For which equation would x = 8 not be a solution? a. 8 x = 64
b. 4 x = 48
c. 10 x = 80
d. 9 x = 72

4x = 48

Step-by-step explanation:

Since x = 8,

4x = 48

4 * 8 = 32

So 32 is the LHS and 48 is the RHS.

Since the LHS is not equal to the RHS, x=8 is not a solution to the equation   4x = 48

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%
