Global Gas International offers to contract the Halidurton Heavy Construction Corporation to build an oil pipeline from Canada t

o New Orleans that will provide Halidurton ​$600 million in income. The probability that the oil pipeline will​ leak, causing environmental damage is theta. If​ so, the legal liability will be ​$1 comma 200 million. If Halidurton is risk neutral and liable for the damages from a​ leak, what is the theta such that it is indifferent between accepting and rejecting the​ contract?

Answer:

probability that make risk neutral accepting project < \frac{1}{3} or 33.33 %

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

income = $600 million

legal liability = ​$1,200 million

to find out

what is the theta such that it is indifferent between accepting and rejecting the​ contract

solution

we know here that risk neutral between accept and reject contract   θ value will be as that when net present value NPV of contract = 0

so

we can say NPV > 0

so ( 1- θ )  $600 Million + θ ( $1200 Million)  > 0

$600 Million > $1800 θ

θ < \frac{1}{3} = 33.33 %

so probability that make risk neutral accepting project < \frac{1}{3} or 33.33 %

Part A: Eveline rented a car at $180 for 4 days. If she rents the same car for 9 days, she has to pay a total rent of $325. Writ
QveST [7]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

We will use the slope intercept form of the line and then convert later.

Equation

y = mx + b is the general form

Givens

Two data points

(4,180)

(9,325)

Solution

325 = 9x + b

<u>180 = 4x + b</u>                Subtract

145 = 5x                      Divide by 5

145/5 = 5x/5               Do the division

29 = x                          This represents the cost / day

180 = 4x + b                 Substitute x = 29 to find b

180 = 4*29 + b             Combine

180 = 116 + b                Subtract 116 from both sides.

180 - 116 = b

64   = b

Solution for y = mx + b

y = 29x + 64

In Standard form this is

- 29x + y = 64 But the first number must be plus

29x - y = - 64 <<<< Answer A

Part B

y = 29x + 64

f(x) = 29x + 64

Part C

The graph is shown below. Various points are filled in using y = 29x + 64. The y intercept is (0,64) which is labeled. Let x = 1 , 2, 3, 4, ... 10 (which is arbitrary). This may be more easily done on a spreadsheet if you know how to use one to make graphs.

Marshall left home biking at a constant rate of 20 mph. One hour later, it looked like it may rain, so his friend, Brett, set ou
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

First, we need to find how far ahead Marshall was.  Since he had been biking at 20 mph for one hour, he had gone 20 miles.

Next, we need to find how long it will take Brett to catch up to Marshall.  In order to do this, we need to find how much faster Brett is going than Marshall.  We do this by subtracting Marshall's speed from Brett's speed.

60 - 20 = 40.  So, Brett is catching up to Marshall at 40 mph.  Now, we figure out how long it will take for someone going 40 miles per hour to go 20 miles.  We find this by dividing 40 miles per hour by 20.  This is equal to 1/2 hour.  So, it will take Brett 0.5 hours to catch up to Marshall.  This is the same as A, so A is the correct answer.

We can check our answer by seeing how far Marshall and Brett will have gone.  Marshall will have been biking for 1.5 hours, so we multiply 20 * 1.5 = 30.  Marshall went 30 miles.

Brett drove for .5 hours at 60 mph, so he went 30 miles.  Since Brett and Marshall went the same distance, our answer is correct.
