Answer:

22.14

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the Pythagorean Theorem:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

21^2 + 7^2 = c^2

441 + 49 = c^2

490 = c^2 (square root both sides so c^2 becomes c)

c = 22.13594363 (round to hundredths)

c = 22.14

George Johnson recently inherited a large sum of money; he wants to use a portion of this money to set up a trust fund for his t
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

a. B+S = 1

0.06B+0.1S \geq 0.075

B \geq 0.3

Objective function:

R=0.06B+0.1S

b) See Attached picture

30% in bonds and 70% in stocks

Step-by-step explanation:

a.

In order to solve the first part of the problem we need to take into account that the problem wants us to determine the percentage that should be allocated to each of the possible investment alternatives. In that case, the sum of the percentages must be equal to 1 (which means that we will have 100 of the trust fund)

so that gives us our first restriction for the problem.

B+S=1

Next, the problem tells us that the projected returns over the life of the investments are 6% for the bond fund and 10% for the stock fund. It also states that he wants to select a mix that will enable him to obtain a total return of at least 7.5%, so we can take this information and get the second restriction from it:

0.06B+0.1S \geq 0.075

Next, the problem tells us that whatever portion of the inheritance he finally decides to commit to the trust fund, he wants to invest at least 30% of that amount in the bond fund, so that's where the last restriction comes from:

B \geq 0.3

now, the idea is to optimize the investment, this is get the greatest amount of money out of the trust fund, so the objective function is:

R=0.06B+0.1S

which represents the return on the investment.

b)

For part b we can start by graphing each of the restrictions:

B+S = 1

This will be a single line, you can draw the line by setting B=0 first so you get:

0+S=1

S=1

So the first point to plot will be (0,1)

next, we can set s=0 to get:

B+0=1

B=1

so the second point to plot will be (1,0)

so you can plot the two points and connect them with a straight line. This is the green line on the uploaded graph.

Next we can graph the second restriction:

0.06B+0.1S \geq 0.075

we can use the same procedure we used for the previous graph, in this case the points would be:

(0 , 0.75) and (1.25, 0)

and again connect the two points with a straight line. Next we need to decide which region of the graph to shade for which we can pick two arbitrary points on each side of the line, for example we can pick:

(0,0) and (2,2) and see which one makes the inequality true:

for (0,0) we get:

0.06B+0.1S \geq 0.075

0.06(0)+0.1(0) \geq 0.075

0 \geq 0.075

Which is false, therefore we need to shade the other region of the graph:

for (2,2) we get:

0.06B+0.1S \geq 0.075

0.06(2)+0.1(2) \geq 0.075

0.32 \geq 0.075

Which is true, so we shade the region of the graph that contains that point. (see red graph)

now we graph the third restriction:

B \geq 0.3

In order to graph this third restriction we just need to draw a vertical line at B=0.3 and shade everything to the right of that line. (Blue graph)

Now, we can analyze the graph, in this case we need to locate the points where the green line crosses the red and the blue line which gives us the following coordinates:

(0.3, 0.7) and (0.625, 0.375)

these two points can be found by setting the first restriction equal to each of the other two restrictions if you are to do it algebraically. If you are using a graphing device, you can directly read them from the graphs.

So once we got those points, we can see which one gives us the greatest percentage of return.

let's test the first point (0.3, 0.7)

R=0.06B+0.1S

R=0.06(0.3)+0.1(0.7)

R=0.088

so this distribution gives us 8.8% in return, let's test the second point:

(0.625, 0.375)

R=0.06B+0.1S

R=0.06(0.625)+0.1(0.375)

R=0.075

so this distribution gives us 7.5% in return.

In this case the best distribution for us is 30% in bonds and 70% in the stock fund to get a return of 8.8%

A deck of cards with four suits; hearts, diamonds, spades, and clubs. you pick one card, put it back and thennpick another card.
Llana [10]

1. First, let us find the probability that the first card is a diamond.

Now, since we are given that there are four suits and there are, assumably, an equal number of cards in each suit, we can say that the probability of choosing a diamond card is 1/4. We can also write this out as such, where D = Diamond:

Pr(D) = no. of diamond cards / total number of cards

There are 52 cards in a deck, and 13 cards of each suit, thus:

Pr(D) = 13/52 = 1/4

2. Now we need to calculate the probability of not choosing a diamond as the second card.

In many cases, when given a problem that requires you to find the probability of something not happening, it may be easier to set it out as such:

Pr(A') = 1 - Pr(A)

ie. Pr(A not happening, or not A) = 1 - Pr(A happening, or A)

This works because the total probability is always 1 (100%), and it makes sense that to find the probability of A not happening, we take the total probability and subtract the probability of A actually happening.

Thus, given that we have already calculated that the probability of choosing a Diamond is 1/4, we can now set this out as such:

Pr(D') = 1 - Pr(D)

Pr(D') = 1 - 1/4

Pr(D') = 3/4

3. Now we come to the final step. To find the probability of something and then something else happening, we must multiply the two probabilities together. Thus, given that Pr(D) = 1/4 and Pr(D') = 3/4, we get:

Pr(D)*Pr(D') = (1/4)*(3/4)

= 3/16

Thus, the probability of choosing a diamond as the first card and then not choosing a diamond as the second card is 3/16.
