Solution:

The given inequality is

For the best solution of the inequality, we need to subtract 40 from both the side of the equation for getting the value of x.  

Now subtracting 40 from both side we get,

Now if we put the value of x in the equation, we get,  

The value of

The answer for the problem will be maximum of 11 rides can be taken.

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%
