Sara invested a total of $1,014 by purchasing shares of two types of stock, stock A and stock B. she purchased 52 shares of stock A and 65 shares of stock B. if the combined cost for one share of stock A and one share of stock B is $17.18 find the cost per share of stock B

Respuesta :

Answer: I think the answer might be 9.28.

Step-by-step explanation:

I was also confused with this question so I might be wrong.

Using the information provided above I was able to conclude that two possible equations you can form is A+B=17.18, where there is only 1 stock from company A and 1 stock from company B. The other equation is 52A+65B=1,014 since this is the total amount she spend on the stocks.

You can use Desmos to graph both of the equations or solve it by hand. If solving it by hand chose which method you wanna use wether it is elimination or substitution. (I would explain the process, but I am lazy)

ANYWAYS HOPED THIS HELPED :)
