Answer:
Part A: chosen method is by factoring
Part B: First rewrite the equation by writing -24 as a difference so you get x² -9x - 15x + 135 = 0. Then factor out the x and the -15 from the equation so you get x(x-9) - 15(x-9) = 0. Then factor out x-9 from the equation so you have (x-9)(x-15) = 0. Finally, set each expression to 0: x-9=0 and x-15=0 and then solve: x=9 and x=15
Part C: x=9, x=15
It would be 256 because you would do 4 to the power of 4
Answer:
y = 0.80
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
- The expected rate of return for risky portfolio E(r_p) = 0.18
- The T-bill rate is r_f = 0.08
Find:
Investing proportion y of the total investment budget so that the overall portfolio will have an expected rate of return of 16%.
What is the proportion y?
Solution:
- The proportion y is a fraction of expected risky portfolio and the left-over for the T-bill compliance. Usually we see a major proportion is for risky portfolio as follows:
E(r_c) = y*E(r_p) + (1 - y)*r_f
y*E(r_p) + (1 - y)*r_f = 0.16
- Re-arrange for proportion y:
y = ( 0.16 - r_f ) / (E(r_p) - r_f)
- Plug in values:
y = ( 0.16 - 0.08 ) / (0.18 - 0.08)
y = 0.80
- Hence, we see that 80% of the total investment budget becomes a part of risky portfolio returns.
Answer:
12 weeks
Step-by-step explanation:
If John is aiming to save $100, with $6 a week and he has already saved $28. The leftover amount to be saved is $100 - $28 = $72
In one week → $6
2 weeks → $12
3 weeks → $18
and so on..

John will need 12 more weeks to save a total of $100.
Since the area of a square is side squared, you can find the length of each side by finding the square root of the area, which is 5. Since there are four sides in a circle, just multiple 5 by 4 and your answer is 20 units.
