Three contractors (call them a, b, and
patriot [66]

Answer:  The probabilities of winning a contract are

P(A) = \frac{28}{36}  

P(B) = \frac{7}{36}  

P(C) = \frac{1}{36}


Let the Probability of C winning the contract - P(C) be 'X'

Then,

Probability of B winning the contract - P(B) will be '7X'     and

Probability of A winning the contract - P(A) will be \mathbf{P(A) = 4 * P(B) = 4*7X = 28X}

Since the total of all the probabilities is 1,

\mathbf{P(A) + P(B) + P(C) =1}

\mathbf{28X + 7X + X =1}

\mathbf{36X =1}

\mathbf{X =\frac{1}{36}}

So,

P(A) = \frac{28}{36}

P(B) = \frac{7}{36}

P(C) = \frac{1}{36}

from accessibility improvement to land development: a comparative study on the impacts of madrid-seville high-speed rail.
iris [78.8K]

The five cities connected by the Madrid-Seville High-Speed Rail (HSR)—Madrid, Ciudad Real, Puertollano, Cordoba, and Seville—that have changed their land cover are the subject of this study. Between 1991 and 2006, there was an analysis. According to the report, the two largest cities in the Madrid-Seville region—Madrid and Seville—receive the majority of the benefits from land development, although smaller HSR-served cities also gain from this. Each city has its own unique land development process.

Madrid–Seville high-speed rail line.
The 472 kilometres (293 miles) long Madrid-Seville high-speed line, also known as NAFA or Nuevo Acceso Ferroviario a Andaluca, is a Spanish railway line used for high-speed travel between Madrid and Seville. Since April 21, 1992, the first high-speed rail link in Spain has been operational, reaching speeds of up to 300 km/h (186 mph). Over half less time was required to go between the two end points.

The high-speed rail line from Madrid to Malaga departs at Cordoba. Only the Alvia service is extended from Seville to Cádiz.

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

I will be willing to pay $1,106 for a vanguard bond.

Explanation:

Coupon payment = Par value x Coupon rate

Coupon payment = $1,000 x 8%

Coupon payment = = $80

Price of bond is the present value of future cash flows, to calculate Price of the bond use following formula:

Price of the Bond = C x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + r )^-n ) / r ] + [ F / ( 1 + r )^n ]

Price of the Bond =$80 x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + 7% )^-20 ) / 7% ] + [ $1,000 / ( 1 + 7% )^20 ]

Price of the Bond = $80 x [ ( 1 - ( 1.07 )^-20 ) / 0.07 ] + [ $1,000 / ( 1.07 )^20 ]

Price of the Bond = $848 + $258

Price of the Bond = $1,106
