As a portfolio manager you are allowed to invest in two different ats: A and B, with annualised volatilities 10% and 20% respect

ively. Here, volatility means the standard deviation of the asset ssume that A and B asset returns are independent. What is the smallest portfolio volatility that can be achieved by investing only in these two assets? Select the closest answer. Pick one of the choices 09.3% 10% 8.9% 15%

Answer:

correct option is B.  10%

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

assets A annualised volatility = 10%

assets B annualised volatility = 20%

solution

we both A and B assets are 10% and 20% respectively

and we know that to achieve smallest portfolio volatility

we need to invest completely in the asset which has least volatility

and volatility can not be less than the asset having least volatility

so here minimum volatility that can be achieved is  = 10%

so correct option is B.  10%

Diagram shows the composite solid formed by a cuboid and a right prism. Trapezium LMNP is the uniform cross section of the prism
kherson [118]

Answer:

MN = 7 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Well the volume we can separate into pieces

first the ABCDEFGH (? you know this cuboid)

which has a volume of

V = AB\cdot BC\cdot CH\\\\V = 3*6*(3+JY+4)

if you ask where does the 4 come from

it comes from LP = KB = YC and JY + YC =JC

so

V = 18(7+MX)

this is because JY = MX

the other volume is of BCNPKLXY (hope you understand which one)

and the volume is

V = BP*PN*NX\\\\V=8*6*4\\\\V = 192

and the last one is KYXLMJ (the top "triangle")

the volume is

V = \frac{LX*XM}{2}*LK\\\\V = \frac{6*MX}{2}*8\\\\V= 6*4*MX\\\\V=24MX

so now add them up

and has to equal 444

V_T = 18(7+MX)+192+24MX\\\\V_T = 126+18MX+192+24MX\\\\V_T = 318+42MX\\\\444=318+42MX\\\\444-318=42MX\\\\126=42MX\\\\MX = 3

and finally we know that MN = MX + XN = 3+4 = 7

so here is our answer MN = 7 cm

a couple of notes

1.\:\angle LXM = 90\\\\2.\:\angle KYX = 90

3. the units don't matter due to the fact that everything is in cm

4. see the picture below to get a better idea of which prism I am talking of

5. tell me if you have questions :D

Which cylinders have the same volume as the cylinder below? Check all that apply. A cylinder with height of 32 meters and diamet
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

10054.4m^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Height= 32m

Diameter= 20m

Radius= 10m

The expression for the volume of a cylinder is given as

V= πr^2h

Substitute

V= 3.142*10^2*32

V= 3.142*100*32m^3

Hence the volume is 10054.4m^3

ASAP HELP HIGH POINTS <br> find the value of x.
Westkost [7]

Answer:

x ≈ 4.2 (nearest tenth)

Step-by-step explanation:

The chord of length 4 is the base of an isosceles triangle with height of 3.7 and sides equal to the radius (x).

An isosceles triangle comprises two right triangles, each with:

  • base = 2 units
  • height = 3.7 units
  • hypotenuse = x units

Therefore, to find x use Pythagoras' Theorem:  a² + b² = c²

(where a and b are the legs, and c is the hypotenuse, of a right triangle)

⇒ a² + b² = c²

⇒ 2² + 3.7² = x²

⇒ x² = 17.69

⇒ x = √(17.69)

⇒ x = 4.2 (nearest tenth)
