Investor Lucas just bought a large amount of stock in Company Y. What may have motivated his behavior? (5 points)

1 answer:

5 0

What must have motivated the behavior of the Investor to commit to such a large stock is; Option C: High Total Earnings

<h3>How to know the value of investing in stocks?</h3>

A) Low real returns; This cannot be his motivation to buy large shares because real return is what is earned on an investment after accounting for taxes and inflation. Thus, the lower, the less encouraging to investors.

B) Higher shares costs; This only means that the share cost is currently high which indicates strength of the company but it does not guarantee that it will scale up at a very fast rate again.

C) High total earnings; Thus would be an encouragement to the investor because the higher the total earning potential of an investment, the more the profitability and the more attractive to others.

Question 4

Elanso [62]

Answer:

a $A = 30 + 0.45 n$

b $A = 90.3$

c 0 customers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Base\ Amount = 30$

$Rate = 0.45$ per customer

Solving (a): Amount (A) on n customers

This is calculated as:

$A = Base\ Amount + Rate * n$

$A = 30 + 0.45 * n$

$A = 30 + 0.45 n$

Solving (b): Amount on 134 customers

In this case: n = 134

So:

$A = 30 + 0.45 * 134$

$A = 30 + 60.3$

$A = 90.3$

Solving (c): Customers at noon.

At noon, the amount is 30.

So:

$A = 30 + 0.45 n$

$30 = 30 + 0.45n$

Collect like terms

$0.45n = 30 - 30$

$0.45n =0$

$n = 0$

Solve for X<br> A) 13<br> B) 5<br> C) 14<br> D) 1

Drupady [299]

Answer:

B) 5

Circle is 360 degr. So (21x+9) +(23x-5) +(26x+6)=360

Combine like terms 70x+10=360

Additive inverse -10 from both sides, 70x= 350

Divide both side by 70 division Property of Equality x=5.

Check your answer by substituting 5 back into original solution!

Assume the average height for American women is 64 inches with a standard deviation of 2 inches. A sorority on campus wonders if

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

a) s = 0.4

b) Z = 2.5

c) 99th percentile.

d) The larger sample size would lead to a smaller margin of error, which would lead to a higher z-score and a increased percentile.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Assume the average height for American women is 64 inches with a standard deviation of 2 inches

This means that $\mu = 64, \sigma = 2$

A) Calculate the standard error for the distribution of means.

Sample of 25 means that $n = 25$ , so $s = \frac{2}{\sqrt{25}} = 0.4$ .

B) Calculate the z statistic for the sorority group.

Sample mean of 65 means that $X = 65$ .

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

By the Central Limit Theorem

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{0.4}$

$Z = \frac{65 - 64}{0.4}$

$Z = 2.5$

C) What is the approximate percentile for this sample? Enter as a whole number.

Z = 2.5 has a p-value of 0.9938, so 0.99*100 = 99th percentile.

D) If the sorority actually had 36 members (still with an average of 65 inches), would you expect the percentile value to increase or decrease? why?

The larger sample size would lead to a smaller margin of error, which would lead to a higher z-score and a increased percentile.

Using the right triangle below. What is the name for side AC ?

irga5000 [103]

Answer:

B) Adjacent

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypotenuse will ALWAYS be designated as the longest side in a right triangle.

Pretend that the angle (the one with the round line) is an eyeball that is looking outwards. The eye is looking out at side BC. That means that line BC is opposite of the angle.

This leaves one side left: the adjacent side. The adjacent side is the side next to the angle. But it is the side that is NOT the hypotenuse.
