used to offset short-term gains.
d.
it doesn’t matter because preferential tax rates apply only to stocks held for over three years.

answer: (-8,4) are the coordinates of a

step-by-step explanation:

let the side of square abcd is x .

thus the area of square abcd is .

now, by the diagram area of triangle ead= 1/2 × ea × ad = 1/2 × ea × x

( because ad is the side of square)

and, according to the question,

the areas of square abcd and right ead are equal.

⇒

⇒ea=2x

thus, ea: ab=2: 1

therefore, point a divides line segment eb into the ratio 2: 1.

⇒ by sectional formula coordinates of a are,

=

=

=(-8, 4)

thus the coordinates of a are (-8,4)

arc length = 6.63311 ft.

step-by-step explanation:

the formula the arc measure is:

arc length s=2πr(c)/360

where:

c   is the central angle of the arc in degrees

r   is the radius of the arc

π   is pi, approximately 3.142

using the above formula we get

s =

thus we find that arc length of an arc for a circle of radius 20 feet and central angle 19 degrees is

6.63311 feet

it would be 4 over -2 divided by -1 over 3.

if you want a solution it would be 4

you flip it so it would be 4/-2 divided by 3/-1 then it would be 12/3 and you would simplify it to 4
