What is the solution to the proportion 42 over 56 equals 12 over x ? x =_______
levacccp [35]
42 12
—- = —-
56 x


Simplified:

3 12
— = —-
4 x

Multiply both sides by 4:

3 = 48
—-
x

Multiply both sides by x:

3x = 48

Divide both sides by 3:

x = 16

You have just spoken to your insurance agent and you are interested in investing in a 20-Payment Life insurance policy. Given th
Lesechka [4]

Answer: You can use this to help you out:

Determine the term life insurance amount per thousand on a 20-year-old male for a 10-year policy given that the face value of the policy is $65,000 and the annual premium is $291.85.

a.

$0.00449

c.

$0.2227

b.

$4.49

d.

$222.72

First find how many thousands on the amount of the face value

You do that by dividing the amount of the face value by 1000

65,000÷1,000=65

So the term life insurance amount per thousand is

291.85÷65=4.49...answer

A contractor developed a multiplicative time-series model to forecast the number of contracts in future quarters, using quarterl
dusya [7]

There is a missing content in the question.

After the statements and before the the options given; there is an omitted content which says:

Referring to Table 16-5, in testing the coefficient of X in the regression equation (0.117) the results were a t-statistic of 9.08 and an associated p-value of 0.0000. Which of the following is the best interpretation of this result?

Answer:

C. The quarterly growth rate in the number of contracts is significantly different from 0% (? = 0.05).

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given question:

The resulting regression equation can be represented as:

\hat Y = 3.37 + 0.117 X - 0.083 Q_1 + 1.28 Q_2 + 0.617Q_3

where;

the estimated number of contracts in a quarter X is the coded quarterly value with X = 0

the first quarter of 2010 Q1 is a dummy variable equal to 1 in the first quarter of a year and 0 otherwise

Q2 is a dummy variable equal to 1 in the second quarter of a year and 0 otherwise

Q3 is a dummy variable equal to 1 in the third quarter of a year and 0 otherwise

Our null and alternative hypothesis can be stated as;

Null hypothesis :

H_0 :  The quarterly growth rate in the number of contracts is not  significantly different from 0% (? = 0.05)

H_a:  The quarterly growth rate in the number of contracts is significantly different from 0% (? = 0.05)

The decision rule is to reject the null hypothesis if the p-value is less than 0.05.

From the missing omitted part we added above; we can see that the   t-statistics value = 9.08 and the p-value = 0.000 .

Conclusion:

Thus; we reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternative hypothesis. i.e

The quarterly growth rate in the number of contracts is significantly different from 0% (? = 0.05)

Using the midpoint method, find the cross-price elasticity of demand for FedEx and UPS overnight shipping if the price of FedEx
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

Cross price elasticity using midpoint method = 0.56

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the mid-point method

Cross-price Elasticity of Demand = <u>% change in Quantity demanded of UPS</u>

                                                          % change of price of FedEx

%change in Quantity demanded of UPS

using Mid-point method                          = <u> Q2-Q1           </u>  × 100

                                                                     (Q1+Q2)÷ 2

                                      = <u>1.3-1.2           </u>   × 100

                                        (1.2+1.3)÷2

                                     = <u>0.1      </u> × 100

                                       1.25

                                     = 8%

% change in price of FedEx

using midpoint method    =<u> P2-P1            </u>× 100

                                             (P1+P2)÷ 2

                                          =<u> 75-65           </u>× 100

                                            (65+75)÷2

                                          =<u> 10  </u>   × 100

                                             70

                                          = 14.28%

Cross-price Elasticity of Demand =  8% ÷ 14.28%

using midpoint method                = 0.56

If c (x) = StartFraction 5 Over x minus 2 EndFraction and d(x) = x + 3, what is the domain of (cd)(x)?
Volgvan

Answer:

The domain of the function (cd)(x) will be all real values of x except x = 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The two functions are c(x) = \frac{5}{x - 2} and d(x) = x + 3

So, (cd)(x) = (\frac{5}{x - 2})(x + 3) = \frac{5(x + 3)}{x - 2}

Then, for x = 2 the function (cd)(x) will be undefined as zero in the denominator will make the function (cd)(x) undefined.

Therefore, the domain of the function (cd)(x) will be all real values of x except x = 2. (Answer)
