Answer:

D. Interpretation: The zeros are where the daily profit is $0.00

zeros: x = 3.586 and x = 6.414

Explanation:

We have been given the following daily profit function;

$y=-6(x-5)^{2}+12$

where y is the profit (in hundreds of dollars) of a taco food truck

and x the price of a taco (in dollars)

The zeros of this profit function can be obtained by solving for x in the following equation;

$0=-6(x-5)^{2}+12$

These will simply be the x-intercepts of the profit function. That is the points where the profit function crosses or intersects the x-axis.

Therefore, an interpretation of the zeros of this function would be;

The zeros are where the daily profit is $0.00

These zeros can be evaluated graphically. We first obtain the graph of the profit function as shown in the attachment below;

We then determine the x values where the graph crosses the x-axis. These values will represent the zeros of our profit function. From the graph, these points are;

x = 3.586 and x = 6.414

Conventional wisdom says one should measure a manager's investment performance over an entire market cycle. What arguments suppo

White raven [17]

Answer:

In every form of analysis, it is always safer to take a macro or holistic view of the situation. This is true for the investment performance of a manager. One investment decision that went right does not suffice to classify an investment portfolio manager as proficient, neither is one that went south enough to tag him deficient.

The forecasting ability of managers, on the balance of probability, will vary for different cases, with a helicopter view of providing a more accurate measure of their performance.

However, if it was possible to analyse the market for volatility and adjust our forecasts it becomes unnecessary to look at and analyse all the information from a 12-month cycle before coming to terms about the performance of the manager.

Cheers!
