Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

how long is the ball in the air ?

that is the same as asking : after how many seconds will the ball hit the ground (= reach the height of 0) ?

so, that means we need to find the zero solution of h(t).

at what t is h(t) = 0 ?

when at least one of the factors is 0 :

2(-2 - 4t)(2t - 5)

we have 3 factors

2 : can never be 0.

(-2 -4t) : can only be 0 for negative t, which does not make sense in our scenario (we cannot go back in time, only forward).

(2t - 5) : is 0 when 2t = 5 or t = 2.5

so, A is the right answer.

FYI : the starting height (on the hill) is given by t = 0 :

2(-2 - 0)(0 - 5) = 2×-2×-5 = 20 ft

uppose that Mary's utility function is U(W) = W0.5, where W is wealth. She has an initial wealth of $100. How much of a risk

Stels [109]

Note that $U(W) = W^{0.5}$

Answer:

Mary's risk premium is $0.9375

Step-by-step explanation:

Mary's utility function, $U(W) = W^{0.5}$

Mary's initial wealth = $100

The gamble has a 50% probability of raising her wealth to $115 and a 50% probability of lowering it to $77

Expected wealth of Mary, $E_w$

$E_{w}$ = (0.5 * $115) + (0.5 * $77)

$E_{w}$ = 57.5 + 38.5

$E_{w}$ = $96

The expected value of Mary's wealth is $96

Calculate the expected utility (EU) of Mary:-

$E_u = [0.5 * U(115)] + [0.5 * U(77)]\\E_u = [0.5 * 115^{0.5}] + [0.5 * 77^{0.5}]\\E_u = 5.36 + 4.39\\E_u = \$ 9.75$

The expected utility of Mary is $9.75

Mary will be willing to pay an amount P as risk premium to avoid taking the risk, where

U(EW - P) is equal to Mary's expected utility from the risky gamble.

U(EW - P) = EU

U(94 - P) = 9.63

Square root (94 - P) = 9.63

If Mary's risk premium is P, the expected utility will be given by the formula:

$E_{u} = U(E_{w} - P)\\E_{u} = U(96 - P)\\E_u = (96 - P)^{0.5}\\(E_u)^2 = 96 - P\\ 9.75^2 = 96 - P\\95.0625 = 96 - P\\P = 96 - 95.0625\\P = 0.9375$

Mary's risk premium is $0.9375

Find Arc PR Please help and give explanation

garri49 [273]

Arc PR is 156 degrees. Since both angles are are making the forming arc they should be congruent. You can put (5x+23)=(9x-21) which is x=11.
Then you plug in 11 into your equation; 5(11)+23=78.
Since the vertex is on the outside of the circle then the arc is forms is 2 times the value of the angle.
78(2)=156
