Question

To compare the efficiency of two teaching methods, a class of 24 students was divided randomly into two groups. Each group is taught according to a different method. The results at the end of the semester, on a scale of 0 to 100, are as follows: First group: 𝑛1 = 13; đ‘„Ì…1 = 74.5; 𝑠1 2 = 82.6 Second group: 𝑛2 = 11; đ‘„Ì…2 = 71.8; 𝑠2 2 = 112.6 Order: Assuming that the populations are normal and with equal and unknown variances, calculate the 95% confidence interval for the difference between the expected values of the two populations

Para calcular o intervalo de confiança (IC) a 95% para a diferença entre os valores esperados das duas populaçÔes, podemos usar a fórmula do IC para a diferença entre duas médias de populaçÔes independentes.

A fĂłrmula Ă© dada por:
IC = (\bar{x}_1 - \bar{x}_2) \pm t_{\alpha/2} \cdot \sqrt{\frac{s_1^2}{n_1} + \frac{s_2^2}{n_2}}

Onde:
- \bar{x}_1 e \bar{x}_2 são as médias das duas populaçÔes,
- s_1 e s_2 são os desvios padrão das duas populaçÔes,
- n_1 e n_2 sĂŁo os tamanhos das amostras,
- t_{\alpha/2} é o valor crítico da distribuição t-Student com n_1 + n_2 - 2 graus de liberdade e \alpha/2 = 0.025 (para um nível de confiança de 95%).

Calculando o intervalo de confiança:

IC = (74.5 - 71.8) \pm t_{0.025} \cdot \sqrt{\frac{82.6^2}{13} + \frac{112.6^2}{11}}

Agora, precisamos encontrar o valor de t_{0.025} olhando nas tabelas da distribuição t-Student para n_1 + n_2 - 2 = 13 + 11 - 2 = 22 graus de liberdade.

Para um IC de 95%, t_{0.025} = 2.074.

Substituindo na fĂłrmula:
IC = 2.7 \pm 2.074 \cdot \sqrt{\frac{82.6^2}{13} + \frac{112.6^2}{11}}

Calculando o intervalo de confiança:
IC = 2.7 \pm 53.8

IC = (-51.1, 56.5)

\boxed{IC = (-51.1, 56.5)}

A mutual fund manager has a $350 million portfolio with a beta of 1.10. The risk-free rate is 3.5%, and the market risk premium is 6.00%. The manager expects to receive an additional $150 million which she plans to invest in several different stocks. After investing the additional funds, she wants to reduce the portfolio’s risk level so that once the additional funds are invested the portfolio’s required return will be 9.20%. What must the average beta of the new stocks added to the portfolio be (not the new portfolio’s beta) to achieve the desired required rate of return?
