Why is active voice generally preferable for business messages?

hram777 [196]

Active voice gives the idea that actions are being undertaken and that things will be able to be completed. The passive voice gives the appearance that the tasks are not of high importance and that they'll only be completed if the time allows or if the person is interested in completing them. Active voice allows for the belief that the task is important and the result will be high-priority to the listener(s).

You are considering investing $1,000 in a complete portfolio. The complete portfolio is composed of Treasury bills that pay 5% a

astra-53 [7]

Answer:

amount to be investment in risky portfolio = $405

amount invest in security x = $243

amount invested in security Y = $162

Explanation:

given data

investing = $1,000

Treasury bills = 5%

optimal weights of X = 60 %

optimal weights of Y = 40 %

expected rate of return x = 14%

expected rate of return y = 10%

solution

we know that

weight return return from risky port

X 60 % 14 % 8.4 %

Y 40 % 10 % 4%

total 12.4 %

so here

return from risky portfolio is = 12.4 %

and

return from risk free investment = 5 %

so 'we consider here investment in risky portfolio = x

so investment in risk free = 1 - x

so we can say that

12.4 % × x + 5 % × (1-x) = 8 %

solve we get

x = 0.405

so investment in risky portfolio = 0.405

so investment in risk free =0.595

and

amount to be investment in risky portfolio = $1000 × 0.405

amount to be investment in risky portfolio = $405

and

amount invest in security x = $405 × 60%

amount invest in security x = $243

and

amount invested in security Y = $405 × 60%

amount invested in security Y = $162

Larry is a hard-working college freshman. One Saturday, he decides to work nonstop until he has answered 200 practice problems f

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

The marginal gain from Larry's second hour of work is 60 problems

The marginal gain from Larry's fourth hour of work is 20 problems

The best combination is 1 hour of working problems + 3 hours of reading

Explanation:

To get the marginal gain we subtract from the latest hour, in this case the second hour (140), the production from the previous hour (80). 140-80=60. It's always the same, the latest minus the previous one.

So let's do the same for the fourth hour:

Noon................200 problems

minus

11:00 AM..........180 problems

200-180= 20 problems

Now to know how many hours he should spend working on problems and reading, let's compare:

An hour of reading equals to 70 problems made; (because working on 70 problems raises a student’s exam score by about the same amount as reading the textbook for 1 hour).

hours of working problems problems solved

0............................................................0

1.............................................................80

2............................................................140

3............................................................180

hours reading problems equivalent to hours read

4...............................................(4*70)=280

3...............................................(3*70)=210

2...............................................(2*70)=140

1................................................(1*70)=70

finally let's add up the two combinations (0 and 4, 1 and 3, 2 and 2, 3 and 1)

0 and 4_______________0+280= 280

1 and 3________________80+210=290

2 and 2_______________140+140=280

3 and 1________________180+70=250

And the best combination is 1 hour of working problems + 3 hours of reading=290
