Answer:
The portfolio beta is [tex]\alpha = 1.354[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The first investment is [tex]i_1 = \$ 25,000[/tex]
The first beta is [tex]k = 0.8[/tex]
The second investment is [tex]i_2 = \$ 40,000[/tex]
The second beta is [tex]w = 1.7[/tex]
Generally the portfolio beta is mathematically represented as
[tex]\alpha = \frac{ i_1 * k + i_2 * w }{ i_1 + i_2}[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]\alpha = \frac{ (25000 * 0.8) + ( 40000* 1.7 ) }{40000 + 25000}[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 1.354[/tex]
A quality control manager is concerned about variability of the net weight of his company’s individual yogurt cups. To check the consistency, he takes a random sample of sixteen 6-ounce yogurt cups and finds the mean of the sampled weights to be 5.85 ounces and the sample standard deviation to be 0.2 ounce.
Requried:
a. Test the hypotheses H0: µ ≥ 6 Ha: µ < 6 at the 5% level of significance. Assume the population of yogurt-cup net weights is approximately normally distributed.
b. Based on the results of the test, will the manager be satisfied that the company is not under-filling its cups?
c. State the decision rule, the test statistic, and the manager’s decision.
Answer:
a) We reject H₀
b) The manager won´t be satisfied with nominal filling its cup
c) See step-by-step explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal distribution n < 30, therefore, we should use t - student table
Sample size n = 16
degree of freedom = df = n - 1 df = 15
Sample mean μ = 5,85 ou
Sample standard deviation is s = 0,2 ou
Hypothesis test
Null hypothesis H₀ μ >= μ₀
Alternative hypothesis Hₐ μ < μ₀
CI = 95 % then α = 5 % α = 0,05 α/2 = 0,025
Then in t-student table we find t(c) = 1,753
To calculate t(s)
t(s) = ( μ - μ₀ ) s/√n
t(s) = ( 5,85 - 6 ) / 0,2/√16
t(s) = - 0,15* 4 / 0,2
t(s) = - 3
To compare t(s) and t(c)
|t(s)| > |t(c)| 3 > 1,753
Then t(s) is in the rejection region. We should reject H₀. Data indicate that at 95 % of CI μ seems to be smaller than 6 ou
b) The manager won´t be satisfied with nominal filling its cup
A certain game involves tossing 3 fair coins, and it pays .14 for 3 heads, .06 for 2 heads, and .01 for 1 head. The expected winnings are?
Answer:
Total expected amount = $0.04375
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to calculate probability of getting heads on every combination of coin tosses
HHH = 1/8 = 3 heads
HHT = 1/8 = 2 heads
HTH = 1/8 = 2 heads
HTT = 1/8 = 1 head
THH = 1/8 = 2 heads
THT = 1/8 = 1 head
TTH = 1/8 = 1 head
TTT = 1/8 = 0 head
So the probability of 3 heads is 1/8 and the amount is (1/8)* 0.14 = $0.0175
Probability of 2 heads is 3/8 and the amount is (3/8) * 0.06 = $0.0225
Probability of 1 head is 3/8 and amount is (3/8) * 0.01 = $0.00375
Total expected amount = 0.00375 + 0.0225 + 0.0175
Total expected amount = $0.04375
Joey’s pizza sells large cheese pizzas for $12.00. Each additional topping costs $0.50. Basketball Boosters bought 12 large pizzas, each with 3 toppings. There are 8 slices per pizza. How much does it cost per slice? Round to the nearest cent.
Answer:
So first you do $0.50 x 3 = 1.5
then you add that to $12.00
$12.00 + 1.5 = 13.5
13.5 is the cost of one pizza.
Since they bought 12:
The total cost of the 12 pizza is $162 <== not important
13.5 divided by 8 is 1.687
round 1.56875 to the nearest cent 1.7 = $2
so each slice costs $2

