Which of the following statements regarding immunization are true?
I. If long-term interest rates are lower than short-term rates, the need for immunization is reduced.
II. Either Macaulay or modified duration can be used to develop an immunization strategy.

A. I only
B. II only
C. III only
D. I, II and III
E. The correct answer is not given by (A), (B), (C), or (D).

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B. II only

Step-by-step explanation:

Immunisation is used to lower the risk factor that may arise due to change in interest rate . For it, cash inflow and cash outflow are matched in terms of their timing . In other words, effective duration of asset and liability are matched with the help of methods like cash flow matching , duration matching etc.

Even lowering of interest  rate in long term may entail risk because it may increase the bond price which may affect the business adversely in some way if bond is kept as liability . It may reduce the price of asset if it is held as asset .

Exact matching is possible only when matching of cash flow is achieved along with its timing . Matching of present value will not serve the purpose .

Macaulay or modified duration can be used to develop an immunization strategy . Both of them calculate the duration of asset and liability with some change in the method of calculation.

The sum of two of the angles of a heptagon is 200ᵒ. If the remaining angles are equal, find the value of each of the remaining angles.

Answers

Answer:    140°

Step-by-step explanation:

Heptagon is a seven-sided polygon. So heptagon has 7 angles.

As known the sum of the angles in poligon is

N=180°*(n-2)

So N(7)=180°*(7-2)=900°

if the sum of 2 angles are 200° then  the sum of residual 5 angles is

900°-200°=700°

The remaining 5 angles are equal so each of them is

∠α=700°:5=140°

for the data values below construct a 95 confidence interval if the sample mean is known to be 12898 and the standard deviation is 7719

Answers

Answer:

A 95% confidence interval for the population mean is [3315.13, 22480.87] .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that for quality control purposes, we collect a sample of 200 items and find 24 defective items.

Firstly, the pivotal quantity for finding the confidence interval for the population mean is given by;

                             P.Q.  =  [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]  ~  [tex]t_n_-_1[/tex]

where, [tex]\bar X[/tex] = sample proportion of defective items = 12,898

             s = sample standard deviation = 7,719

            n = sample size = 5

             [tex]\mu[/tex] = population mean

Here for constructing a 95% confidence interval we have used a One-sample t-test statistics as we don't know about population standard deviation.

So, 95% confidence interval for the population mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is ;

P(-2.776 < [tex]t_4[/tex] < 2.776) = 0.95  {As the critical value of t at 4 degrees of

                                               freedom are -2.776 & 2.776 with P = 2.5%}  

P(-2.776 < [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] < 2.776) = 0.95

P( [tex]-2.776 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] < [tex]{\bar X-\mu}[/tex] < [tex]2.776 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] ) = 0.95

P( [tex]\bar X-2.776 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] < [tex]\mu[/tex] < [tex]\bar X+2.776 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] ) = 0.95

95% confidence interval for [tex]\mu[/tex] = [ [tex]\bar X-2.776 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] , [tex]\bar X+2.776 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] ]

                                = [ [tex]12,898-2.776 \times {\frac{7,719}{\sqrt{5} } }[/tex] , [tex]12,898+2.776 \times {\frac{7,719}{\sqrt{5} } }[/tex] ]

                               = [3315.13, 22480.87]

Therefore, a 95% confidence interval for the population mean is [3315.13, 22480.87] .

A vendor bought a supply of ice cream bars at three for 20 cents. He ate one and sold the remainder at 10 cents each. If he made $200.00, how many bars did he buy?

Answers

Answer:

201 bars

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of bars bought be x.

Cost of three bars is 20 cents.

Therefore, 1 bar will cost [tex]\frac{20}{3}[/tex] cents.

He ate one of the bars...

Therefore, remaining bars will be x - 1

... He sold the remainder at 10 cents each i.e

1 bar = 10 cents

(x - 1) bars = 10( x - 1) cents

...He made $200.00 from selling the remaining bars.

10( x - 1) cents = $200.00             ---------------(i)

Convert from dollars to cents

$1 = 10 cents

$200 = 200 x 10 cents = 2000 cents

From equation (i)

10(x - 1)cents = 2000 cents

=> 10( x - 1) = 2000            [divide both sides by 10]

=> x - 1 = 200

=> x = 200 + 1

=> x = 201

Therefore, he bought 201 bars of ice cream.

Answers

Answer:

(B) Between 6 and 9 minutes, Sameen's distance from work is decreasing

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the graph, we want to make sure we are looking at the right axis.

The x-axis, the horizontal one, is minutes.

The y-axis, the vertical one, is distance from work.

