An investment strategy has an expected return of 15 percent and a standard deviation of 9 percent. Assume investment returns are
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

68% of an investment earning a return between 6 percent and 24 percent.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.

99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean = 15

Standard deviation = 9

How likely is it to earn a return between 6 percent and 24 percent?

6 = 15 - 1*9

6 is one standard deviation below the mean

24 = 15 + 1*9

24 is one standard deviation above the mean

By the empirical rule, there is a 68% of an investment earning a return between 6 percent and 24 percent.

Plz answer the following No scams,links or random amswers or ill report​
zvonat [6]

Answer:

f(2) = 12

f(x) = 7, x = -3, 1

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>a)</u>

plug in x as 2

f(x) = 2^2 + 2(2) + 4

f(x) = 4 + 4 + 4

f(x) = 12

<u>b)</u>

replace f(x) with 7

7 = x^2 + 2x + 4

x^2 + 2x - 3 (move 7 to other side)

Factor

ac: -3x^2

b: 2x

split b into 3x, -x

(x^2 -x) + (3x - 3)

    ↓             ↓

  x(x-1)  +  3(x-1)

Factor: (x-1)(x+3) = 0

Solve using Zero Product Property:

x - 1 = 0, x + 3 = 0

x = 1, x = -3
