Answer:

12.87

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know that line CD is a perpendicular bisector, triangle ACD is a right triangle, and thus we can apply the Pythagorean theorem to determine the length of side CD. Since the Pythagorean theorem states that a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where c is the hypotenuse and a and b are the adjacent sides, we can plug in the values of side AD and AC.

As side CD is the bisector of side AB, sides AD and DB are both half the length of side AB, so:
AD = 11/2
AD = 5.5

We now know two values of our equation, and thus we can solve for the missing third value.

5.5^2 + b^2 = 14^2
14^2 - 5.5^2 = b^2
196 - 30.25 = b^2
165.75 = b^2
\sqrt{165.75} = b
b = 12.87

A portfolio is efficient if which of the following is true?
fgiga [73]

Answer:

In economics, a portfolio is a term for a specific set of stocks, bonds, shares, and other securities owned by an investor. In general, the investor seeks to compile and diversify a portfolio of securities that offers maximum profitability and at the same time is diverse, in order to minimize possible risks. In general, these types of portfolios are considered efficient, as they do not leave the investment risk tied to a single factor. However, these two goals often go against each other, so the composition of the portfolio means a certain compromise.
