Question

The stock price of Company A decreased by $1.27 every day for 4

days. The fifth day, the stock price increased by $3.47. What was
the total change in the stock's price over 5 days?

Answer 1

Explanation:

The stock price of Company A decreased by $1.27 for 4 days, so the total decrease in the stock's price would be $1.27 * 4 = $5.08.

On the fifth day, the stock price increased by $3.47, so the total change in the stock's price over 5 days would be $3.47 - $5.08 = -$1.61.

So the total change in the stock's price over 5 days was a decrease of $1.61.
