Determine whether the equation is always, sometimes, or never true. 6(x + 1) = 2(5 + 3x)

never true

Step-by-step explanation:

6(x + 1) = 2(5 + 3x)

distribute

6x + 6 = 10 + 6x

combine like terms by subtracting 6x and 6 from both sides

0 = 4

that is not a true statement, so this equation is never true

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%
