The quantity will decline by 15%.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Elasticity of Demand = % Change in quantity / % Change in price

ð 1.50 = % change in quantity / 10

ð Percentage change in quantity = 15%

Percentage change in quantity shows an inverse relation with respect to the percentage change in price. In this case of ice-cream, a 10% jump in the price will result the quantity to fall by 15%.

How do I solve this STATS question?
k0ka [10]
We have the following data:

Margin of Error = E = 2.7 % = 0.027
Sample size = n = 900
Proportion of adults in favor = p = 60% = 0.6

We need to find the confidence level. For this first we need to find the z value.

The margin of error for a population proportion is given as:

E=z* \sqrt{ \frac{p(1-p)}{n} }

Using the values, we get:

0.027=z* \sqrt{ \frac{0.6*0.4}{900} } \\  \\ &#10;0.027=z*0.016 \\  \\ &#10;z= \frac{0.027}{0.01633}  \\  \\ &#10;z=1.65

As, seen from the z table, z=1.65 corresponds to the confidence level 90%. So, the answer to this question is option B

The solution to given system of equations is (x, y) = (2, -1)

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given system of equations are:

-1x + 2y = -4  -------- eqn 1

4x + 3y = 5 ------- eqn 2

We can solve the above system of equations by elimination method

<em><u>Multiply eqn 1 by 4</u></em>

4(-1x + 2y = -4)

-4x + 8y = -16  ------ eqn 3

<em><u>Add eqn 2 and eqn 3</u></em>

4x + 3y = 5

-4x + 8y = -16

( + ) --------------------

0x + 11y = -16 + 5

11y = -11

y = -1

<em><u>Substitute y = -1 in eqn 1</u></em>

-1x + 2(-1) = -4

-x -2 = -4

-x = -4 + 2

-x = -2

x = 2

<em><u>Check the answer:</u></em>

Substitute x = 2 and y = -1 in eqn 2

4x + 3y = 5

4(2) + 3(-1) = 5

8 - 3 = 5

5 = 5

Thus the obtained answer is correct

Thus the solution to given system of equations is (x, y) = (2, -1)
