The final value (FV) that is paid in a loan (which is the sum of the capital and the interests) equals the present value (PV) of the loan multiplied by , in a simple interest context, where "n" equals the periods of time and "i" equals the interest rate valid for that periodicity.
Then . In this case, PV=$15,000; final value equals FV=$15,000+1,687.5= $16,687.5.
We should clear "n" from our equation, which means: . Dividing both sides by 15,000, then subtracting 1 both sides, and finally dividing by 0.075 both sides, results in n=1.5.
Then, Malorie had the loan for one an a half periods.
72 I believe because you have to subtract the 33 from the number of total games & then divide by two because you already took out the 33 more loses than wins.
