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>

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

c. 10.38%

Explanation:

Loan Amount = $10,000

Quarterly Interest payment = $250

Interest Payment for the year = $250 x 4

Interest Payment for the year = $1,000

Nominal interest rate = ($1,000 / $10,000) x 100 = 10%

Nominal interest rate = r = 10%

Number of periods = m = 4

Effective Interest rate = [ ( 1 + r/m )^m]-1

Effective Interest rate = [ ( 1 + 0.1/4 )^4] -

Effective Interest rate = [ ( 1 + 0.025 )^4] -1

Effective Interest rate = 10.38%
