  (1)  $150 million

  (2)  $276.14

Step-by-step explanation:

(1) The ratio 5 : 2 : 6 to shareholders : bonuses : development tells us that the fraction of profits to shareholders is ...

  5/(5+2+6) = 5/13

The dollar amount to shareholders is then ...

  (5/13)($390 million) = $150 million

__

(2) We have ...

  $285.25 = (1 +3.3%) × (May price)

  May price = $285.25/1.033 = $276.14

x = 2

step-by-step explanation:

if sr parallel to ba then the sides bc and ac are in proportion, that is

= ← substitute values

= ( cross- multiply )

27x = 6(4x + 1)

27x = 24x + 6 ( subtract 24x from both sides )

3x = 6 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 2
