Answer:
I used the relative frequency method
Explanation:
To solve this question we can use the relative frequency to find out each probability. The relative frequency is the ratio of the occurrence of each event and the total number of outcomes.
Here the experiment has been repeated 50 times, so that is the total number of outcomes and the denominator. There are 3 possible events E1, E2, and E3, so we can calculate the ratios to get the probabilities
Event E1 occurred 20 times of the 50: 
Event E2 occurred 13 times of the 50: 
Event E3 occurred 17 times of the 50: 
Answer:
increase the price of our products or services.
Explanation:
When the price elasticity is less than 1 (inelastic), then an increase in the price of our products or services will result in a proportionally smaller decrease in the quantity demanded. Therefore, by increasing our prices, we can increase total revenue even if the quantity demanded decreases a little.
Answer:
Instructions are listed below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
On January 1, 2021, the Excel Delivery Company purchased a delivery van for $153,000. At the end of its five-year service life, it is estimated that the van will be worth $15,600.
Annual depreciation= 2*[(book value)/estimated life (years)]
Year 1= (153,000/5)*2= 61,200
Year 2= [(153,000 - 61,200)/5]*2= 36,720
Year 3= (55,080/5)*2= 22,032
Year 4= 13,219
Year 5= 7,932
Total= $141,103
