Answer:

x=5 so x+1 = 6 and x+3 = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

It's all about proportions.    These are similar triangles, so corresponding sides are proportional.  Basically you want to solve an equation \frac{x+1}{x+3} = \frac{3}{4}

Let me know if you cannot see how EG corresponds to GH or how EF corresponds to IH.

Anyway, from here we just solve.  Again, let me know if you have any questions.

4(x + 1) = 3(x + 3)

4x + 4 = 3x + 9

x = 5

And you can check

[tex]\frac{6}{8} = \frac{3}{4}[/tex

You invest $1,000 in a complete portfolio. The complete portfolio is composed of a risky asset with an expected rate of return o
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

The slope of the capital allocation line formed with the risky asset and the risk-free asset is approximately 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

invested = $1000

rate of return = 16%

standard deviation = 20%

rate of return = 6%

to find out

The slope of the capital allocation line

solution

we know here rate of return equation for find  slope of line that is

R1 = R2 + σ × slope of line    .............1

here R is rate of return and and σ is standard deviation

put here all value in equation 1

16 = 6 + 20 × slope of line

20 × slope of line = 10

slope of line = 0.5

so

The slope of the capital allocation line formed with the risky asset and the risk-free asset is approximately 0.5
