40 7 Romeo and Juliet first saw each other when they were 270 feet apart.
Romeo began running toward Juliet at a rate of 16 ft/s. At the same
moment, Juliet began running toward Romeo at a rate of 14 ft/s.
A. How many seconds after they started running will they meet?
B. How far will Romeo have run then?

A: 9 seconds

B: 144 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

A:

Let t = no. of seconds for them to meet

When they meet the sum of their distances is 270 ft, dist = rate * time

16t + 14t = 270

30t = 270

t = 270/30

t = 9 seconds

B:

He ran 9 sec at 16 ft/sec, therefore:

9 * 16 = 144 ft

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%
