Answer:

new corn farmers will enter the market and decrease the market price.

Explanation:

In regards to the information provided, it can be said that in a long term perspective if the production of ethanol keeps increasing then new corn farmers will enter the market and decrease the market price. This is because as ethanol production increases, so does the price of corn. This will continue up to a certain point were profitability for farmers is high and many new farmers will enter the market hoping to profit from the corn as well. All these new farmers will drastically increase the production of corn and as the supply of corn rises the prices will begin to fall.

Suppose a tire manufacturer wants to set a mileage guarantee on its new XB 70 tire. Tests revealed that the tire's mileage is no
kogti [31]

Answer:

The manufacturer should announce a guaranteed mileage of 44528 miles

Explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 47900, \sigma = 2050

What guaranteed mileage should the manufacturer announce

Only until the 5th percentile will have to be replaced, which is the value of X when Z has a pvalue of 0.05. So it is X when Z = -1.645.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

-1.645 = \frac{X - 47900}{2050}

X - 47900 = -1.645*2050

X = 44528

The manufacturer should announce a guaranteed mileage of 44528 miles

Answer: Limited liabilities and partnerships

Explanation:

Limited liabilities mean that the partners within the firm are only liable to pay off their debts with the amount they had invested as capital in the company. Partnership is an agreement between certain number of partners to share the profit and loss of the company. In this case since there is a 50/50 allocation of profits and there are only 2 partners therefore, this is a limited liability partnership.
