Your answer is incorrect.  Divide the estimated average annual income by the average investment. Investment cost plus residual value, divided by two, equals average investment. Can you please redo it? Thanks

Assume that there is a positive linear correlation between the variable R (return rate in percent of a financial investment) and the variable t(age in years of the investment) given by the regression equation R=2.5t+5.3. (a) Without further information, can we assume there is a cause and effect relationship between the return rate and the age of the investment? (b) If the investment continues to grow at a constant rate, what is the expected return rate when the investment is 7 years old? (c) If the investment continues to grow at a constant rate, how old is the investment when the return rate is 32.8%?

The probability distributions of expected returns for the assets are shown in the following table: Asset A Prob Return 0.2 -5% 0.4 10% 0.4 15% a) Calculate the expected return for asset A. b) Calculate the standard deviation for asset A.
