A financial planner has three portfolios: A, B, and C. Because investors have different tolerances for risks, 20% of people are likely to invest in portfolio A, 30% are likely to invest in B, and 50% are likely to invest in C. Each portfolio has both stocks and bonds, and investors are equally likely to choose either.
This is a tree diagram that represents the probability of investors choosing the different financial products.
What is the probability of an investor choosing only bonds from portfolio B?

Answers

Answer 1

Solution :

P(A) = 0.2

[tex]$P(B)=0.3$[/tex]

[tex]$P(C)=0.5$[/tex]

Each portfolio has both the stocks and the bonds, and the investors are equally likely to choose either of them.

Let Stock = S

      Bond  = b

Therefore, we have:

[tex]$P(S|A) = 0.5$[/tex]

[tex]$P(b|A) = 0.5$[/tex]

[tex]$P(S|B) = 0.5$[/tex]

[tex]$P(b|B) = 0.5$[/tex]

[tex]$P(S|C) = 0.5$[/tex]

[tex]$P(b|C) = 0.5$[/tex]

Therefore,

[tex]$P(b \text{ and } B)= P(b|B) \times P(B)$[/tex]

                    = 0.5 x 0.3

                    = 0.15

A Financial Planner Has Three Portfolios: A, B, And C. Because Investors Have Different Tolerances For
Answer 2

Based on the tree diagram, probability of an investor choosing only bonds from portfolio B is 0.15.

What is probability?

Probability is the chance or likelihood of an event occurring.

Mathematically, probability is given as;

Probability = number of expected outcomes/number of possible outcomes

From the tree diagram:

P(A) = 0.2

P(B) = 0.3

P(C) = 0.5

The investors are equally likely to choose from each portfolio.

Each portfolio has both the stocks and the bonds.

Assuming stock = S and Bond = B.

Then;

P(S|A) = 0.5

P(b|A) = 0.5

P(S|B) = 0.5

P(b|B) = 0.5

P(S|C) = 0.5

P(b|C) = 0.5

[tex]P(b \text{ and } B)= P(b|B) \times P(B)[/tex]

[tex]P(b \text{ and } B)= 0.5 \times 0.3 = 0.15[/tex]

Therefore, the probability of an investor choosing only bonds from portfolio B is 0.15.

What is the area of the regular trapezoid below?
- 6 cm
T
8 cm
10 cm

Answers

Answer:

Area = 64 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area, we have to follow some steps:

=> Step 1: Make the bases similar:

Since we have 2 bases given 6 and 10 we have to come up with a third base by finding their average:

(6 + 10) / 2

(16) / 2

8

So now that we know our base,

=> Our second step is to multiply the base we found by the height of the trapezoid:

Area = common base * height

Area = 8 * 8

Area = 64 cm²

Answer:

5. m<A = 25.3°; m<B = 64.7°

6. m<A = 40.2°; m<B = 49.8°

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall: SOHCAHTOA

5. Reference angle = <A

Opposite = 9

Adjacent = 19

Apply TOA:

Tan A = Opp/Adj

Tan A = 9/19

A = Tan^{-1}(9/19)

A = 25.3461759° ≈ 25.3° (nearest tenth)

Reference angle = <B

Opposite = 19

Adjacent = 9

Apply TOA:

Tan B = Opp/Adj

Tan B = 19/9

B = Tan^{-1}(19/9)

B = 64.6538241° ≈ 64.7° (nearest tenth)

6. Reference angle = A

Opposite = 20

Hypotenuse = 31

Apply SOH:

Sin A = Opp/Hyp

Sin A = 20/31

A = sin^{-1}(20/31)

A = 40.2° (nearest tenth)

Reference angle = B

Adjacent = 20

Hypotenuse = 31

Apply CAH:

Cos B = Adj/Hyp

Cos B = 20/31

B = cos^{-1}(20/31)

B = 49.8° (nearest tenth)

Two containers hold several balls. Once a second, one of the balls is chosen at random and switched to the other container. After a long time has passed, you record the number of balls in each container every second. In 10,000 s, you find 80 times when all the balls were in one container (either one) and the other container was empty.

Required:
a. How many balls are there?
b. What is the most likely number of balls to be found in one of the containers?

Answers

Answer:

(a) 8 balls

(b) 4 balls

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

[tex]N \to[/tex] Number of balls

For a box, the probability that there are N balls in it is:

[tex]Pr = 0.5^N[/tex]

For 2 boxes, it is:

[tex]Pr = 2 * 0.5^N[/tex]

From the question, we have:

[tex]\frac{80}{10000} \to[/tex] Favorable outcome

To solve for N, we have:

[tex]2 * 0.5^N = \frac{80}{10000}[/tex]

[tex]2 * 0.5^N = 0.008[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

[tex]0.5^N = 0.004[/tex]

Take log of both sides

[tex]\log(0.5^N) = \log(0.004)[/tex]

Apply law of logarithm

[tex]N\log(0.5) = \log(0.004)[/tex]

Make N the subject

[tex]N = \frac{\log(0.004)}{\log(0.5)}[/tex]

[tex]N =7.966[/tex]

Approximate

[tex]N = 8[/tex]

Solving (b): Balls in one of the two boxes.

