There are 10,000 mutual fund managers. 22 claim that they are the best, since their fund beat the relevant index every year for

7 years. However, you think that markets are efficient and that the average fund manager is as likely to deliver a better performance than the index as to underperform the index, before fees.
Part 1 | Attempt 1/10 for 10 pts. What is the probability that the average single fund managers beats the index 7 years in a row (before fees)? 4+ decimals
Part 2 | Attempt 1/10 for 10 pts. How many fund managers would you expect to beat the index 7 years in a row if only luck and no skill was involved? No decimals

Answer:

Part A:

Probability that average single manager beat the index= (0.5)^7=0.0078125=0.0078 (4\ decimals)

Part B:

Fund Managers to beat index 7 years=78.125≅78 managers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

Given data:

Since there are equal chances for delivering equal better performance and of under performance so

Probability of better performance =0.5

Required:

Probability that the average single fund managers beats the index 7 years in a row (before fees)=?

Solution:

Since there is 7 year index:

Probability that average single manager beat the index= (0.5)^7=0.0078125=0.0078 (4\ decimals)

Part B:

Given Data:

Number of mutual fund managers=10,000

Probability that average single manager beat the index= 0.0078125 (Calculated in part A)

Required:

How many fund managers would you expect to beat the index 7 years in a row if only luck and no skill was involved?

Solution:

Fund Managers to beat index 7 years=Total number of managers*probability  average single member beat the index

Fund Managers to beat index 7 years=10,000*0.0078125

Fund Managers to beat index 7 years=78.125≅78 managers.

F(x)=x^+4x+2 what is the average rate of change from x=3 to x=5
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=x^+4x+2 First, let's evaluate when x=3, x=4 and x=5.

f(3) = 3²+4(3)+2 = 9 + 12 + 2 = 23

f(4) = 4²+4(4)+2 = 16 + 16 + 2 = 34

f(5) = 5²+4(5)+2 = 25 + 20 + 2 = 47

Now, let's find the rate of change.

34 - 23 = 11

47 - 34 = 13

Finally, the average rate of change.

(11 + 13) / 2 = 12

Chelsey wants to join a fitness club. The fitness club charges an initial membership fee of $55 and a monthly fee of $19.50. She
Kay [80]
So if you have to pay 55 out front and then continue to pay 19.50 monthly the equation will look like this:
19.50*m + 55 = x
(M stands for month)
She has 250 dollars to spend so add that in for x
<span>19.50*m + 55 = 250. 
Use inverse operations.
250-55 and 55-55
19.50*m = 195
195/19.50 and 19.50/19,50
m=10
Your answer is 10</span>
