Using the midpoint method (show your work), calculate the price elasticity of demand when the price of a barrel of gosum berries rises from $10 to $20. What kind of elasticity is this value that you computed for the price elasticity of demand and what does it mean for how demand will change based on a change in price within this price range?

Answer:

Given below

Range: 9

Mean: 16

Hope it helps:)

Step-by-step explanation:

The data is given in the question

Range-

All we need to do is find the difference between the largest data value in our set and the smallest data value. Stated succinctly we have the following formula:

Range = Maximum Value–Minimum Value

= 21- 12

= 9

Mean-

The mean is the average of the numbers. It is easy to calculate: add up all the numbers, then divide by how many numbers there are. The formula is:

Sum of term/ number of terms = mean

= 17+21+14+17+12+15+16/7

= 112/7

= 16

The range and the mean of the given data are 9 and 16 respectively.

The range is the difference between the smallest and highest numbers in a list or set.

Given that, a data 17, 21, 14, 17, 12, 15, 16,

a) Range = The difference between the lowest and highest values

= 21-12

= 9

b) Mean = (sum of all data)/(number of data)

=  (17+ 21+ 14+ 17+ 12+ 15+ 16)/7

= 112/7

= 16

Hence, The range and the mean of the given data are 9 and 16 respectively.

Answer:

The value of [tex]x[/tex]:

[tex]x = -2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the value of [tex]x[/tex]:

[tex]-9x + 1 = -x + 17[/tex]

-Add both sides by [tex]x[/tex]:

[tex]-9x + 1 + x = -x + x + 17[/tex]

[tex]-8x + 1 = 17[/tex]

-Subtract both sides by [tex]1[/tex]:

[tex]-8x + 1 - 1 = 17 - 1[/tex]

[tex]-8x = 16[/tex]

Divide both sides by [tex]-8[/tex]:

[tex]\frac{-8x}{-8} = \frac{16}{-8}[/tex]

[tex]x = -2[/tex]

So, the final answer would be [tex]x = -2[/tex] .

Answer:

x=−2

Step-by-step explanation:

−9x+1=−x+17

Add x to both sides.

−9x+1+x=−x+17+x

−8x+1=17

Subtract 1 from both sides.

−8x+1−1=17−1

−8x=16

Divide both sides by -8.

−8x/-8 = 16/-8

x=−2

Answer:

 | -6      0    |

  |  12   21   |

Step-by-step explanation:

When we multiply a matrix by a scalar, each term in the matrix is multiplied by the scalar

3  | -2  0  |

   |  4   7   |

becomes

 | -6  0  |

  |  12   21   |

Answer:

Solution : C

Step-by-step explanation:

This question involves scalar multiplication. Multiply each of the matrix elements by a scalar, in this case 3.

[tex]3\begin{bmatrix}-2&0\\ \:4&-7\end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix}3\left(-2\right)&3\cdot \:0\\ 3\cdot \:4&3\left(-7\right)\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

Simplifying each element, we receive the following matrix,

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}-6&0\\ 12&-21\end{bmatrix}[/tex] - And hence our solution is option c

Answer:

0.75 days (im a bit unsure but i tried my best, hope this helps :) )

Step-by-step explanation:

If it takes 8 technicians 36 hours to test 560 samples, find how many technicians can test 525 samples.

8: 560

x: 525

x= 7.5 (which is considered 7)

Then, find how long it takes to sample 525 samples, when 560 are done in 36  hours;

560: 36

525: x

x= 33.75 (which is considered 34 hours)

The last step is to check how long 15 technicians take to sample 525 samples when 8 can do the same number in 34 hours. this is inverse proportion so dont forget to flip one numerator and denominator

8; 34

15; x

it will become

15:34

8: x

x= 18 hours

Divide by 24 for days hence 0.75 days

Formula for compound interest: A = P( 1 + r/n)^nt

£414.12

Answer:

5/18

Step-by-step explanation:

540/9=60

60x4=240(Alvin's money)

60x5=300(simon's money)

Alvin gives half so you divide 240 by 2 which is 120

Simon gives a tenth so you divide 300 by ten which is 30

120+30=150

150/540=5/18 ( simpliest form)

Theo have 5/18 fraction of total amount of money.

Given that, Alvin and Simon shared £540 in the ratio 4:5.

The ratio is defined as the comparison of two quantities of the same units that indicates how much of one quantity is present in the other quantity.

Now, 4+5=9

So, share of Alvin = 4/9 × 540

= 4 × 60

= £240

Then Simon share = 540-240 = £300

Theo's share = 1/2 × 240

=£120

Theo's share 1/10 of 300

=1/10 × 300

=£30

Total Theo's share = 120+30 =£150

Now, fraction = 150/540

=5/18

Therefore, Theo have 5/18 fraction of total amount of money.

Answer:

The inverse is 1/4x

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 4x

y = 4x

Exchange x and y

x = 4y

Solve for y

1/4x = 4y/4

1/4x = y

The inverse is 1/4x

Answer:

y=(1/4)*x

Step-by-step explanation:

to inverse set f(x)=4x

as y=4x

Answer:

B - 13.6

Step-by-step explanation:

"What is the solution to the problem rounded to the correct number of significant figures?"

When you put it in a calculator, it will pop up as 13.57. You still want to round, so the only reasonable answer that you have is B, which is 13.6.

The solution to the problem rounded to the correct number of significant figures is,

⇒ 13.6

The process of combining two or more numbers is called the Addition. The 4 main properties of addition are commutative, associative, distributive, and additive identity.

Since, The rules for counting significant figures in addition:

1- The result should contain the decimal points as the fewest one of the added numbers.

12.77 has two decimals and 0.8 has 1 decimal,

so the result should contain 1 decimal.

The result of (12.77 + 0.8) is,

⇒ 13.57.

2- Now, we should minimize the result to contain 1 decimal, so we round the number beside the first decimal (7).

It is higher than 5, so increase the first decimal by 1.

So, the final result is 13.6.

Thus, The solution to the problem rounded to the correct number of significant figures is,

⇒ 13.6
