Identify the y intercept of the function f(x) = 2 + 4x +3

the correct answer is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

because in y intercept we take x=0

so put x=0 in the given equation

then solve it

f(x) = 2+4(0)+3

f(x) =2+3

f(x) = 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%
