2. Now that you have the height of the cone, how can you solve for the
slant height, s?

s^2 = r^2 + h^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to know the radius of the base as well.

Then you use the Pythagoras theorem:

s^2 = r^2 + h^2     where r = radius and h = the height.

if x = 1, then the answer is 3.5

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%
