The last four years of stock returns are as follows: Year 1 is -4% Year 2 is +28% Year 3 is +12% Year 4 is + 4% (a). What is the average annual return?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The Average annual return is:

= 10%.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Year        Stock Returns

Year 1                 -4%

Year 2             +28%

Year 3              +12%

Year 4              + 4%

Total returns = 40%

Average annual returns = 10% (40%/4)

b) The average annual return is computed as the total returns for the four years divided by 4.  It shows that on the average, the return earned per year from the stock investment is 10%, during the four-year period.  It is the mean of the total returns.

If ? A² + b² = 7b and b² + (2b-a) ²= 7², what is (a - b) ²?

Answers

Answer:

7^2+2ab - 4b^2

Step-by-step explanation:

A² + b² = 7b

b² + (2b-a) ²= 7²

FOIL

b^2 +4b^2-4ba+a^2= 7^2

Rewriting

a^2 -2ab + b^2    +4b^2 -2ab = 7^2

Add 2ab and subtract 4b^2 from each side

a^2 -2ab + b^2    +4b^2 - 4b^2 -2ab+2ab = 7^2+2ab - 4b^2

a^2 -2ab + b^2    = 7^2+2ab - 4b^2

(a-b)^2 = 7^2+2ab - 4b^2

                   

11. Find out price elasticity of demand from the following table:
Price per unit()=8,10
Quantity Demanded (Units)=200,150​

Answers

Answer:

Price elasticity of demand = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Old quantity demanded = 200

New quantity demanded = 150

Old price = 8

New price = 10

Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price

percentage change in quantity demanded = change in quantity demand / old demand × 100

= 50/200 × 100

= 0.25 × 100

= 25%

percentage change in price = change in price / old price × 100

= 2/8 × 100

= 0.25 × 100

= 25%

Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price

= 25% / 25%

= 1

Price elasticity of demand = 1

Answer:

  D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The wording "when x is an appropriate value" is irrelevant to this question. That phrase should be ignored. (You may want to report this to your teacher.)

When you look at the answer choices, you see that all of them are negative except the last one (D). When you look at the problem fraction, you see that it is positive.

The only reasonable choice is D.

Your calculator can check this for you.

If you want to "rationalize the denominator", then multiply numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator. The conjugate is formed by switching the sign between terms.

  [tex]\displaystyle\frac{\sqrt{12}}{\sqrt{3}+3}=\frac{\sqrt{12}}{(\sqrt{3}+3)}\cdot\frac{(\sqrt{3}-3)}{(\sqrt{3}-3)}=\frac{\sqrt{36}-3\sqrt{12}}{3-9}\\\\=\frac{6-3\cdot2\sqrt{3}}{-6}=\boxed{-1+\sqrt{3}}[/tex]

_____

Additional comment

We "rationalize the denominator" in this way to take advantage of the relation ...

  (a -b)(a +b) = a² -b²

Using this gets rid of the irrational root in the denominator, hence "rationalizes" the denominator.

We could also have multiplied by (3 -√3)/(3 -√3). This would have made the denominator positive, instead of negative. However, I chose to use (√3 -3) so you could see that all we did was change the sign from (√3 +3).

A survey asked 60 students if they play an instrument and if they are in band.
1.35 students play an instrument.
2. 30 students are in band.
3. 30 students are not in band.
Which table shows these data correctly entered in a two-way frequency table?

Answers

Answer:  Choice A

=======================================================

Explanation:

The table headers will look like choice A or choice C. Notice that we have simple yes or no questions along either the row or column labels; also, the labels are consistent. Choice B can be ruled out because the labels aren't consistent (or don't match up). Choice D is overcomplicated so it can be ruled out also.

We're told that 35 students play an instrument. That means 35 goes at the end of the "plays instrument" row, in the "total" column.

This is enough to see that choice A is the final answer

Furthermore, 30 students are in a band. So we have "30" at the bottom of the "band" column, and in the "total" row. The same applies to the 30 people not in band.

A (I used process of elimination)

B is incorrect it says the total # of people not in a band is 35 but the description says only 30 aren’t in a band

C is incorrect because it says the total # of people that play an instrument is 30 but the description says 35 students play an instrument

D is incorrect because the way the graph is set up doesn’t make sense (ex. How can someone qualify for “not being in band but play an instrument” but also qualify for “in band and play instrument”

where (h, k) is the center, and 'a' and 'b' are the semi-axes in the x- and y-directions respectively.

Here, we have (h, k) = (2, -2), and a=6-2 = 4, b = 0-(-2) = 2. Then the equation is ...

Kasonga's TV plan costs $59.99 per month plus $5.49 per first-run movie. How many first-run movies can he watch if he wants to keep his monthly bill to be a maximum of $100?

Answers

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this problem by making an equation for the monthly bill. First, the cost is $59.99 per month, and that cannot be decreased, so we must add all costs to that amount. Next, it costs $5.49 per first run movie, so for each first run movie, we add $5.49 to the total. Therefore, we can write our equation as

59.99 + 5.49 per first run movie = monthly bill

Representing the number of first run movies as r, we can say

59.99 + 5.49 * r = monthly bill

Next, the monthly bill should be less than or equal to 100, so we can say

monthly bill ≤ 100

59.99 + 5.49 * r = monthly bill ≤ 100

Moreover, we want to maximize r, or the amount of first run movies. Because we add money to the monthly bill for each movie, to maximize r, we have to find the maximum money we can spend on the monthly bill that is still less than or equal to 100. To do this, we set the monthly bill to its maximum limit, or 100, so we have

59.99 + 5.49 * r = 100

subtract 59.99 from both sides to isolate the f and its coefficient

40.01 = 5.49 * r

divide both sides by 5.49 to isolate the variable

r ≈ 7.29

Since we can't buy .29 of a movie, and rounding up to 8 movies would cause us to go past 100 dollars, the maximum movies he can watch if he wants to keep his monthly bill ≤ 100  is 7

A= 100,000m^2

Answer: 100,000 m² or 1 × 10⁵ m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Concept:

Here, we need to know how to calculate the area of a rectangle.

Area = w · l

w = width

l = length

Solve:

Width = 100 m

Length = 1000 m

Area = w · l

Area = (100) (1000)

Area = 100,000 m²
