  If the team won 40% of its first 15 games then the number of the winning games was:  15 * 0.4 = 6. Therefore the team lost 15 - 6 = 9 games.
  So the number of the lost games stays the same while the team wins new games in the row. They have to achieve 55% wins, so 100% - 55% = 45% is the new percent of lost games.
  x * 0.45 = 9
  x = 9 : 0.45
  x = 20
  20 - 15 = 5
  Answer: The team have to win 5 games in a row in order to have 55%
 winning record.

A project has an initial cost of $6,900. The cash inflows are $850, $2,400, $3,100, and $4,100 over the next four years, respect
monitta

Answer:

Thus, payback period is = 3 years and 1.61 months

Explanation:

Payback period is the time it will take the project cash flows to recover the initial investment. The payback period for the project in question will be,

<u>Year</u>       <u>Cash flow</u>      <u>Remaining Amount</u>

1               850               (6900 - 850) = 6050

2              2400             (6050 - 2400) = 3650

3              3100              (3650 - 3100) = 550

As the year 4 cash flow is 4100, we know that the amount will be recovered in year 4. However, we will calculate the exact period or months in year 4 that it will take to recover total initial investment assuming that cashflow occurs at constant rate through out the year.

Time = 550 / 4100 * 12 = 1.61 months

Thus, payback period is = 3 years and 1.61 months

Answer:

A.) private, nonrival, and excludable

B.) Common resources

B. If anyone is able to enter a government forest legally it means it is a common good. Common goods are goods with rivalry but are non excludable.

C. The rate of logging in a government owned forest would be faster since there is little cost to cutting the trees, especially when there is no regulation.

Why do southeast asian farmers continue to practice slash-and-burn agriculture and shifting cultivation?
vovangra [49]
For all the technology coming out of China today, its rural community is still very primitive. Farmers in the Western World have found ways to scientifically improve their growing techniques. Crop rotations allow for nutrient rich plants to regenerate the soil every other year. Also letting a field go fallow one years allows for recovery of soil. There are many other ways the West is improving their crops and educating new farmers in agriculture science. However, southeast Asian farmers to do not have access to this technology or sometimes computers/internet. They are using the same techniques that they have for over a thousand years. Until education is available for them or they are taught different they will continue to use the same techniques taught by their father. Even to the detriment of their land.