We can see that while x is between 6 and 9 minutes, the graph slopes downwards. This signifies a decrease in distance from work.

So between 6 and 9 minutes, Sameen's distance from work is decreasing.

What are the attributes of the boundary line of this inequality? -3x − 2y < 6

Answers

Answer:

D.  The line is dashed with a y-intercept at (0,-3) and slope of -.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you rearrange the inequality -3x-2y<6 to y=mx+b form you should get y>-3/2x-3

The slope would be mx or -3/2

The Y intercept would be b or -3

I hope this helps :)

The line with an inequality equation -3x - 2y < 6 when plotted on the graph, occupies a region with a dashed boundary line with the attributes, the slope m = -3/2, and the y-intercept c = -3.

What is an inequality equation of a line?

An inequality equation for a line is the equation that is true for certain values of its variables. The inequality symbols are ' <, >, ≤, ≥ '.

How do graph an inequality?

When inequality is graphed,

The region of values for which the inequality becomes true is shaded.If the inequality has < or > symbols, then the boundary of that region is represented with the dashed line. If the inequality has ≤ or ≥ symbols, then the boundary of that region is represented with the solid line (no breaks).

Writing the given inequality in the slope-intercept form of a line:

The inequality equation is re-arranged in the slope-intercept form to know the attributes of the line such as the slope of the line and the y-intercept of the line.

The given inequality is -3x - 2y < 6

Step 1: Rewriting the equation into the slope-intercept form:

-3x - 2y < 6

To change the sign,  change the inequality symbol also.

⇒ 3x + 2y > 6

⇒ 2y > 6 - 3x

⇒ y > -3/2x - 3

Therefore, the obtained equation is in the slope-intercept form.

So, m = -3/2 and c = -3

Step 2: Graphing the inequality:

To graph the line, we need coordinates.

So, consider x = 0  inorder to get y-coordinate

On substituting,

-3(0) -2y = 6

y = -3

∴ (0, -3) is one of the coordinates of the line

Then, consider y = 0 inorder to get x-coordinate

On substituting,

-3x - 2(0) = 6

x = -2

∴ (-2, 0) is one of the coordinates of the line

These points are plotted in the graph and a line is drawn from these points.

Step 3: Observations from the graph:

Since the inequality is -3x -2y < 6 ( < ), the region above the line is shaded ( the values that satisfies the inequality). The line is represented as a dashed line that indicates the boundary for the inequality region.This means the line is excluded from the solution set of the given inequality.

Therefore, the attributes of the boundary line (dashed line) are slope -3/2 and y-intercept -3.

Answers

Looks like your function is

[tex]f(x)=\dfrac x{6x^2+1}[/tex]

Rewrite it as

[tex]f(x)=\dfrac x{1-(-6x^2)}[/tex]

Recall that for [tex]|x|<1[/tex], we have

[tex]\dfrac1{1-x}=\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^\infty x^n[/tex]

If we replace [tex]x[/tex] with [tex]-6x^2[/tex], we get

[tex]f(x)=\displaystyle x\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac(-6x^2)^n=\sum_{n=0}^\infty (-6)^n x^{2n+1}[/tex]

By the ratio test, the series converges if

[tex]\displaystyle\lim_{n\to\infty}\left|\frac{(-6)^{n+1} x^{2(n+1)+1}}{(-6)^n x^{2n+1}}\right|=6|x^2|\lim_{n\to\infty}1=6|x|^2<1[/tex]

Solving for [tex]x[/tex] gives the interval of convergence,

[tex]|x|^2<\dfrac16\implies|x|<\dfrac1{\sqrt6}\implies -\dfrac1{\sqrt 6}<x<\dfrac1{\sqrt 6}[/tex]

We can confirm that the interval is open by checking for convergence at the endpoints; we'd find that the resulting series diverge.

The interval of the convergence is (-1/√6 < x < 1/√6). We can confirm that the interval is open by checking for convergence at the endpoints.

What is a function?

The function is an expression, rule, or law that defines the relationship between one variable to another variable. Functions are ubiquitous in mathematics and are essential for formulating physical relationships.

