Answer 1

c

Explanation:

Answer 2

C $1,140.38

Explanation:

We are given that Adriana sold 50 shares and that the price per share was $22.98

This means that:

Total value = 50 * 22.98 = $1149

Now, we know that the broker charged 0.75% commission on the total value

This means that:

Broker's charge = 0.75% * 1149 = 0.0075 * 1149 = $8.6175

Therefore,

Adriana's return = Total value - broker's charge

Adriana's return = 1149 – 8.6175 = $1,140.38
