Answer: Verizon is less expensive than the S&P 500 on both a P/E and dividend yield basis.
Step-by-step explanation:
When a <em>Price to Earnings ratio is relatively high</em> this means that the <em>Price of the security is high </em>because investors believe the company has good prospects.
When a Dividend Yield is relatively low, this means that the dividends being declared are quite lower than the price because Dividend yield is dividends as a percentage of security price. <em>Lower Dividend Yields therefore mean high security prices</em>.
Looking at the Verizon Chart and the S&P 500 you see that Verizon P/E ratio is 11.71 while S&P is 19.01.
This means that the price of Verizon's is less than S&P 500.
Also notice that Verizon's Dividend yield is 4.09% while S&P 500's is 1.91% again signifying that Verizon is cheaper.
I have attached the full question.
Question # 14
Given the numbers
10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20
Let 'x' be the number
The condition breakdown:
I am less than 20.
- So the number 'x' must be less than 20 i.e. x < 20
I am more than 13.
- So the number 'x' must be greater than 13 i.e. x > 13
I am less than 17.
- So the number 'x' must be less than 17 i.e. x < 17
Finally:
I am 4 more than 12
i.e. 12+4 = 16
Thus, the number is x = 16
Question # 15
Part a)
Given the numbers
10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20
Let 'x' be the number
The condition breakdown:
I am more than 10.
I am less than 20.
I am more than 12.
I am less than 15.
As the numbers left after all the conditions are fulfilled are 13 and 14.
- But the last condition is, of the numbers that left, the number is greater than all the remaining numbers.
So, from the remaining number 13 and 14;
14 > 13
Thus, the number x = 14
Part b)
Drawing the number 14 in the place value:

The answer is a. <span>It represents a linear function because there is a constant rate of change. This can be done the opposite way, but lets use minutes as x and hours as y. Every time y increases by 1, x increases by 60. This means there is a constant rate of change of 1 (rise) over 60 (run). A linear equation must have a constant rate of change.</span>
It equal to 24 because you have to multiply or divide first then you can add or subtract
