Solution Steps

Solution Approach

a. The closing price on July 6 is directly given as $276.95.

b. To determine if the closing price was up or down from the previous trading day, we compare the given closing price with the change in price. The change is given as an increase of $0.53, which is a 0.19% increase.

c. To find the closing price on the previous trading day, subtract the change in price ($0.53) from the closing price on July 6 ($276.95).

Step 1: Closing Price on July 6

The closing price of a share of stock on July 6 is given as \[ 276.95. \]

Step 2: Price Change

The closing price increased by \[ 0.53, \] indicating that the price was up from the previous trading day.

Step 3: Closing Price on Previous Trading Day
