To solve this problem and calculate the security's equilibrium rate of return, you should sum<span> the security's default risk premium (2.00%),</span> the inflation risk premium (1.75%), the real risk-free rate (3.50%), the security's liquidity risk<span> premium (0.25%) </span><span>and the maturity risk premium (0.85%). So, you have:
ij*=2.00%+1.75%+3.50%+0.25%+0.85%
</span> ij*=8.35%<span>

Answer:
Both Scott and Tara have responded correctly.
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The area of a trapezoid is equal to
A=(1/2)[b1+b2]h
we have
b1=16 cm
b2=24 cm
h=8 cm -----> <em>Note</em> The height is 8 cm instead of 18 cm
substitute
A=(1/2)[16+24](8)
A=160 cm²
<em>Verify Scott 's work</em>
<em>Note</em> Scott wrote A = (1/2)(24 + 16)(8) instead of A = 2(24 + 16)(8)
Remember that the Commutative Property establishes "The order of the addends does not alter its result"
so
(24+16)=(16+24)
A = (1/2)(24 + 16)(8)=160 cm²
<em>Verify Tara's work</em>
<em>Note</em> Tara wrote A = (1/2)(16+24)(8) instead of A = (16 + 24)(8)
A = (1/2)(16+24)(8)=160 cm²

Answer: b = 17</h3>
====================================================
Explanation:
The line must go through the point (5,2) which means x = 5 and y = 2 pair up together.
We'll plug these x and y values into the equation and solve for b.
y = -3x+b
2 = -3(5)+b
2 = -15+b
2+15 = b
17 = b
b = 17
The equation y = -3x+b turns into y = -3x+17
