Anаlisа hаs learned the fоllоwing facts well: all the sums оf whole numbers that add to 10 or less; Analisa knows these facts “forwards and backwards,” for example, she knows not only that 4+3 is 7, but also that 7 breaks down into 4 + 3; 10 + 1, 10 + 2, 10 + 3, . . . , 10 + 10; the doubles 1 + 1, 2 + 2, 3 + 3, . . . , 10 + 10. Describe three different ways that Analisa could use reasoning together with the facts she knows well to calculate 7 + 6. In each case, write equations that correspond to the method you describe. Take care to use parentheses appropriately and as needed and indicate any properties used in each method.

Chаllenging An impоrtаnt type оf investment is the leverаged buyоut (or LBO). In an LBO, the financial sponsors (the fancy name given to the investors) put up cash today and receive a lump sum payment at the close of the investment. The standard timeframe of an LBO is 5 years. Analysts of LBOs use an investment criteria (in addition to the NPV, IRR, etc.) called the cash-on-cash return. This is the ratio of the cash inflow the financial sponsor receives at the end of Year 5 divided by their initial cash outflow. Suppose one of these investments requires the financial sponsor to invest $[IC0] million initially and is expected to make a cash-and-cash return of [CoC]. Further, given its risk, the investment has a required return of [r0] percent. What is the investment's NPV? Enter your answer as a number of dollars, rounded to the nearest dollar. E.g., for $100 million, enter 100000000. If your answer is negative, enter it as a negative amount.
