Given the following information:

\begin{tabular}
{|p{1.5cm}|p{1.5cm}|p{1.2cm}|p{1.2cm}|p{1.2cm}|}
\multicolumn{1}{|p{1.5cm}|}{State of economy}\multicolumn{1}{|p{2.6cm}|}{Probability of State of economy}\multicolumn{3}{|p{4.8cm}|}{Rate of Return if State Occurs}\\[1ex] 
\multicolumn{1}{|p{1.5cm}|}{}\multicolumn{1}{|p{2.6cm}|}{}\multicolumn{1}{|c|}{Stock A}&StockB&Stock C\\[2ex]
\multicolumn{1}{|p{1.5cm}|}{Boom}\multicolumn{1}{|p{2.6cm}|}{0.66}\multicolumn{1}{|p{1.27cm}|}{0.09}&0.03&0.34\\
\end{tabular}
\begin{tabular}
{|p{1.5cm}|p{1.5cm}|p{1.2cm}|p{1.2cm}|p{1.2cm}|}
\multicolumn{1}{|p{1.5cm}|}{Bust}\multicolumn{1}{|p{2.6cm}|}{0.34}\multicolumn{1}{|p{1.27cm}|}{0.23}&0.29&-0.14\\
\end{tabular}

Part A:

The expected return on an equally weighted portfolio of these three stocks is given by:

0.66[0.33 (0.09) + 0.33 (0.03) + 0.33(0.34)] \\ +0.34[0.33 (0.23) + 0.33(0.29) +0.33(-0.14)] \\  \\ =0.66(0.0297 + 0.0099 + 0.1122)+0.34(0.0759+0.0957-0.0462) \\  \\ =0.66(0.1518)+0.34(0.1254)=0.1002+0.0426=0.1428=\bold{14.28\%}



Part B:

Value of a portfolio invested 21 percent each in A and B and 58 percent in C is given by

For boom: 0.21(0.09) + 0.21(0.03) + 0.58(0.34) = 0.0189 + 0.0063 + 0.1972 = 0.2224 or 22.24%.

For bust: = 0.21(0.23) + 0.21(0.29) + 0.58(-0.14) = 0.0483 + 0.0609 - 0.0812 = 0.028 or 2.8%

Expected return = 0.66(0.2224) + 0.34(0.028) = 0.1468 + 0.00952 = 0.1563 or 15.63%

The variance is given by

0.66(0.2224-0.1563)^2+0.34(0.028-0.1563)^2 \\  \\ =0.66(0.0661)^2+0.34(-0.1283)^2=0.66(0.00437)+0.34(0.01646) \\  \\ =0.00288+0.0056=\bold{0.00848}

Neil drives at an average speed of 60 miles/hour to reach his destination 480 miles away. On the way back, he decides to increas
daser333 [38]

Answer:

  480/(x+60) ≤ 7

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the relations ...

  time = distance/speed

  distance = speed×time

  speed = distance/time

to write the required inequality any of several ways.

Since the problem is posed in terms of time (7 hours) and an increase in speed (x), we can write the time inequality as ...

  480/(60+x) ≤ 7

Multiplying this by the denominator gives us a distance inequality:

  7(60+x) ≥ 480 . . . . . . at his desired speed, Neil will go no less than 480 miles in 7 hours

Or, we can write an inequality for the increase in speed directly:

  480/7 -60 ≤ x . . . . . . x is at least the difference between the speed of 480 miles in 7 hours and the speed of 60 miles per hour

___

Any of the above inequalities will give the desired value of x.

A machine is designed to fill 16-ounce bottles of shampoo. When the machine is working properly, the amount poured into the bott
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

Between 15.95 ounces and 16.15 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following value m, being the mean, sd, being the standard deviation and n, the sample size:

m = 16.05

sd = 0.1005

n = 4

We apply the formula of this case, which would be:

m + - 2 * sd / (n ^ 1/2)

In this way we create a range, replacing we have:

16.05 + 2 * 0.1005 / (4 ^ 1/2) = 16.1505

16.05 - 2 * 0.1005 / (4 ^ 1/2) = 15.9495

Which means that 95% of all samples are between 15.95 ounces and 16.15 ounces.
