Alex

Answer:

The percent of students who take exactly three courses =

31.67%

Explanation:

a) Data and Computations:

# of Courses    Frequency    Relative Frequency    Cumulative Frequency

    1                         22                0.3667                         22

   2                         19                 0.3167                           41

   3                         19                 0.3167                          60

Number of part-time students surveyed = 60

Students who take 1 course = 22/60 * 100 = 36.67%

The cumulative frequency for 1 course is 22 students.

The frequency of student who take 2 courses = 19(41 - 22)

Therefore, the frequency of students taking 3 courses = 19 (60 - 41) and

the relative frequency of students who take 3 course = 19/60 * 100 = 31.67%.

A member firm receives a large block order to buy 100,000 shares of XYZ stock, which is not actively traded. Which customer(s) o
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

Other customers of the firm who place buy orders, if the firm has information barriers in place.

Explanation:

FINRA has strict rules against front running, and this is the process by which interested parties place orders for shares beforehand because they have insider information on how a share is going to perform in the future.

This rule is binding on any registered representative.

However if the firm has information barriers in place, any other customers that places a buy order will be assumed not to have insider knowledge of the share's expected performance. The FINRA rule is not binding on them.
