To answer this item, we let x be the current number of chairs. After adding 50 chairs to the current inventory, the total number of chairs would then be equal to x + 50. The equation that would allow us to determine the value of x is written below.

     x + 50 = (3/2)(x)

Simplifying the equation,
   x + 50 = 3x/2
  x - 3x/2 = -50
   -x/2 = -50

Dividing both sides of the equation by -1/2, the value of x is equal to 100. 

To increase the inventory by 40%, the equation would be,
    y = x(1.4) = 1.4(100) = 140

<em>ANSWER: 140 chairs</em>

Answer:

A) interest rate

Explanation:

Interest rate risk refers to the risk of purchasing a bond that offers a certain coupon and then the price of that bond changes due to changes in the market interest rate.

This can work in your favor, if the market interest rate decreases, you will have a bond that pays above market coupon, which will increase the market value of the bond. But if the market interest rate increases, the market value of your bond will decrease, and you will lose money. This is what happened to Albert, since the market interest rate increased, the value of Albert's bond decreased.
