Here, you just want to solve it by finding a common denominator.
1/5+2/7, because she read 1/5 and 2/7 of the book on separate days. The common denominator is 35.
7/35+10/35
=17/35
So that's how much of the book she read before Saturday.
Now it says that on Sunday she read 5/9 of the remaining pages, meaning:
1-17/35 should give us our answer
35/35-17/35=18/35
But since it says she read 5/9 of the remaining pages, we need to multiply 18/35 by 5/9 to get what 5/9ths of 18/35 is.
(18/35)(5/9)=2/7
Therefore she read 2/7ths of the book on Sunday.

If the risk-free rate is 7 percent, the expected return on the market is 10 percent, and the expected return on Security J is 13
Lelu [443]

Answer:

0.02 or 2% = Beta

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Risk-free rate = 7 percent

Expected return on the market = 10 percent

Expected return on Security J = 13 percent

Therefore, the beta of Security J is calculated as follows;

Expected return on Security J = Risk-free rate + Beta (Expected return on the market - Risk-free rate)

13 percent = 7 percent + Beta (10 percent - 7 percent)

0.13 - 0.07 = 0.03 Beta

0.06 = 0.03 Beta

0.06 ÷ 0.03 = Beta

0.02 or 2% = Beta

Suppose that in a certain county 37% of voters are registered as Democrats, 29% as Republicans, 7% as Green party, and the rest
Fantom [35]

Answer:

0.66

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN: Suppose that in a certain county 37\% of voters are registered as Democrats, 29\% as Republicans, 7\% as Green party, and the rest are considered Independents. You conduct a poll by calling registered voters in the county at random.

TO FIND: Probability that the first call will be to either a Democrat or a Republican.

SOLUTION:

Lets total population of county be 100x.

voters registered as Democrats =37\%=\frac{37}{100}\times100x

                                                     =37x

voters registered as Republicans =29\%=\frac{29}{100}\times100x

                                                       =29x

voters registered as Green party =7\%=\frac{7}{100}\times100x

                                                       =7x

Probability that first call will be to Democrats P(A)=\frac{\text{total democrats}}{\text{total voters}}

                                                                                    =\frac{37x}{100x}=0.37

Probability that first call will be to Republican P(B)=\frac{\text{total republicans}}{\text{total voters}}

                                                                                     =\frac{29x}{100x}=0.29

probability that the first call will be to either a Democrat or a Republican

=P(A)+P(B)

=0.37+0.29

=0.66

Hence the probability that the first call will be to either a Democrat or a Republican is 0.66
