What is the value of b if the graph of 2x+by=10 is to have a y-intercept of (0,5)? The value of b is

2 (?)

Step-by-step explanation:

substitute 0 and 5 into the eqution so it becomes 2x0 + bx5 = 10

2x0 = 0

to get b by itself 10/5 = 2

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%
