Answer: C. The beta coefficient of a stock is normally found by regressing past returns on a stock against past market returns. One could also construct a scatter diagram of returns on the stock versus those on the market, estimate the slope of the line of best fit, and use it as beta. However, this historical beta may differ from the beta that exists in the future.
Explanation:
The beta coefficient is used by an economic entity to measure how volatile an individual stock is when such stock is being compared to the market's systematic risk.
Of the options given in the question, the correct answer is option C which states that "C.

i ant good but my teacher is cool and told my the answer
Answer: $10.00
Explanation:
The individual and the other two are trying to pay an 18% tip so the amount they should tip can be calculated by:
= Check total * 18%
= 57.38 * 18%
= $10.3284
= $10.00 to the nearest dollar
Answer:
The investment in stock H will be $104837.5 while the investment in stock L will be $145162.5
Explanation:
The portfolio return is the weighted average return of the individual stocks that form up the portfolio. The weightage of each stock in the portfolio is the investment in a stock as a proportion of investment in the portfolio.
Let x be the weightage of Stock H.
Weightage of Stock L will be (1-x).
Portfolio return = wH * rH + wL * rL
Plugging in the values,
0.111 = x * 0.129 + (1-x) * 0.098
0.111 = 0.129x + 0.098 - 0.098x
0.111- 0.098 = 0.031x
0.013 / 0.031 = x
x = 0.41935 or 41.935% rounded off to 3 decimal places
(1-x) = 1 - 0.41935 = 0.58065 or 58.065%
Investment in Stock H = 250000 * 41.935% = $104837.5
Investment in Stock L = 250000 * 58.065% = $145162.5
