As a lifeguard, sara earns a base pay of $80 per day. if her day involves swim instruction, sara earns an additional 9t dollars, where t represents the number of hours she gives instruction and $9 is her hourly rate. the total amount sara earns in a day can be expressed as 80 + 9t.

(a) what does 9t represent in this context?

(b) what are the terms and the coefficients in the expression 80 + 9t

(c) rewrite the expression for 7 hours of swim instruction.

(d) how much will sara earn in all?

Step-by-step explanation:

Sara's base pay is $80

(a) The 9t represents the additional amount of money that she earns if she gives instruction for t hours. 9 stands for $9 per hour

b)The term in the expression is t which stands for the number of hours that she instructs. The coefficient is 9 which stands for the hourly rate

c) The expression for 7 hours would be

We will substitute t into 80 + 9t. It becomes

80 + 9×7

d) in all, she will earn

80 + 9×7 = $143

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%