Answer:
Charlie: 5 + xDanny: x - 8Eric: x × 3Combine like terms. What is a simpler form of each expression? 4c-4d+8c-3d
Answer:
12c-7d
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]4c-4d+8c-3d=0\\4c+8c=3d+4d\\12c=7d\\12c-7d[/tex]
===============================================
Explanation:
The terms 4c and 8c are one pair of like terms that combine to 4c+8c = 12c. We add 4 and 8 to get 12, then tack a 'c' at the end
The other pair of like terms are -4d and -3d. They combine to -7d for similar reasoning.
12c and -7d are not like terms, so we can't combine them and we stop here.
-----------
One way to think of combining like terms is consider simplifying 2c+3c. You could say that 2c represents having 2 cups while 3c is having 3 cups. Writing 2c+3c means we start with 2 cups and add on 3 more getting a total of 2+3 = 5 cups. Symbolically we would then write 5c. Therefore 2c+3c = 5c.
A publishing company claims that in fall 2019, the average price of college textbooks for a single semester is $385. Suppose you decide to collect data from a random sample of students to assess whether the publisher's claim is reasonable, and you find that in a random sample of 22 college students, the mean price of textbooks for the fall 2019 semester was $433.50 with a standard deviation of $86.92. At the 0.01 significance level, is there sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean price of college textbooks for a single semester is different from the value claimed by the publisher?
Answer:
We accept H₀ . We don´t have enough evidence to express the publisher claim is not true
Step by Step explanation:
We must evaluate if the mean of the price of college textbooks is different from the value claimed by the publisher
n < 30 then we must use t - distrbution
degree of freedom n - 1 df = 22 - 1 df = 21
As the question mentions " different " that means, a two-tail test
At 0,01 significance level α = 0,01 α/2 = 0,005
and t(c) = 2,831
Test Hypothesis
Null Hypothesis H₀ μ = μ₀
Alternative hypothesis Hₐ μ ≠ μ₀
To calculate t(s)
t(s) = ( μ - μ₀ ) /σ/√n
t(s) = ( 433,50 - 385 ) / 86,92 / √22
t(s) = 2,6171
Comparing t(c) and t(s)
t(s) < t(c)
Then t(s) is in the acceptance region we accept H₀. We don´t have enough evidence to claim that mean price differs from publisher claim

What is the volume of a square pyramid whose length of one side of its base is 9cm and whose height is 15cm. Show your work
Answer:
The answer is 405cm³Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of a pyramid is given by
[tex]V = \frac{1}{3} \times area \: of \: base \: \: \times height[/tex]
height = 15cm
From the question the pyramid is a square pyramid which means it's base is a square
Area of a square = l²
where l is the length of one side
l = 9cm
Area of square = 9² = 81cm²
So the volume of the pyramid is
[tex]V = \frac{1}{3} \times 81 \times 15[/tex]
[tex]V = 27 \times 15[/tex]
We have the final answer as
V = 405 cm³
Therefore the volume of the pyramid is

Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer box to complete your choice.
O A. The vectors v and w are not orthogonal because their dot product is ___
O B. The vectors v and w are orthogonal because their dot product is ___
Answer:
B. The vectors v and w are orthogonal because their dot product is 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
v= - i - j
w= - i + j
Therefore;
vw = ( - i - j ) ( - i + j )
Taking each set of integer of the vector into consideration:
vw = ( -1 × - 1) ( -1 × 1)
vw = 1 - 1
vw = 0
Hence, we can conclude that :
The vectors v and w are orthogonal because their dot product is 0

If the weight (in grams) of cereal in a box of Lucky Charms is N(470,5), what is the probability that the box will contain less than the advertised weight of 453 g?
Answer:
The probability that the box will contain less than the advertised weight of 453 g is 0.00034.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X represent the weight (in grams) of cereal in a box of Lucky Charms.
It is provided that X follows a Normal distribution with parameters, μ = 470 and σ = 5.
Compute the probability that the box will contain less than the advertised weight of 453 g as follows:
[tex]P(X<453)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{453-470}{5})[/tex]
[tex]=P(Z<-3.4)\\=0.00034[/tex]
*Use the z-table.
Thus, the probability that the box will contain less than the advertised weight of 453 g is 0.00034.

