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

The graph of a linear relation passes through the point (-2,7) and has a slope of 1/6.
Determine an equation for this linear relation in slope intercept form.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

eq. of any line withslope 1/6 is

y=1/6x+c

∵ it passes through (-2,7)

so 7=1/6(-2)+c

c=7+1/3=22/3

eq. of line is

y=1/6x+22/3

Answer:

y = 1/6x + 7 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = 1/6x+b

Substitute the point into the equation

7 = 1/6(-2)+b

7 = -1/3+b

Add 1/3 to each side

7 1/3 = b

y = 1/6x + 7 1/3

find H.C.F OF 4x²y and xy²​

Answers

Answer:

xy

Step-by-step explanation:

The HCF is known as the highest common factor. To find the HCF of two values, we have to take the greatest number that fits into all of their factors.

To start, we can list each value's factors.

For 4x²y, this can also be written as 4*x²*y = 4*x*x*y. In multiplication, we can take the factors of each value that is multiplied. Therefore, we can start with the factors of 4 and then go to the factors of x² and so on. Our factor list is thus 1,2,4,x,x²,y

Similarly, for xy² = x*y*y, our factors are x, y, and y²

The common factors for each of these are x and y. Assuming all values are positive and greater than 1, the x*y will be greater than either x or y. Therefore, the highest common factor would be x*y = xy

Answers

Answer:

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Multiply 4 with X and 3. You'll get 4x+12=x+42

Step 2: Keep the variable on one side and the number on the other side. you would subtract X and subtract 12. You'll get 3x=30

Step 3: Divide by the 3 on both sides and you'll get x=10

Given:

[tex] \\ ⇢ \tt \: 4(x + 3) = x + 42 \\ [/tex]

Solution:

[tex] \\ ⇢ \tt \: 4(x + 3) = x + 42 \\ \\ \\ \tt⇢ 4x + 12 = x + 42 \: \: \\ \\ \\ \tt \: ⇢4x - x = 42 - 12 \: \\ \\ \\ \tt \: ⇢3x = 30 \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \\ \\ \\ \tt \: ⇢x = \frac{30}{3} \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \\ \\ \\ \tt \: \pink{ \pmb{ \mathfrak{⇢x = 10}}} \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \\ \\ \\ [/tex]

Answer:

a-b will be and will always be a POSITIVE number.

This is because a is positive, and b is negative.

However, when you subtract a negative number, you are actually just adding it.

So, a - (-b) = a+b.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the vertices of triangle are A(0,-3), B(3,0) and C(-7,4).

We have to find the coordinates of the image of triangle under a rotation of 90° clockwise about the origin.

90° clockwise about the origin

Rule:[tex](x,y)\rightarrow (y,-x)[/tex]

Using the rule

The coordinates of A'

[tex]A(0,-3)\rightarrow A'(-3,0)[/tex]

The coordinates of B'

[tex]B(3,0)\rightarrow B'(0,-3)[/tex]

The coordinates of C'

If 2 < 20x - 13 < 3. what is one possible value for x?

Answers

Answer:

one possible value for x is 31/40

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's isolate the 20x term.  Add 13 to all three terms:

2 + 13 < 20x - 13 + 13 < 3 + 13

and this simplifies to:

15 < 20x < 16

Dividing all three terms by 20, we get:

15/20 < x < 16/20

A fraction halfway between 15/20 and 16/20 is (31/20)/2, so

one possible value for x is 31/40.

Check by substituting this into the original equation and checking whether that equation is now true:

2 <20(31/40) - 13 < 3

or

2 < 31/2 < 16, or 2 < 15.5 < 16 (this is true, so 31/40 is a solution)

Answers

Answer:

17

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of terms:

2020 - 2004 = 16

Each term is greater than 1, so the expression is greater than 16:

2150/2005 = 1 + 145/20052150/2006 = 1 + 144/2006...2150/2020 = 1 + 130/2020

It's easy to note each of the numbers getting smaller like 145/2005 > 144/2006 etc. Taking the smallest fraction.

The sum is:

S > 16 + 16*130/2020 = 16 + 2080/2020 > 16 + 1 = 17

So the largest integer not greater than S is 17.
