Q3: POPULATION From 2013 to 2014, the city of Austin, Texas, Baw one
of the highest population growth rates in the country at 2.9%. The
population of Austin in 2014 was estimated to be about 912,000.
Part A If the trend were to continue, which equation represents
the estimated population t years after 2014?

A. Y = 912,000(0,029)

B. y = 912,000(3.9)

C. y = 1.029(912,000)

D. y = 912,000(1.029)

answer:  

step-by-step explanation:

here x represents the height of the pole,

and, the height of the shadow of the pole is 12 feet.

also, the angle of elevation from the top of the pole is 40°,

therefore,

by the low of sine,

which is the required equation for finding the value of x,

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%
