1-Explain the empirical rule in your own words. How many
standard deviations would it take for you to consider a value to be
statistically different?
2- Explain the four different types of sampling and give an
example of each.
(a) what is an empirical rule (b) why is empirical rule useful
(c) Can the empirical rule be used on any population, why and why
not?
A common way that statistics are misinterpreted or misleading,
depending on how it's presented or when people assume relationships
that exist at a group level held at the individual level. You are
required to search for examples of misleading statistics, post a
link to the article/ example, and discuss why and how it is...
Using the following 3 securities calculate:
1. Expected return
2. Variance
3. Standard deviation
4. Correlation between all possible pairs
5. Covariance between all possible pairs
Probability Stock A Stock B Stock C
.2 14% 29% 4%
.2 11% 21% 9%
.2 5.25% 25% 14%
.4 -3% 10% 20%
Using the following percentages, calculate the portfolio
variance and expected return for each portfolio.
Portfolio Stock A Stock B Stock C
1 40% 60%
2 60% 40%
3 35% 30% 35%
1. What is the mean and median?
2. what is the standard deviation?
3. what is the minimum and maximum at a minimum?
