Answer:

c. More items purchased when prices drop

Explanation:

Lets determine the two variables and their relation in each of the cases.

Quality decreases. Quantity purchased decreases. Both item decreasing is a positive relation and thus would not yield a negative slope.

Spending rises. Income rises. Both items increasing is a positive relation and thus would not yield a negative slope.

Purchases increase. Price decrease. One item increases while the other decreases and thus is a negative relationship with a negative slope.

Qty sold increases. Quality increases. Both items increasing is a positive relation and thus would not yield a negative slope.

Hope that helps.

Depression and sadness generally begin at the age of 12, which is directly in the middle of middle school (about 7th grade), but is much more common in 13-17 year olds. I would say high school is a better answer to this question.

Hope I'm able to help!

Race sold = $450000

cost = $330000

owned = 15%

net income = $204000

Race net income = $806000

to find out

net income attributable to the non controlling interest

solution

we find the non controlling interest

so we apply formula for non controlling interest that is

non controlling interest of income = net income × (100% - 80%)

put here value of net income

non controlling interest of income = net income × (20%)

non controlling interest of income = 204000 × (20%)

non controlling interest of income = 40800

so net income attributable to the non controlling interest is $40800
