The expression 1.08s + 1.02b1.08s+1.02b predicts the end-of-year value of a financial portfolio where ss is the value of stocks and bb is the value of bonds in the portfolio at the beginning of the year. what is the predicted end-of-year value of a portfolio that begins the year with \$200$200 in stocks and \$100$100 in bonds?

$22350 is the predicted value of portfolio.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is 1.08s + 1.02b1.08s + 1.02b which predicts the end of year value of a financial portfolio.Here s = value of stocks and b = value of bonds.

Now we have to calculate the value of a portfolio with s = $200 and b = $100

So we will put the values of s and b in the given expression to calculate the value portfolio.

1.08×200 +1.02×(100)×1.08×(200)+ 1.02×(100) = 216 + 22032 + 102

= $22350

The predicted end to end year value of portfolio is = $22350

  b.   the average rate of change of f(x) is less than the average rate of change of g(x).

step-by-step explanation:

since the length of the interval is the same in each case, we only need to compare the change in y-value to see which is greater.

so the change in y-value for function f is (6 )) = 9.

the table tells us

so the change in y-value for function g is (31 -1) = 30.

the change in y-value of f(x) on the interval is less than the change in y-value of g(x) on the same interval, so the average rate of change of f(x) is less than the average rate of change of g(x).

the 3rd option is right
