For which system of equations is the graph a pair of parallel lines? A. { y = 2 3 x − 4 y = 5 + 2 3 x B. { y = 7 9 x + 9 y = 9 − 7 9 x C. { y = 1 5 x − 1 y = 5 x − 1 D. { y = 3 4 x + 8 y = 8 − 4 3 x

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%
