Fincher, inc., has a total debt ratio of .82. what is its debt–equity ratio? (do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e. g., 32.16.) debt–equity ratio times what is its equity multiplier? (do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e. g., 32.16.) equity multiplier times

(a) Debt ratio = 0.82

Debt/ Assets = 0.82

Debt/(Debt + Equity) = 0.82

Debt = 0.82Debt + 0.82 Equity

0.18Debt = 0.82 Equity

Equity = 0.18Debt/0.82

Debt/Equity = Debt/(0.18Debt/0.82) = 4.5556

Debt/Equity = 0.82/0.18 =4.5556

Debt-Equity ratio = 4.56 times

(b) Equity Multiple = 1 + Debt-equity ratio

Equity multiplier = 1+4.56 = 5.56

Equity multiplier = 5.56 times

bd = 9 cm

step-by-step explanation:

in a 30°-60°-90° triangle, the ratio of side lengths is 1 : √3 : 2. that is, the longest side (hypotenuse) is twice the length of the shortest side.

all of the triangles in your geometry are 30°-60°-90° triangles. ac is the hypotenuse of δacd, and the short side of δabc.

the short side ad of δacd will be half the length of ac, so 3 cm. the hypotenuse ab of δabc will be twice the length of ac, so 12 cm. segment bd is the difference of the lengths ab and ad, so is

bd = ab -ad

bd = 12 cm - 3 cm = 9 cm

comment on side length ratios

you can figure the ratios of side lengths in a 30°-60°-90° triangle by considering the trig ratios of the angles. or you can figure the length of the altitude of an equilateral triangle of side length 2 using the pythagorean theorem.
