A portfolio has average return of 13.2 percent and standard deviation of returns of 18.9 percent. Assuming that the portfolioi's returns are normally distributed, what is the probability that the portfolio's return in any given year is between -43.5 percent and 32.1 percent? A. 0.950
B. 0.835
C. 0.815
D. 0.970

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

B. 0.835

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the z-scores and the standard normal distribution to calculate this probability.

We have a normal distribution for the portfolio return, with mean 13.2 and standard deviation 18.9.

We have to calculate the probability that the portfolio's return in any given year is between -43.5 and 32.1.

Then, the z-scores for X=-43.5 and 32.1 are:

z_1=(X_1-\mu)/(\sigma)=((-43.5)-13.2)/(18.9)=(-56.7)/(18.9)=-3\n\n\nz_2=(X_2-\mu)/(\sigma)=(32.1-13.2)/(18.9)=(18.9)/(18.9)=1\n\n\n

Then, the probability that the portfolio's return in any given year is between -43.5 and 32.1 is:

P(-43.5<X<32.1)=P(z<1)-P(z<-3)\n\nP(-43.5<X<32.1)=0.841-0.001=0.840

Three students were given the expression shown and were asked to take a common factor out of two of the terms. Use the drop-down menus to complete the statements about whether each student's answer is an equivalent expression. Then choose an expression that is equivalent.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: 4 - 9x +21

Factorizing this expression, we have;

              4 -3(3x - 7)

i. Chang's expression: 4 - 3(3x + 7)

This is not an equivalent expression, because by expansion of the bracket, the expression gives: 4 -9x -21

ii. Benjamin's expression: 4 + 3(3x + 7)

This is not an equivalent expression, because by expansion of the bracket, the expression gives: 4 +9x +21

iii. Habib's expression: 4 + 12x

This is not an equivalent expression, because the expression is not related to the given question

Comparing the three student's answers with the appropriate expression, none of the student's is an equivalent expression.

This expression that is  equivalent to the given question is;

            4 -3(3x - 7) = 4 -9x + 21

Which statements are true for triangle LNM? Check all that apply.

Answers

Answer:

The correct options are 1, 2 and 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a triangle, the side which does not make an angle is called opposite side of that angle.

From the given graph it is clear that

Opposite side of ∠L is NM.

Option 1 is correct.

Opposite side of ∠M is NL.

Opposite side of ∠N is ML.

Option 2 is correct.

The side next to an angle is called adjacent side.

Adjacent sides of ∠L is LM and LN.

Adjacent sides of ∠M is LM and MN.

Adjacent sides of ∠N is LN and MN.

In a right angled triangle, the opposite sides of a right angle is called hypotenuse.

Angle M is a right angled, so the side NM is hypotenuse. Option 4 is correct.

Therefore the correct options are 1, 2 and 4.
1 2 and 4 are correct. the others arent
