Answer:

CoV = 1.671875 rounded off to 1.67

Explanation:

The coefficient of variation (CoV) is a measure of volatility of an investment. It tells the volatility in comparison with the expected return from the investment. We can say that the CoV tells us the risk per unit of return as CoV is calculated by dividing standard deviation, which is a measure of risk, by the expected return of the investment.

CoV = SD / r

Where,

  • SD is the standard deviation
  • r is the expected return

CoV = 0.107 / 0.064

CoV = 1.671875 rounded off to 1.67

scoray [572]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. For the percentage of failures is

= Number of failures ÷ number of pacemakers tested

= 4 ÷ 90

= 4.4%

b. For Number of failures per unit-hour of operating time

= Number of failure ÷ total time - non-operating time

= 4 ÷ (5,000 × 90) - (5,000 ÷ 2 × 4)

= 4 ÷ (450,000 - 10,000)

= 4 ÷ 440,000

= 9.09 × 10^-6

= 0.00000909 failure per unit-hour

c. For Number of  failures per unit-year is

= Failure ÷ unit year

= 0.0000090909 × 24 hours × 365 days

= 0.07963 failure per unit-year

Answer:

B) You will be given antibiotics to reduce bacterial infection, whereas your sister will not.

Explanation:

Since you required pins to be inserted (your skin was injured), the possibility of an infection exists. In order to try to prevent or control any bacterial infection, you need to take antibiotics.

On the other hand, your sister doesn't need to take antibiotics because her skin wasn't hurt.

natta225 [31]

Answer:

$50 billion.

Explanation:

Current Account represents the balance of Trade (Imports & Exports) plus net income and direct payments. Countries strive to maintain their current account surplus which is an indicator that the country is producing and exporting more than its consumption and imports. In this case, it is clearly stated that there are no other factors like income or transfers, so we just have to compare exports and imports. The formula for Current Account in this case is:

                                                Exports - Imports

⇒ 150 - 100 = $50 billion.
