Suppose you are asked to find the area of a rectangle that is 2.1-cm wide by 5.6-cm long. Your calculator answer would be 11.76

cm2 . Now suppose you are asked to enter the answer to two significant figures. (Note that if you do not round your answer to two significant figures, your answer will fall outside of the grading tolerance and be graded as incorrect.)

The area of a rectangle whose length is 5.6 cm and the width is 2.1 cm to two significant figures is 12 cm ².

<h2>Further Explanation </h2><h3>Area </h3>
  • Area is a measure of how much space is occupied by a given shape.
  • Area of a substance is determined by the type of shape in question.

For example;

Area of a rectangle is given by; Length multiplied by width

Area of a triangle = 1/2 x base x height

Area of a circle = πr². where r is the radius of a circle,

Area of a square = S², Where s is the side of the square.etc.

Perimeter

  • Perimeter is defined as the distance along a two dimension shape.  Perimeter of different shapes is given by different formulas
  • For example

The perimeter of a rectangle = 2(length+width)

The perimeter of a triangle = a+b+c; where a, b and c are the sides of the triangle. etc.

In this question

The rectangle has a;

Length = 5.6 cm

Width = 2.1 cm

Area of a rectangle = length × width

                               = 2.1 cm × 5.6 cm

                               = 11.76 cm²

The area of the rectangle to two significant figures is 12 cm²

f your risk-aversion coefficient is A = 4 and you believe that the entire 1926–2015 period is representative of future expected
siniylev [52]

Answer:

The portfolio should invest 48.94% in equity while 51.05% in the T-bills.

Explanation:

As the complete question is not given here ,the table of data is missing which is as attached herewith.

From the maximized equation of the utility function it is evident that

Weight=\frac{E_M-r_f}{A\sigma_M^2}

For the equity, here as

  • Weight is percentage of the equity which is to be calculated
  • {E_M-r_f} is the Risk premium whose value as seen from the attached data for the period 1926-2015 is 8.30%
  • A is the risk aversion factor which is given as 4.
  • \sigma_M is the standard deviation of the portfolio which from the data for the period 1926-2015 is 20.59

By substituting values.

Weight=\frac{E_M-r_f}{A\sigma_M^2}\\Weight=\frac{8.30\%}{4(20.59\%)^2}\\Weight=0.4894 =48.94\%

So the weight of equity is 48.94%.

Now the weight of T bills is given as

Weight_{T-Bills}=1-Weight_{equity}\\Weight_{T-Bills}=1-0.4894\\Weight_{T-Bills}=0.5105=51.05\%\\

So  the weight of T-bills is 51.05%.

The portfolio should invest 48.94% in equity while 51.05% in the T-bills.

By newton third law of motion, we know that if a rocket ship pushes down on the ground, the ground will push back up on the rock
Furkat [3]

We don't know that at all. The 3rd law says that the REaction is opposite and EQUAL to the action.  We don't know where that "twice as much" comes from.
