Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
An option to buy a stock is priced at $150. If the stock closes above 30 next Thursday, the option will be worth $1000. If it closes below 20, the option will be worth nothing, and if it closes between 20 and 30, the option will be worth $200. A trader thinks there is a 50% chance that the stock will close in the 20-30 range, a 20% chance that it will close above 30, and a 30% chance that it will fall below 20.
a) Let X represent the price of the option
<h3><u> x P(X=x)
</u></h3>
$1000 20/100 = 0.2
$200 50/100 = 0.5
$0 30/100 = 0.3
b) Expected option price
Therefore expected gain = $300 - $150 = $150
c) The trader should buy the stock. Since there is an positive expected gain($150) in trading that stock option.
Answer:
6.5 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
From Pythagoras theorem
C^2= a^2 + b^2
Where a, b are the sides of the triangle
C= hypotenus sides of the triangle
two sides are given as 1.6 cm and 6.3cm respectively.
C^2= 1.6^2 + 6.3^2
C^2= 2.56 + 39.69
C^2 = 42.25
C= √42.25
C=6.5 cm
Hence, the length of the hypotenuse is 6.5 cm
Answer:
• subtract eqn(b) from eqn(a);
• find x :

anyway
1.
add them equations, the y's will cancel
x+2y=4
<span>3x-2y=4 +</span>
4x+0y=8
4x=8
divide by 4 both sides
x=2
sub back
x+2y=4
2+2y=4
minus 2
2y=2
divide 2
y=1
x=2
y=1
(x,y)
(2,1) is solution
2.
the solution is where they intersect
multiply 2nd equation by 2 and add to first
4x-14y=6
<span>-4x+14y=-6 +</span>
0x+0y=0
0=0
infinite solutions
that is because they are actually the same line
the solutions are (x,y) such that they satisfy -2x+7y=-3 or 4x-14y=6 (same equaiton)
infinite solutions
3.
multiply first equation by 2 and add to first
4x+2y=-6
<span>1x-2y=-4 +</span>
5x+0y=-10
5x=-10
divide by 5 both sides
x=-2
sub bac
x-2y=-4
-2-2y=-4
add 2
-2y=-2
divide by -2
y=1
x=-2
y=1
(x,y)
(-2,1)
4.
coincident means they are the same line
so
we see that we have to multiply 4 by 2 to get 8
multiply top equation by 2
8x+10y=16
8x+By=C
B=10 and C=16
5.
a. false, either 0, 1, or infinity solutions
change the word 'two' to 'one' or 'zero' or 'infinite', or change 'can' into 'can't'
b.false
'sometimes' to 'always'
c. true
d. false, change 'sometimes' to 'always'

total cost=150
TC=childC+adultC
TC=3c+5a
150=3c+5a
40 tickets, c+a
40=c+a
the equations are
150=3c+5a and
40=c+a
eliminate
multiply 2nd equaton by -3 and ad to first one
150=3c+5a
<span>-120=-3c-3a +</span>
30=0c+2a
30=2a
divide by 2
15=a
sub back
40=c+a
40=c+15
minus 15
25=c
