Why is investing in the stock market riskier than saving cash or bond investments? Describe one way to mitigate, or lessen, that

risk.

If the company performs badly, or there's a perception it does so, then the stock's value will go down and you'll lose money. The only way to earn money from stocks is if the company is able to be innovative and survive the competition. The worst case scenario is that you lose all your money if the company goes bankrupt.

To reduce the risk, you should diversify your investments so that you invest in multiple companies along multiple sectors of the economy. This spreads out the risk so that if one company fails, then its unlikely they all fail (assuming there isn't some catastrophic event in the market). Alternatively, you can invest with mutual funds or index funds to let other people/entities invest your money with a range of diverse companies.

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

\left\begin{array}{ccc}A\left( \boxed{3}  , \boxed{8} \right)&B\left( \boxed{9}  , \boxed{6} \right )\\\\C\left( \boxed{1}  ,  \boxed{4} \right)&D\left( \boxed{7}  ,  \boxed{2} \right )\end{array}\right

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates are:

\left\begin{array}{ccc}A\left( \boxed{3}  , \boxed{8} \right)&B\left( \boxed{9}  , \boxed{6} \right )\\\\C\left( \boxed{1}  ,  \boxed{4} \right)&D\left( \boxed{7}  ,  \boxed{2} \right )\end{array}\right

The parallelogram is attached below.

To verify if these coordinates form a parallelogram, we show that:

  • AB=CD; and
  • AC=BD

Using Distance Formula

AB = \sqrt{(6-8)^2+(9-3)^2} = \sqrt{(-2)^2+(6)^2} = \sqrt{40} $ units

CD = \sqrt{(2-4)^2+(7-1)^2} = \sqrt{(-2)^2+(6)^2} = \sqrt{40} $ units

AC = \sqrt{(8-4)^2+(3-1)^2} = \sqrt{(4)^2+(2)^2} = \sqrt{20} $ units

BD = \sqrt{(6-2)^2+(9-7)^2} = \sqrt{(4)^2+(2)^2} = \sqrt{20} $ units

Since AB=CD; and AC=BD, the coordinates A, B, C, and D form the vertex of a parallelogram.

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer: After 7 years the number of birds of species A and B are same. and the number of birds during that year will be 140.


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Sharon is conducting research on two species of birds at a bird sanctuary.

The number of birds of species A is represented by the equation below,where S represents the number of birds, x years after beginning her research.

S=2^x+12

The number of birds of species B is represented by the equation below,where S represents the number of birds, x years after beginning her research.

S=15x+35

To plot the above function, first find points by which they are passing.

For species A, At x=0 , S=1+12=13

At x=2 , S=2+12=14

Similarly find more points and plot curve on graph.

For species A, At x=0 , S=0+35=35

At x=2 , S=15+35=50

Plot a line with the help of these two points.

Now, from the graph the intersection of curve (for A) and line (for B) is at (7,140) which tells that After 7 years the number of birds of species A and B are same. and the number of birds during that year will be 140.

Explain how you can use absolute value to tell whether
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

Let the integers are p and q.

In case both integers are positive or negative, you add the numbers up and apply their sign to the sum.

<u>Examples:</u>

  • 10 + 88 = 98
  • -20 + (-15) = -35

In case one of the integers is negative and one positive.

  • p < 0, q > 0

Use absolute value in this case.

Subtract the numbers and apply the sign of the number with the greater absolute value.

<u>Examples:</u>

  • - 10 + 15 = |15 - 10| = |5| = 5
  • - 15 + 10 = - |15 - 10| = - |5| = -5

AVprozaik [17]

We have been given that Clare made $160 babysitting last summer. She put the money in a savings account that pays 3% interest per year. If Clare doesn't touch the money in her account, she can find the amount she'll have the next year by multiplying her current amount 1.03.

We are asked to write an expression for the amount of money Clare would have after 30 years if she never withdraws money from her account.

We will use exponential growth function to solve our given problem.

An exponential growth function is in form y=a(1+r)^x, where

y = Final value,

a = Initial value,

r = Growth rate in decimal form,

x = Time.

3\%=\frac{3}{100}=0.03

We can see that initial value is $160. Upon substituting our given values in above formula, we will get:

y=160(1+0.03)^x

y=160(1.03)^x

To find amount of money in Clare's account after 30 years, we need to substitute x=30 in our equation.

y=160(1.03)^{30}

Therefore, the expression 160(1.03)^{30} represents the amount of money that Clare would have after 30 years.
