Assessing market expectations using CAPM

Assume that the risk-free rate is 1% and the expected market return is 9%. You are considering purchasing Super Soft stock, which currently sells for $100 a share and will pay its next (annual) dividend of $1.00 exactly one year from today. Super Soft is considered to be 70% more risky than the market as a whole, i.e., its beta is 1.7. If dividends are expected to grow at a constant rate (g %) per year into the infinite future, then what is the implied growth rate for this stock?
