<span>I believe the answer to this question is: the price elasticity of demand is 60. q = 80 - 0.5(40) is the equation I used. Half of 40 is 20, and 80 minus 20 is 60.</span>
Answer:
E) It would not necessarily be considered high elsewhere.
Explanation:
The US inflation rate during 1979 was 11.26%, during 1980 it was 13.55%, and during 1981 it was 10.33%. These numbers may seem very high for American standards, but they aren't really high once you compare them to other nation's inflation rate.
For example, if we look at what is happening in two South American countries right now; Currently Venezuela is facing a hyperinflation measured by millions, and Argentina's current inflation rate is around 60%.
Back in the 1980s, hyperinflation rates were much more common. Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Mexico, Peru and Nicaragua, all suffered from hyperinflation (inflation rates in the 1,000s).
The US dollar is considered a very stable currency, that is why an inflation rate of around 10% was considered extremely high for American standards, but not so high compared to the rest of the world.
I would say B. Quick cash loans. Interest rates are very high & not a good idea in borrowing money. They are designed for people who have poor credit ratings & have no other means to borrow money.
