1 Point In mathematics, when we talk about a(n) we are talking about some of

the people, places, or things under consideration.

Population

Step-by-step explanation:

In mathematics, when we talk about the people, places, or things under consideration, we are referring to the population. The Population is the entire sum of objects in a study. When a researcher wants to study factors that concern a particular set of people, places, or things, the group under study is the population. For example, the researcher might want to do a study on the amount of food consumed by Brazilian students in the year 2019. The Brazilian students represent the population, because they are the group of people being studied.

The population under study might sometimes be difficult to study as a whole. For example, the study of the entire Brazilian students might be cumbersome. In such cases, a sample can be drawn from the population and studied, or the population narrowed down a little more, so that it can be easily studied.

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%