Comment on the shape of the frequency distribution. It is not symmetric. It is fairly symmetric, with most of the values between 24 and 43. It is not very symmetric, but most of the values lie between 24 and 43.
Answer:
It is not symmetric, but skewed left. Data appears more to be on the left side.
Step-by-step explanation:
The smallest value is 24 and the largest is 43 . The difference between these two values is 19 which can be divided into into intervals of 4.
19/4= 4.75 It will be rounded to 5.
The class interval can of 5. Starting from 20 we get class intervals and frequency distribution as
Class Intervals Data Frequency

The class intervals are inclusive of both upper and lower limits. The difference between the lower limits of two consecutive classes or upper limits of two consecutive classes must be the same.
As we see the difference here is that of 5 between the two upper or lower limits of consecutive classes.
The histogram is attached which shows the class intervals along x- axis and data frequency along y- axis.
What is the equation of the parabola that has its vertex at (8,-1) and a y-intercept of (0,-17)?
y = a(x + 1.5)^2 - 12.5
y intercept is (0,-8) so:-
-8 = a(0+1.5)^2 - 12.5
-8 = 2.25a - 12.5
a = 4.5/ 2.25 = 2
so we have
y = 2 ( x +1.5)^2 - 12.5
solving for x when y = 0:-
(x + 1.5)^2 = 12.5/2 = 6.25
taking sqrt's x + 1.5 = +/- 2.5
x = -4, 1
so the x intercepts are (-4,0) and (1,0)
Answer:
y = –1∕4(x – 8)^2 – 1

Answer:
The probability that a voter chosen at random is in the 18 to 20 years old age range is = 4.2/ 134.8= 0.0311572
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find the probability by simply dividing the frequency of the ages range of 18-20 by the total frequency.
Ages Frequency
18 to 20 4.2
21 to 24 7.8
25 to 34 20.8
35 to 44 23.7
45 to 64 50.1

∑ 134.8
The probability of an event is given by the occurrence of an event by the total occurrences .
So
Here the occurrence of ages 18-20 is given by 4.2
and the total frequency is 134.8
The probability that a voter chosen at random is in the 18 to 20 years old age range is = 4.2/ 134.8= 0.0311572

Answer:
the shorter side = 1526
the longer side = 763
area = 1164338
Step-by-step explanation:
lets say
a=length
b = width
a + 2b = 3052
this is the perimeter
such that
a = 3052 - 2b
the area of a rectangle is a*b
= (3052 - 2b)b
= 3052b - 2b²
we differentiate this to get:
= 3052 - 4b
such that
3052 = 4b
divide through by 4, to get b, the width
3052/4 = 763
b = 763
put the value of b into a
a = 3052 - 2b
a = 3052 - 2(763)
a = 3052 - 1526
a = 1526
therefore
the shorter side = 1526
the longer side = 763
area = a x b
area = 1526 x 763
area = 1526 x 763
= 1164338

Suppose that you borrow $1000.00 from a friend and promise to pay back $1390.00 in 2 years. What simple interest rate will you pay?
The simple interest rate is % (Round to the nearest tenth as needed.)
Answer:
19.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the formula I = prt, where I is the interest money, p is the starting amount of money, r is the interest rate, and t is the time that the money was borrowed.
Plug in the values and solve for r:
390 = (1000)(r)(2)
390 = 2000r
0.195 = r
r = 19.5%
Answer:
19.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
Simple Interest = Principal x Time x Rate in % / 100
SI = 1000 x 2 x a / 100
=> SI = 10 x 2 x a
=> SI = 20a
Total Amount = SI + Principal
=> 1390 = 20a + 1000
=> 1390 - 1000 = 20a +1000 - 1000
=> 390 = 20a
=> 390/20 = 20a/20
=> 19.5 = a
Let's recheck
=> 1000 x 2 x 19.5 /100
=> 10 x 2 x 19.5
=> 195 x 2
=> 390
1390 = 390 + 1000
=> 1390 = 1390
So, the interest rate is 19.5 %