Here, we assume that each ball will have almost the same number of balls at a given instance;

Hence, we have:

[tex]Balls \approx \frac{N}{2}[/tex]

[tex]Balls \approx \frac{8}{2}[/tex]

[tex]Balls \approx 4[/tex]

the rectangle shown has an area of 105 square inches. the width is x+ 16 inches and the length is x. find the dimensions of the rectangle

Answers

Answer:

Length = 5

Width = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

(x)(x + 16) = 105

x^2 + 16x = 105

x^2 + 16x - 105 = 0

(x - 5) x ( x + 21) = 0

x - 10 = 0

x = 5

x + 21 = 0

x = -21

Now that we have the zeroes.

We have to find the most viable one to put in.

Using -21 would not make sense, so we will use 5.

Plug it in:

x = 5

(5) (5 + 16) = 105

5 ( 21) = 105

An orange juice manufacturer advertises a new orange juice product that contains 50% less sugar. This new product is expected to increase profits substantially because they create the 50% less sugar product by replacing 50% of the juice with water while selling it for the same price. An inspector wants to investigate whether the actual percentage of water in the product is within 5% of the intended 50%.

He selects a random sample of 500 containers of orange juice and determined the percentage of each that is water. He plans to conduct a significance test at the a = 0.01 level to see if there is convincing evidence that the proportion of water added is different from 0.50. What is the probability that the inspector makes a Type I error?

Answers

Answer:

0.01

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of making a Type I error is equal to  \alphaα = 0.01, the significance level of the test

The probability of type 1 error will then be equal to the hypothesis level of significance and this will be 0.01.

What is the probability?

Probability refers to a possibility that deals with the occurrence of random events. The probability of all the events occurring need to be 1.

An orange juice manufacturer advertises a new orange juice product that contains 50% less sugar.

An inspector wants to investigate whether the actual percentage of water in the product is within 5% of the intended 50%.

He plans to conduct a significance test at a = 0.01 level to see if there is convincing evidence that the proportion of water added is different from 0.50.

Type I error is referred to as false positives and it means that when a statistically significant difference is validated by the researcher even though the results aren't statistically significant.

Type I error is when one rejects the null hypothesis even though it's true. In this case, the inspector rejects the hypothesis that the proportion of water that is contained in the product is 0.5.

The probability of type 1 error will then be equal to the hypothesis level of significance and this will be 0.01.

(25/4)^3x = 32/3125​

Answers

Answer:

The solution is [tex]x = -\frac{5}{6}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve this question using exponential properties.

We have that:

[tex](\frac{25}{4})^{3x} = \frac{32}{3125}[/tex]

Simplifying:

[tex](\frac{5^2}{2^2})^{3x} = \frac{2^5}{5^5}[/tex]

[tex]([\frac{5}{2}]^{2})^{3x} = (\frac{2}{5})^{5}[/tex]

[tex](\frac{5}{2})^{6x} = (\frac{2}{5})^{5}[/tex]

Changing the numerator and denominator in the right side:

[tex](\frac{5}{2})^{6x} = (\frac{5}{2})^{-5}[/tex]

Since both bases are equal:

[tex]6x = -5[/tex]

[tex]x = -\frac{5}{6}[/tex]

The solution is [tex]x = -\frac{5}{6}[/tex]

Answer:

  160°

Step-by-step explanation:

The path is a triangle with side lengths 796, 1054, and 411 meters. The turn is opposite the short side. The interior angle of the triangle at that point can be computed using the law of cosines. If we label the sides a, b, c, respectively, then ...

  c² = a² + b² - 2ab·cos(C)

  C = arccos((a² +b² -c²)/(2ab)) = arccos(1575611/1677968) ≈ 20.116°

The external angle at the buoy is 180° -20° = 160°.

The jet skier's turn was about 160°.

b. Find the critical value.
c. Compute the test statistic
d. Make the decision.
e. Summarize the results

Answers

Answer:

We reject H₀.  We support that the new average credit card debt is bigger than the previous average

Step-by-step explanation:

Five years earlier

μ   = 8189

σ  =  690

Sample size   n  = 32

Recent year debt

x  =  8776

Sample size   n  = 32

a) Hypothesis Test:

Null Hypothesis                        H₀            x  =  μ   = 8189

Alternative Hypothesis           Hₐ             x >  μ

b) z(c)  Alternative Hypothesis establishes that the test is a one tail-test to the right.

z(c)   for significance level  α = 0.05    is  from z-table      z(c) = 1,64

c) z(s)  =  (  x  -   μ ) / σ /√n

z(s)  =  ( 8776  - 8189 ) / 690 /√32

z(s)  =  587 *5,66/ 690

z(s) = 4,81

d) Comparing   z(c)    and z(s)

z(s)  >  z(c)   Then z(c) is in the rejection region and we reject H₀

e) We have evidence that at 95 % of confidence the new value for the debt in credit card is now bigger than the average
