A random walk process for a single stock consists of the toss of a fair coin at the end of each day. If the outcome is heads, the stock price increases by 1.25 percent. If the outcome is tails, the stock price decreases by 0.75 percent. What is the drift of such a process

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

+0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation to determine the drift of such a process

Using this formula

Drift=(Increases in stock price*50%)- (Decreases in stock price *50%)

Let plug in the formula

Drift = (0.5)(1.25) + (0.5)(-0.75)

Drift =0.625+ (0.375)

Drift = +0.25%

Therefore the drift of such a process is +0.25

What is the value of x?


x=_____

Answers

Answer:

[tex]{ \tt{x = \sqrt{ {10}^{2} - {8}^{2} } }} \\ { \tt{x = \sqrt{36} }} \\ { \tt{x = 6}}[/tex]

Answer:

X = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a right angled triangle. Thus, pythagoras theorem will be best for its solution.

Hypotenuse squared = height squared + base squared

SH² = H² + B²

10² = x² + 8²

100 = x² + 64

10 – 64 = x² + 64 – 64 (grouped like terms)

36 = x²

Root of both sides

Therefore x = 6

PLS HELP I’m kinda really confused

Answers

Answer:

x = 145°, y = 35°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

m || n

So,

35° = y° [Alternate interior angles]

And,

y° + x° = 180° [Since linear pair]

=> x + 35 = 180

=> x = 180 - 35

=> x = 145°

Hence,

x = 145°, y = 35°

Answer:

x = 145

y = 35

Step-by-step explanation:

35 and y are alternate interior angles and alternate interior angles are equal when the lines are parallel

35 = y

x+y = 180 because x and y form a straight line

x+35 = 180

x = 180-35

x = 145

A person starts walking from home and walks: 6 miles East 6 miles Southeast 3 miles South 5 miles Southwest 2 miles East This person has walked a total of 22Correct miles Find the total displacement vector for this walk: If this person walked straight home, they'd have to walk miles

Answers

Answer:

1) The total displacement vector is ((16 + √2)/2, -(6+11·√2)/2)

2) The number of miles they'd have to walk is approximately 13.856 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The distance, direction, and location of the path of the walk the person takes,  are listed as follows;

Start location, (0, 0)

6 miles East walk to location, (6, 0)

6 miles Southeast to location, (6 + 3·√2, -3·√2)

3 miles South to location, (6 + 3·√2, -3·√2 - 3)

5 miles Southwest to location, (6 + 3·√2 - 2.5·√2, -3·√2 - 3 - 2.5·√2)

2 miles East to location, (6 + 3·√2 - 2.5·√2 + 2, -3·√2 - 3 - 2.5·√2)

(6 + 3·√2 - 2.5·√2 + 2, -3·√2 - 3 - 2.5·√2) = ((16 + √2)/2, -(6+11·√2)/2)

Therefore the destination coordinates is ((16 + √2)/2, -(6+11·√2)/2)

The total displacement vector, [tex]\underset{d}{\rightarrow}[/tex] = ((16 + √2)/2, -(6+11·√2)/2)

d =  (16 + √2)/2)·i - (6+11·√2)/2)·j

2) If the person walked straight home, the number of miles they'd have to walk, [tex]\left | \underset{d}{\rightarrow} \right |[/tex], is given as follows;

[tex]\left | \underset{d}{\rightarrow} \right | = \sqrt{\left(\dfrac{16 +\sqrt{2} }{2} \right)^2 + \left(-\dfrac{6 + 11 \cdot \sqrt{2} }{2} \right)^2 } = \sqrt{134 + 41 \cdot \sqrt{2} }[/tex]

Therefore;

If the person walked straight home, the number of miles they'd have to walk [tex]\left | \underset{d}{\rightarrow} \right | \approx 13.856 \ miles[/tex]

Using the Cosine rule to find AC

AC² = BC² + AB² - (2 × BC × AB × cosB )

      = 18² + 12² - ( 2 × 18 × 12 × cos75° )

      = 324 + 144 - 432cos75°

      = 468 - 111.8

      = 356.2 ( take the square root of both sides )

AC = [tex]\sqrt{356.2}[/tex] ≈ 18.9

-----------------------------------------

Using the Sine rule to find ∠ A

[tex]\frac{18}{sinA}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{18.9}{sin75}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

18.9 sinA = 18 sin75° ( divide both sides by 18.9 )

sinA = [tex]\frac{18sin75}{18.9}[/tex] , then

∠ A = [tex]sin^{-1}[/tex] ( [tex]\frac{18sin75}{18.9}[/tex] ) ≈ 66.9°

It is known that the length of time that people wait for a city bus to arrive is right skewed with mean 6 minutes and standard deviation 4 minutes. A sample of 25 wait times is randomly selected. What is the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample wait times

Answers

Answer:

The standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample wait times is of 0.8 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30. Otherwise, the mean and the standard deviations holds, but the distribution will not be approximately normal.

Standard deviation 4 minutes.

This means that [tex]\sigma = 4[/tex]

A sample of 25 wait times is randomly selected.

This means that [tex]n = 25[/tex]

What is the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample wait times?

[tex]s = \frac{4}{\sqrt{25}} = 0.8[/tex]

The standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample wait times is of 0.8 minutes.
