Hich of the following modifications to the list of assets and liabilities below would result in a negative net worth? house valued at $90,000. mortgage owed $78,000. car valued at $11,000. car loan of $5,000. student loan of $13,700. stocks valued at $2,500. savings of $3,000. a. net worth is already negative. b. house value decreasing to $83,000. c. borrowing $10,000 more in student loans. d. selling off all owned stocks.

house =90000

 car =11000

stocks = 2500

savings = 3000

add those together = 90000 + 11000 + 2500 + 3000=104250

mortgage = 78000

car loan = 5000

student loan = 13700

 add those: 78000 + 5000+ 13700 = 96700

104250-96700 =7550

 any change of more than 7550 would result in a negative net worth

 so borrowing 10000 for a student loan would do it.

C is the correct answer

the formula of a slope:

from a table we have

substitute:

the slope of f(x) is -1.

the graph of funcfion g(x) is a horizontal line. the slope of a horizontal line is equal 0. therefore the slope of g(x) is 0.

-1 < 0

example 2 – simplify: step 1: completely factor both the numerators and denominators of all fractions. step 2: change the division sign to a multiplication sign and flip (or reciprocate) the fraction after the division sign; essential you need to multiply by the reciprocal. step 3 : cancel or reduce the fractions.
