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%

In your biology class, your final grade is based on several things: a lab score, scores on two major tests, and your score on th
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

Weighted\ Average =  73

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Lab = 21\%

Tests = 25\%

Exam = 29\%

Lab\ Score = 60

First\ Test = 81

Second\ Test = 69

Exam = 79

Required

The weighted average

To do this, we simply multiply each score by the corresponding worth.

i.e.

Weighted\ Average =  Lab\ worth * Lab\ score + Tests\ worth * Tests\ score.....

So, we have:

Weighted\ Average =  21\% * 60 + 25\% * 81 + 25\% * 69 + 29\% * 79

Using a calculator, we have:

Weighted\ Average =  73.01

Weighted\ Average =  73 --- approximated
