From the picture above, if A + B = 8 (horizontally) and A + C = 13. Using other information that can be deducted from the picture, what is the value for A, B, C and D?
A + B = 8 (eqn i) C - D = 6 (eqn ii) A + C = 13 (eqn iii) B + D = 8 (eqn iv)
From eqn i: B = 8 - A (eqn v)
From eqn iii: A = 13 - C (eqn vi)
Put eqn vi into eqn v: B = 8 - 13 + C B = -5 + C B = C - 5 (eqn vii)
From eqn ii: C = 6 + D (eqn viii)
Put eqn viii into eqn vii: B = 6 + D - 5 B = 6 - 5 + D B = 1 + D (eqn ix)
From eqn iv: D = 8 - B (eqn x)
Put eqn x into ix: B = 1 + 8 - B B + B = 1 + 8 2B = 9 B = 9 ÷ 2 B = 4.5

From eqn viii: C = 6 + 3.5 C = 9.5
From eqn vi: A = 13 - 9.5 A = 3.5
Answer: A = 3.5, B = 4.5, C = 9.5, D = 3.5

Bitcoin mining is the process of adding new transactions to the Bitcoin blockchain. It’s a tough job. People who choose to mine Bitcoin use a process called proof of work, deploying computers in a race to solve mathematical puzzles that verify transactions.To entice miners to keep racing to solve the puzzles and support the overall system, the Bitcoin code rewards miners with new Bitcoins. “This is how new coins are created” and new transactions are added to the blockchain, says Okoro.
Telegram hopes to raise $1bn with a convertible bond private placement
The super secure UAE-based Telegram messenger service, developed by Russian-born software icon Pavel Durov, is looking to raise $1bn through a bond placement to a limited number of investors from Russia, Europe, Asia and the Middle East, the Kommersant daily reported citing unnamed sources on February 18, 2021.The issue reportedly comprises exchange bonds that could be converted into equity in the messaging service that is currently 100% owned by Durov and his brother Nikolai.Kommersant reports that the price of the conversion would be at a 10% discount to a potential IPO should it happen within five years.The minimum bond placement is said to be set at $50mn, but could be lowered to $10mn. Five-year bonds could carry an annual coupon of 7-8%.
