Solve for x
30=-5(6x+6)

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

30=-5(6x+6)

step 1 distribute the -5

-5 * 6x = -30x

-5 * 6 = -30

we now have 30 = -30x - 30

step 2 add 30 to each side

30 + 30 = 60

-30 + 30 cancels out

we now have 60 = -30x

step 3 divide each side by -30

-30x/-30 = x

60 / -30 = -2

we're left with x = -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%
