  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.

nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

if YTM at 4% price :  $2,902.1237

if YTM at 8% price :  $1,788.0448

The bonds are above face value asthey offer a higher coupon payment than the market yield therefore the bond holders are willing to pay above theri face value

Explanation:

the market price of the bond will be the present value of coupo payment and maturity:

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

C 150.000

time 30

rate 0.04

150 \times \frac{1-(1+0.04)^{-30} }{0.04} = PV\\

PV $2,593.8050

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity   1,000.00

time   30.00

rate  0.04

\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.04)^{30} } = PV  

PV   308.32

PV c $2,593.8050

PV m  $308.3187

Total $2,902.1237

No we repeat the process with the yield at 8%

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

C 150.000

time 30

rate 0.08

150 \times \frac{1-(1+0.08)^{-30} }{0.08} = PV\\

PV $1,688.6675

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity   1,000.00

time   30.00

rate  0.08

\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.08)^{30} } = PV  

PV   99.38

PV c $1,688.6675

PV m  $99.3773

Total $1,788.0448

Leona [35]

Answer: it can produce that good using fewer resources than its trading partner

Explanation:

A country has an absolute advantage in the production of a good when such country can produce the good using fewer resources than another country.

Absolute advantage can be due to the natural endowment of a country. For example, let's say Japan uses 2 hours in producing a good while Brazil uses 5 hours in producing such good. Then, it can be deduced that Japan has an absolute advantage over Brazil.

ikadub [295]

Answer:

money deposited after end of 3rd year is $4877.75  

Explanation:

given data

initial amount  = $10000

rate = 5%

time = 3 year

after 7 year account balance = $20000

solution

we consider here money deposited after end of 3rd year is = x

first we get here compounded amount after 3 years as

compounded amount = initial amount × (1+r)^{t}    ................1

compounded amount = 10000 × (1+0.05)^{3}

compounded amount = $11576.25

so at 7 year account balance is

account balance = ( compounded amount + x )  × (1+r)^{t} ....................2

$20000  = ( $11576.25 + x ) × (1+0.5)^{4}  

solve it we get

x =  $4877.75  

so money deposited after end of 3rd year is $4877.75
