A) The average market price is (12 + 8 + 10 + 13 + 14 + 8) / 6 = $10.83
b)
The total amount spent was: 12*8 + 8*12 + 10*10 + 13*7 + 14*7 + 8*12 =
$577. The total number of shares was: 8 + 12 + 10 + 7 + 7 + 12 = 56.
Therefore the average price per share was $577 / 56 shares =
$10.30/share.
c) Since the cost per share in June was $12, and her average cost was $10.30, dollar-cost averaging worked in her favor since her average cost was lower.
<span>A trend line shows the general pattern of the data, but does not try to connect all the data points is the correct choice about trend lines. It usually is the most general direction of the points.</span>
In general, the average rate of change of f (x) on the interval a, b is given by f(b) – f(a) / b – a. The average rate of alteration of a function, f (x) on an interval is well-defined to be the variance of the function values at the endpoints of the interim divided by the difference in the x values at the endpoints of the interval. this is also known as the difference quotient that tells how on average, the y values of a function are changing in connection to variations in the x values. A positive or negative rate of change is applicable which match up to an increase or decrease in the y value among the two data points. It is called zero rate of change when a quantity does not change over time.
The square root of 169=13 so it is rational
Take the natural log of both sides
ln(2^x)=ln(.125)
Xln(2)=ln(.125)
X=ln(.125)/ln(2)
X=-3
ALTERNATIVE ROUTE:
You know that 0.125 is equal to 1/8
And 1/2^3 is also equal to 1/8
So since you need the reciprocal to match it the exponent is a negative
