Answer:

x=4/3, y=11/3. (4/3, 11/3).

Step-by-step explanation:

y=-x+5

5x+2y=14

----------------

5x+2(-x+5)=14

5x-2x+10=14

3x=14-10

3x=4

x=4/3

y=-4/3+5=-4/3+15/3=11/3

A classmate said that AB & DC are complementary and parallel based on the diagram below. Explain your classmate's error. Not

Ugo [173]

Your classmate's error about AB and DC being complimentary and parallel is that they misapplied the alternate angle property.

<h3>Why are AB and DC not parallel?</h3><h3 />

There isn't enough evidence presented in the diagram to say that AB and DC are parallel.

The evidence required would be proof that angle AWZ is equal to angle WZY.

Instead, all we have is that angle AWZ and angle XYC are equal which does not tell us what we need to know about AB and DC being parallel.

uppose that Mary's utility function is U(W) = W0.5, where W is wealth. She has an initial wealth of $100. How much of a risk

Stels [109]

Note that $U(W) = W^{0.5}$

Answer:

Mary's risk premium is $0.9375

Step-by-step explanation:

Mary's utility function, $U(W) = W^{0.5}$

Mary's initial wealth = $100

The gamble has a 50% probability of raising her wealth to $115 and a 50% probability of lowering it to $77

Expected wealth of Mary, $E_w$

$E_{w}$ = (0.5 * $115) + (0.5 * $77)

$E_{w}$ = 57.5 + 38.5

$E_{w}$ = $96

The expected value of Mary's wealth is $96

Calculate the expected utility (EU) of Mary:-

$E_u = [0.5 * U(115)] + [0.5 * U(77)]\\E_u = [0.5 * 115^{0.5}] + [0.5 * 77^{0.5}]\\E_u = 5.36 + 4.39\\E_u = \$ 9.75$

The expected utility of Mary is $9.75

Mary will be willing to pay an amount P as risk premium to avoid taking the risk, where

U(EW - P) is equal to Mary's expected utility from the risky gamble.

U(EW - P) = EU

U(94 - P) = 9.63

Square root (94 - P) = 9.63

If Mary's risk premium is P, the expected utility will be given by the formula:

$E_{u} = U(E_{w} - P)\\E_{u} = U(96 - P)\\E_u = (96 - P)^{0.5}\\(E_u)^2 = 96 - P\\ 9.75^2 = 96 - P\\95.0625 = 96 - P\\P = 96 - 95.0625\\P = 0.9375$

Mary's risk premium is $0.9375
