a(n)=60-30n

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation to use:

a(n) = a(1) + d(n-1)

where a(1) is the first term, d is the common difference between terms, and n is the nth term you are trying to find.

In this case, a(1) is 30, d is -30, and n is just n.

If you plug that into the equation and use the distributive property, you would get: a(n) = 30 -30n + 30.

Adding the two 30's gets you: a(n) = 60 - 30n, which is the solution.

answer: 7

step-by-step explanation:

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%
