The diagonal of a rectangle is 25 in. The width is 15 in. What is the length of the rectangle? What is the area of the rectangle?

Length = 20 inches

Area = 300 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

TO FIND THE LENGTH

Pythagorean Theorem: 15 squared + x squared = 25 squared

                                    = 225 + x squared = 625

                                     - 225                      - 225

                                    = x squared = 400

                                find square root

                                    = x = 20 inches

                                               x = 20 inches

                                                        Length = 20 inches

TO FIND THE AREA

length x width

length = 20 inches

width = 15 inches

20 x 15 = 300

             Area = 300 inches

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%
