Do bonds reduce the overall risk of an investment portfolio? Let x be a random variable representing annual percent return for t

rjkz [21]

Answer:

COV (all stocks) = 0.55

COV (stocks and bonds) = 0.82

Step-by-step explanation:

Coefficient of Variation is used to measure variability.

It is defined as the ration of standard deviation and the mean.

It can be used to compare variability of two population or two samples.

Formula:

$\text{Coefficient of Variation} = \displaystyle\frac{\text{Standard Deviation}}{\text{Mean}}$

$\text{Standard Deviation} = \sqrt{\displaystyle\frac{\sum (x_i -\bar{x})^2}{n-1}}$

where $x_i$ are data points, $\bar{x}$ is the mean and n is the number of observations.

$Mean = \displaystyle\frac{\text{Sum of all observations}}{\text{Total number of observation}}$

x: 14, 0, 39, 25, 32, 27, 28, 14, 14, 15

$Mean = \frac{208}{10} = 20.8$

$Standard~Deviation = \sqrt{\frac{1169.6}{9} } = 11.39$

$Coefficient~of~Variation = \frac{11.39}{20.8} = 0.55$

y = 6, 2, 29, 17, 26, 17, 17, 2, 3, 5

$Mean = \frac{124}{10} = 12.4$

$Standard~Deviation = \sqrt{\frac{924.4}{9} } = 10.13$

$Coefficient~of~Variation = \frac{10.13}{12.4} = 0.82%$

Since coefficient of variation of x is less compared to y, thus it could be said bonds does not reduce overall risk of an investment portfolio.

I only did the first part but maybe later I will solve the rest too. If there are any errors but tell me so I can update the pic.

irinina [24]

Given the points H(6,7) and I(-7,-6).

If point G lies $\frac{1}{2}$ of the way along line segment HI.

Therefore, we can say that the point G divides the line segment HI in the ratio 1:1.

So, by using the cross section formula we can determine the coordinates of point G.

For the given points say $(x_1, y_1)$ and $(x_2, y_2)$ divided is in the ratio $m_1 : m_2$ , the coordinates are $(\frac{m_1x_2+m_2x_1}{m_1+m_2} , \frac{m_1y_2+m_2y_1}{m_1+m_2} )$

Coordinates G = $(\frac{(1 \times -7)+(1 \times 6)}{2} , \frac{(1 \times -6)+(1 \times 7)}{2})$

= (-0.5 , 0.5)

Hence, the coordinates of G are (-0.5 , 0.5).

So, Santiago argues that point G is located at the origin. The point G is located at (-0.5, 0.5). Therefore, he is not correct.

The measure of an angle is 12° less than twice the measure of its supplement. What is the measure of the angle?

kupik [55]

Here is the equation you should use: x + 2x - 12 = 180
You will be solving for x.

Combine like terms then add twelve to both sides of the equation.

3x = 192

Divide by 3 on both sides of the equation.

x = 64

Now, plug 64 in the equation for x.

2(64) - 12 = 116
