What is the slope of the line that passes through points (0,7) and (-3,0)?

required rate of return = 0.166 = 16.6%

step-by-step explanation:

under the capital asset pricing model (capm), the required or expected rate of return for a particular security or asset is given using the formula:

required rate of return = risk-free rate + beta*(market risk premium)

we are given that;

risk-free rate = 4% = 0.04

beta = 1.4

market risk premium = 9% = 0.09

we simply plug these values into the above formula;

required rate of return = 0.04 + 1.4*(0.09)

required rate of return = 0.04 + 0.126

required rate of return = 0.166 = 16.6%

look at the picture.

1.

ef : ab = 2 : 3

gf : cb = 2 : 3

gh : cd = 2 : 3

he : da = 2 : 3

2.

∠a ≅ ∠e

∠b ≅ ∠f

∠c ≅ ∠g

∠d ≅ ∠h

3.

use pythagorean theorem:

the length of the abcd trapezoid sides:

|ab| = 3 cm

|bc| = 10 cm

|cd| = 3(3) cm = 9 cm

|da| = 8 cm

the perimeter of abcd = 3 + 10 + 9 + 8 = 30 cm

the ratio of perimeters of the tarapezoids is equal 2 : 3.

substitute:

      cross multiply

      divide both sides by 3
