Chase and his brother like to play basketball.  About a month ago they decided to keep track of how many games they have each won.  As of today, Chase has won 18 out of the 30 games against his brother.
How many games would Chase have to win in a row in order to have a 75% wining record?
How many games would Chase have to win in a row in order to have a 90% winning record?
Is Chase able to reach a 100% winning record?  Explain why or why not.
Suppose that after reaching a winning record of 90% in part (b), Chase had a losing streak.  How many games in a row would Chase have to lose in order to drop down to a winning record below 55% again?
