Answer:

a)0.7

b) 10.03

c)  0.0801

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate of return   Probability

9.5                           0.1

9.8                           0.2

10                             0.3

10.2                          0.3

10.6                          0.1

a.

P(Rate of return is at least 10%)=P(R=10)+P(R=10.2)+P(R=10.6)

P(Rate of return is at least 10%)=0.3+0.3+0.1

P(Rate of return is at least 10%)=0.7

b)

Expected rate of return=E(x)=sum(x*p(x))

Rate of return(x)   Probability(p(x))    x*p(x)

9.5                           0.1                       0.95

9.8                           0.2                      1.96

10                             0.3                        3

10.2                          0.3                        3.06

10.6                          0.1                       1.06

Expected rate of return=E(x)=sum(x*p(x))

Expected rate of return=0.95+1.96+3+3.06+1.06=10.03

c)

variance of the rate of return=V(x)=sum(x^2p(x))-[sum(x*p(x))]^2

Rate of return(x)   Probability(p(x))    x*p(x)    x²*p(x)

9.5                           0.1                       0.95       9.025

9.8                           0.2                      1.96         19.208

10                             0.3                       3             30

10.2                          0.3                       3.06        31.212

10.6                          0.1                       1.06         11.236

sum[x²*p(x)]=9.025+19.208+30+31.212+11.236=100.681

variance of the rate of return=V(x)=sum(x²*p(x))-[sum(x*p(x))]²

variance of the rate of return=V(x)=100.681-(10.03)²

variance of the rate of return=V(x)=100.681-100.6009

variance of the rate of return=V(x)=0.0801

Jonas builds a snow fort. He tells his friends it is 0.8 meters tall inside, but he rounded the height to the nearest tenth. Whi
Lelu [443]

Answer:

0.77

Step-by-step explanation:

If you had to round to the nearest tenth, 0.89 would round to 0.9. 0.74 would round down to 0.7. 0.85 would also round up to 0.9, which leaves the last answer, 9.77 to be rounded to 0.8. Hope this helps

For every 24meals Momoka prepared for customers last night, she prepared 2 meals for employees. Momoka prepared 156 meals.
Olenka [21]

Answer:

144 meals for customers and 12 meals for employees.

Step-by-step explanation:

156/24=6.5

6 x 24 =144

156-144=12

It adds up to be simple numbers, if it didn't it would make sense. For example, she wouldn't serve 6 and a <u>half</u> people. She would serve either 6 people or 7 people. She wouldn't serve 11.3973043 meals. She would serve either 11 meals or 12 meals.

Which numbers are 4 units from -2 on the number line
Artemon [7]

Let the number be x


Then the absolute value of the number from -2 should be 4


|x--2|=4


|x+2|=4


So either



(x+2)=4


x=4-2=2


Or


-(x+2)=4


x+2=-4



x=-4-2



x=-6



[tex] <B>The numbers are 2 and -6</B> [/tex[


They are four units away from -2 on the number line
