John Doe estimates that the price elasticity of demand for new SUVs to be 0.75. If the price of SUVs rose by 15%; would the quan

If the coefficient of demand for the SUV is 0.75 this means that it has a relatively inelastic demand since it is less than. In other words, there is only a little alteration in demand when prices change.
So when the price of SUV rise by 15%, and it has a coefficient of 0.75, we can anticipate only 11.25% decrease in its demand. This is for the reason that the SUVs do not have many substitutes for it.
So to solve:
(x/15%) = 0.75
Then simply solve for x:
 x = (0.75)(0.15) = 11.25%

Which of the following is the equation for the graph shown?a. x^2/144+y^2/95=1b. x^2/144-y^2/95=1c. x^2/95+y^2/144=1d. x^2/95-y^
Andrews [41]

e follSOLUTION

Given the question in the image, the following are the solution steps to answer the question

STEP 1: Write the general equation of an ellipse

\frac{\mleft(x-h\mright)^2}{a^2}+\frac{(y-h)^2}{b^2^{}}=1

STEP 2: Identify the parameters

the length of the major axis is 2a

the length of the minor axis is 2b

\begin{gathered} 2a=24,a=\frac{24}{2}=12 \\ 2b=20,b=\frac{20}{2}=10 \end{gathered}

STEP 3: Get the equation of the ellipse

\begin{gathered} By\text{ substitution,} \\ \frac{(x-h)^2}{a^2}+\frac{(y-h)^2}{b^2}=1 \\ \frac{(x-0)^2}{12^2}+\frac{(y-0)^2}{10^2}=1=\frac{x^2}{144}+\frac{y^2}{100}=1 \end{gathered}

STEP 4: Pick the nearest equation from the options,

Hence, the equation of the ellipse in the image is given as:

\frac{x^2}{144}+\frac{y^2}{95}=1
