Answer: 0.48
Explanation:
P(A/B) = P(AnB)/P(B) where:
P(A/B) = The probability of event A occurring given that B has occurred.
P(AnB) = The probability of both events A and B occurring.
P(B) = the probability that event B occurs.
So let
P(A) = Probability that the residents of a household own 2 cars.
P(B) = Probability that the annual household income is greater than $25,000.
The question tells us that
P(A/B) = 0.8
Note that: P(A) = 0.7, P(B) = 0.6.
Since we want to work out P(AnB), because it gives the probability that residents have an annual household income over $25,000 and own 2 cars.
We would Rearrange our initial equation to make P(AnB) the subject formula becoming;
P(A/B) = P(AnB)/P(B)
P(B)*P(A/B) = P(AnB)
So, inserting our probabilities into this equation gives:
0.6*0.8 = 0.48
Answer:
The second year’s depreciation for this equipment using the straight line method is 8,500
Explanation:
Depreciation: Depreciation is a decreasing value of the assets due to the tear & wear, obsolescence, usage,etc.
The formula to compute the depreciation under straight lie method is shown below:
= 
= 
= $8,500
The depreciation amount under straight line method should remain same over the estimated useful life
So, the second year’s depreciation for this equipment is $8,500
Answer:
The answer is Option C
Explanation:
Any event that would either decrease the demand for loanable funds or increase the supply of loanable funds will decrease the equilibrium interest rates. Supply of loanable funds is affect by the amount of national savings. National savings in turn, is the sum of private savings, public saving and net capital inflow.
In option C, capital inflows are increasing. This means that there would be an excess supply of money in the economy which can be converted into loanable funds. This would, therefore, push the supply curve to the right thereby reducing the real interest rate equilibrium.

Matrix payoff:
Sharon
Left Right
Paolo Left 8, 3 4, 4
Right 5, 3 5, 4
Answer:
The only dominant strategy in this game is for ___Paolo______ to choose ____Right______.
The outcome reflecting the unique Nash equilibrium in this game is as follows: Paolo chooses ____Right______ and Sharon chooses __ Right_____.
Explanation:
a) Paolo's dominant strategy is the strategy that always provides the greater utility to Paolo, no matter what Sharon's strategy is. In this case, the dominant strategy for Paolo is to choose RIGHT always.
b) The Nash Equilibrium concept determines the optimal solution in a non-cooperative game in which each player (e.g. Paolo and Sharon) lacks any incentive to change their initial strategies. This implies that each player can achieve their desired outcomes by not deviating from their initial strategies since each player's strategy is optimal when considering the decisions of the other player.
