Answer:

The variance of the profile is 0.2179.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

\sigma_A = 0.5\\\sigma_B = 0.6\\\rho_{A,B} = 0.5\\w_A = 70\% = 0.7\\w_B = 30\% = 0.3

Variance of portfolio is given by:

w_A^2\sigma_A^2 +w_B^2\sigma_B^2 + 2w_Aw_BCov_{A,B}

Cov_{A,B} = \rho_{A,B} \times \sigma_A \times \sigma_B \\=0.5\times 0.5 \times 0.6\\=0.15

Putting values, we get,

w_A^2\sigma_A^2 +w_B^2\sigma_B^2 + 2w_Aw_BCov_{A,B}\\=(0.7)^2(0.5)^2 + (.3)^2(0.6)^2 + 2(0.7)(0.3)(0.15)\\=0.2179

Thus, the variance of the profile is 0.2179.

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

-1 \le y \le 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be y = \sin x, the range of the function corresponds to the set of values of y. The sine function is a bounded function between -1 and 1. Hence, the range of the function is:

-1 \le y \le 1
