Answer:

option C is correct CPI in Kansas City is 125 and in Dallas is 150.

Explanation:

given data

Kansas City pays = $50,000

Dallas that pays = $60,000

solution

we know that CPI base year is always  = 100

first we get here real salary value in Kansas City that is express as

Real Value = Salary in Kansas City × (CPI base year ÷ CPI current year) ..........1

put her value we get

Real Value = $50,000 × \frac{100}{125}

Real Value =  $40000

and now we get here real salary value in Dallas that is express as

Real Value = Salary in Dallas City × (CPI base year ÷ CPI current year) ..........2

put her value we get

Real Value = $60,000 × \frac{100}{150}

Real Value =  $40000

so now we can see that both value is same in both city with CPI Kansas City = 125 and CPI Dallas = 150

so here correct option is c. 125 in Kansas City and 150 in Dallas

Suppose that the demand elasticity for cigarettes is equal to 2.0. If the demand elasticity for Camel cigarettes is equal to 6.0
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

Let understand what elastic and inelastic demand is:

- If the small change in price causes heavy change in the quantity demanded then the demand is said to be elastic.

- Opposite to it is inelastic where even there is a very high change in the price but there is not so much effect on the quantity demanded.

Here, Camel cigarettes has a price elasticity of demand which is equal to 6 which means if the price suddenly increased, the quantity demanded will decrease. If any cigarette is having price elasticity of demand less than 2, it means it has less elasticity or if price increases very much then quantity demanded will not be affected so much.

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

The answer is:

Inelastic

Elastic

Explanation:

Nita’s demand for Coca-Cola will be relatively more inelastic i.e his demand will not be sensitive to price. Increasing the price of Coca-cola will not make Nita to change its taste because he is a devoted Coca-Cola consumer.

Becky’s demand will be relatively more elastic because he has an option to choose between Pepsi and Coca-cola.

Any increase in price of Coca-cola will make Becky to shift to Pepsi.

Suppose you are interested in studying whether scent affects spatial reasoning abilities. You decide to test spatial reasoning u
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer: 1. c. There are no differences in the mean completion times among the scents compared

2. Scent; Completion Time

Explanation:

The Null Hypothesis of a research is that hypothesis which you aim to disprove because it holds that no significant relationship between the variables being researched exists.

In this scenario you are studying whether scent affects spatial reasoning abilities.

The Null Hypothesis will.be that which states that there is no relationship between scent and spartial reasoning therefore there will be no differences in the mean completion times among the scents compared.

The factor of interest is the variable that is being changed to examine a difference making it the SCENT in this scenario.

The dependent variable changes due to the Factor of Interest so it is the COMPLETION TIME.

wariber [46]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

During a sequential product development, each department works to complete its stage before the process continues to the next department.

A team-based new product development approach is used to develop products faster and to be able to sell them faster. This approach does not require that each department finishes its stage before passing to the next one. Instead, several departments work together simultaneously.