The given function is

[tex]\rm f(x) = \dfrac{x}{6x^2 + 1} \\\\or \\\\f(x) = \dfrac{x}{1 - (-6x^2)}[/tex]

For |x| < 1, we have

[tex]\rm \dfrac{1}{1-x} = \Sigma_{n=0}^{\infty} \ x^n[/tex]

If x is replaced with -6x², then we have

[tex]\rm f(x)= \Sigma_{n=0}^{\infty} (-6x^2 )^n = \Sigma_{n=0}^{\infty} (-6)^n x^{2n+1}[/tex]

Then by the ratio test, the series converges if

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{n \to \infty} \left| \dfrac{(-6)^{n+1}x^{2(n+1)+1}}{(-6)^{n}x^{2n+1}} \right|=6|x^{2}| \displaystyle \lim_{n \to \infty }1=6|x^{2}| < 1[/tex]

Solving for x, the interval of convergence will be

[tex]|x^2| < \dfrac{1}{6} \\\\|x| < \dfrac{1}{\sqrt6} \\\\-\dfrac{1}{\sqrt6} < x < \dfrac{1}{\sqrt6}[/tex]

We can confirm that the interval is open by checking for convergence at the endpoints.

The Persistent Gardener It was Jilly's last day in the green house. Summer was coming to an end and so was the growing season. School would be starting next week and the fall plants were well enough along to allow Mrs. T. to manage the greenhouses herself. As Jilly worked the plants for the last time, she tried to focus on the new school year instead of the details of the greenhouse. It had been a hard, hot summer, but Jilly was not ready for it to be over. Jilly moved down the tables, tucking a stray hair behind her ear with a gloved and already dirty hand. She'd repotted the last of the rosemary plants and mixed a new batch of potting soil already. Mrs. T. now had enough potting soil to last her through September. Jilly looked at a couple of maiden-hair ferns that were beginning to yellow in their small pots. She loved their lacey fronds and had grown concerned over the last few days that they needed repotting or a boost of fertilizer. She had also worried that she would continue to find chores that needed doing, plants that needed help, right up until the minute she left today. She hated unfinished things. She hated details not being tended to. The sun had been above the trees and blasting the greenhouse for a good hour now. Jilly listened for the familiar whirr of the automatic vents opening. When the greenhouse reached a certain temperature, the vents would open automatically. The vents would have a cooling effect for an hour or so, and then no amount of breeze would put a dent in the heat. Mrs. T. often claimed Jilly must be part reptile as she was able to work longer in the greenhouse than anyone else. The heat just didn't bother her. In fact, Jilly often looked forward to the warmth of the greenhouse and feeling the heat seep into her bones. It felt good to her, but she understood others who found it hard to breathe in 100 degree temperatures. Jilly heard the greenhouse door bang, and looked up from her ferns to see Mrs. T. walking down the aisle with a tray of young plants. Mums, Jilly supposed, the flowers everyone wants for fall. She had helped Mrs. T. take cuttings and plant the small stems in new pots. They were doing nicely from the look of things. "We will keep these in here for now," said Mrs. T. "They are getting too much rain outside." It had been a rainy couple of days. Jilly knew, as well as anyone, that overwatering could kill potted plants quickly. "Do you remember when I overwatered those mint plants?" Jilly asked Mrs. T. "I used to think no one could kill a mint plant," Mrs. T. said, laughing. "Well I am full of surprises, apparently," Jilly replied. Jilly remembered the sad green plants that just kept looking more and more wilted no matter how much water she gave them. It was a beginner's mistake, and Jilly had been so embarrassed for making it. "That you are," replied Mrs. T. "But I know you learned a lesson you won't ever forget." "Of course. Herbs like their roots damp, not flooded," Jilly answered. "Well that is not the lesson I was thinking of," Mrs. T. said. Jilly wondered for a minute what the lesson could be. She straightened the rows of geraniums in front of her, picking up one or two to check for aphids under the leaves. It had been a summer full of lessons, some especially hard for a girl who thought she knew a lot about plants. She breathed deeply the warm, humid air. She hated the cooped up feeling of air conditioned air, the feeling of being cut off from the sun. She knew school and the library would offer only these uncomfortable feelings and little time to spend in the sun or with plants. She had come to understand this over the summer-her need to be around growing things was huge. "I'm not sure, Mrs. T." she said, "I've learned so much this summer. I couldn't possibly say what you are thinking." "You did learn many lessons, Jilly. You knew so much when you started. You've gone farther than any other assistants I've had. I will miss you." "And I will miss you," Jilly replied. "Thank you for the opportunity and the job." Jilly watched Mrs. T. put the tray of mums down on the center row of tables. Wearing her familiar brown apron, Mrs. T. looked just as she had on Jilly's first day. "My pleasure, of course, dear," Mrs. T. replied. "My hope for you, as for all my assistants over the years, is that you will learn as much about yourself as you do about growing plants." Recalling her thoughts all morning, about what she enjoyed about her summer job, Jilly realized she knew much more than just how to not drown the mint.
