An integer is a whole number.
1) if Isaac is on the 4th floor and goes up 7, that is 4 + 7= 11. So he is on the 11th floor.
2) the integer representing the floor he is starting on is 4 because that is the whole number associated with "4th."
3) the integer representing how many floors he will rise is 7.
4) the elevator will stop at 11.
Hope this helps! :)
A stock portfolio's overall beta is found by multiplying each stock's beta times the percentage of the overall portfolio it makes up and adding these terms together. Since the current portfolio's beta is known, we can treat all the stocks in the portfolio as a single stock for calculating its weight in the new portfolio. Thus, our new portfolio will have a value of $150,000, $100,000, or 2/3, of which has a beta of 1.5 and $50,000, or 1/3, of which has a beta of 3. Then the beta of the new portfolio will be 1.5*(2/3) + 3*(1/3) = 2.
