Answer:

The answer is 54percent

Explanation:

Elasticity is a measure of how sensitive one variable is to any variable. It is expressed as the ratio of percentage changes in variables.

That is; %change in quantity demanded/%change in price.

This calculation shows how sensitive quantity demanded is to a change in price.

In the question, price elasticity of demand is 1.8

30 percent decrease in price

Therefore, the quantity demanded will increase by 30percent x 1.8

=54percent

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Explanation:

The total amount from each of the interest rates can be expressed as;

A=P(1+r/n)^nt

where;

A=Future value of investment

P=Initial value of investment

r=Annual interest rate

n=Number of times the interest is compounded annually

t=number of years of the investment

a). Bank 1

P=x

r=6.1%=6.1/100=0.061

n=1

t=assume number of years=1

replacing;

A=x(1+0.061/1)^(1×1)

A=x(1.061)

A=1.061 x

b). Bank 2

P=x

r=6%=6/100=0.06

n=12

t=1

Replacing;

A=x(1+0.06/12)^(12×1)

A=x(1.005)^12

A=1.0617 x

c). Bank 3

P=x

r=6%=6/100=0.06

n=1

t=1

Replacing;

A=x(1+0.06/1)^(1)

A=1.0600 x

d). Bank 4

P=x

r=6%=6/100=0.06

n=4

t=1

A=x(1+0.06/4)^(4×1)

A=x(1+0.015)^4

A=x(1.061)

A=1.0614 x

e). Bank 5

P=x

r=6%=6/100=0.06

n=365

t=1

A=x(1+0.06/365)^(365×1)

A=1.0618

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

$2,000

Explanation:

Usually, the landlord is required to notify the tenant if he/she plans to sell the property, but regardless of who owns the property (the original landlord or  a new landlord), the contract terms are valid and must be honored by both the current landlord and the tenant.

The new owner immediately became the new landlord and he/she assumed all the responsibilities stated in the lease contract. Since the lease contract stated that the "lessor (landlord) agreed to maintain all structures on the property in good repair", the new landlord must pay for any necessary repairs.
