Phantasy [73]

Answer:Candy can arrange in 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15 ways

2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 number of people can sit at each table

Solution:

Candy brought 30 cookies to a party. List all the ways she can arrange them on a plate in equal rows.

Given that Candy brought 30 cookies to party

She has to arrange the ways she can arrange them on plate in equal rows

We have to list the factors of 30

factors of 30 = 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15

So she can arrange in 8 ways

Possible arrangement are 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15 rows

David is setting up tables for 24 people at the party. The same number of people will sit at each table, and no one will sit alone. How many people can sit at each table? List all possibilities.

Fcators of 24 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12

Here we can eliminate 1 since given that no one will sit alone

Thus 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 number of people can sit at each table

Using the midpoint method (show your work), calculate the price elasticity of demand when the price of a barrel of gosum berries

Setler79 [48]

Answer:

0.18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

P₁ = $10, P₂ = $20

From the tables Q₁ = 900, Q₂ = 800

Using midpoint method:

Percentage change in quantity = $\frac{Q_2-Q_1}{(Q_1+Q_2)/2} *100\%=\frac{800-900}{(900+800)/2}*100\%= -11.76\%\\$

Percentage change in price =

$\frac{P_2-P_1}{(P_1+P_2)/2} *100\%=\frac{20-10}{(20+10)/2}*100\%= 66.67\%\\$

Price of elastic demand = Percentage change in quantity/ Percentage change in price = -11.76% / 66.67% = 0.18

The Price of elastic demand is positive because we took the absolute value and elasticity are always positive

Therefore since Price of elastic demand < 1, the demand is inelastic in this interval.

This means that, along the demand curve between $10 to $20, if the price changes by 1%, the quantity demanded will change by 0.18%. A change in the price will result in a smaller percentage change in the quantity demanded. For example, a 10% increase in the price will result in only a 1.8% decrease in quantity demanded and a 10% decrease in the price will result in only a 1.8% increase in the quantity demanded
