An investment firm offers three types of equity investments, a, b, and c. of the firm's clients, 30% invest in a, 50% invest in b, and 20% invest in
c. the rates of return are 10%, 6%, and 7% for a, b, and c, respectively. what is the expected value of the total return rate for the firm's clients?
a. 6.2%
b. 7.1%
c. 7.4%
d.8.2%

Option c. 7.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the expected value of the total return rate for the firm's clients

we know that

The sum of the percentage rates of return multiplied by each percentage of the firm clients in decimal form must be equal to the expected percentage value of the total return rate

Convert the percentage of the firm clients in decimal form

Solve for x

answdf

step-by-step explanation: bcuz d is right

step-by-step explanation:

let

we know that

the y-intercept is the y-coordinate of the point when the value of x is equal to zero

so

the y-coordinate of the point a is the y-intercept

the answer part a) is

the value of y-intercept is

part b) find the slope m

we know that

the value of the slope is equal to

substitute the values

therefore

the answer part b) is

the value of the slope is equal to

the general answer is

the slope is

the value of y-intercept is
