Between 1896—when the Dow Jones index was created— and 2012, the index rose in 65% of the years. Based on this information, and

assuming a binomial distribution, what do you think is the probability that the stock market will rise a) next year? b) the year after next? c) in four of the next five years? d) in none of the next five years? e) For this situation (modeling Dow Jones index), what assumption of the binomial distribution might not be valid? Are the years independent?

Answer:

a) P(x) = 0.67

b)  P(y) = 0.67

c) P(x=4) = 0.3325

d) P( x = 0 ) = 0.0039

e) The fact that the rise and fall of the stock market relies on market sentiments violates independence used in Binomial distribution and the years are independent

Step-by-step explanation:

A) The probability that the stock market will rise next year = P(x) = 0.67

assuming next year to be X

B) Probability that the stock market will rise the year after next year

= P(y) = 0.67 and this is because the probability is independent of that of the previous years

C) Probability that the stock market will rise in four of the next five years

= P(x=4) = 0.3325

D) probability that the stock market will rise in none of the next five years

= P( x = 0 ) = 0.0039

E) The fact that the rise and fall of the stock market relies on market sentiments violates independence used in Binomial distribution and the years are independent

ANOTHER BIG QUESTION, 100 POINTS
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

Slope of AB = 3

line p:  y = 3x - 10

see attached for graph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given vertices:

  • A = (1, 1)
  • B = (2, 4)
  • C = (4, 2)

<u>Slope of AB</u>

\textsf{let}\:(x_1,y_1)=(1,1)

\textsf{let}\:(x_2,y_2)=(2,4)

\implies \textsf{slope of AB}\:(m)=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\dfrac{4-1}{2-1}=3

<u>Equation of line p</u>

Use point C (4, 2) and the slope of AB in the point-slope form of a linear equation, then simplify to slope-intercept form:

\begin{aligned}y-y_1 &=m(x-x_1)\\\implies y-2 &=3(x-4)\\y &=3x-10\\\end{aligned}

Sketch the graph of the given function. The state the functions domain and range<br>f(x)=-2{1/4}^x​
Karolina [17]

Answer:

Domain: -∞ < x < ∞

Range: f(x) < 0

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=-2(\frac{1}{4})^x

We need to sketch the graph and identify domain and range of the function f(x).

The graph is attached in the figure below.

Domain:

The domain of the function is all the values of x that gives the real values for f(x).

So, in our case all values of x gives real values for f(x). So domain is:

-∞ < x < ∞

Range:

The range of the function is the resulting f(x) values when we put all the values of x.

In our case the value of f(x) will always be less than zero because of the negative sign.

Range is:

f(x) < 0
