What is the slope of the line that passes through the pair of points?
(-5.5, 6.1), (-2.5, 3.1)

a. -1

b. 1

c. 0

d. undefined

The correct answer is option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two points are given ::(-5.5, 6.1), (-2.5, 3.1)

Slope from the two point is determined by the formula :

The slope of the line that passes through the pair of points is -1.

Hence, the correct answer is option A.

step-by-step explanation:

if the four friends split the cost, p, of the pizza evenly, then each friend pays one-fourth of the cost of the pizza.

the expression is   or  

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%
