Answer:

The corm farmers should reduce or decrease the number of acres on which they plant the corn. Therefore, the correct answer is C

Explanation:

The demand for the product is inelastic which means it is a situation or scenario in which the demand of the product does not increase or decrease likewise with rise or fall in the price of the product.

In order to increase the aggregate revenue on the product (corn) whose revenue is inelastic, the farmers should decrease the number of acres on which they grow or plant the corn.

James owns a vacant property. By law, he can build the following building types, which generate a return on investment as listed
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Office building

Explanation:

The formula to compute the return on investment is shown below:

Return on investment = Operating Income ÷ Average Operating Assets

It is a mix of operating income and the average operating assets through the return on investment could be computed

Since the return on investment is already given in the question

And, the higher return on investment is the best one for property use

So the office building has a higher return on investment i.e 13.5% which reflects the best for property usage.

A point M on a segment with endpoints (-1, 1) and ( 7, 7) partitions the segment in a 3:5 ratio. Find M. You must show all work
HACTEHA [7]

The coordinates of point M after the partition is (2, 3.25).

<h3>What are coordinates and how to determine coordinates?</h3>
  • A coordinate system in geometry is a system that uses one or more integers, or coordinates, to define the position of points or other geometric components on a manifold such as Euclidean space.

We have:

  • Endpoints = (-1,1) and (7,7)
  • Ratio, m : n = 3 : 5

The coordinates of point M is then calculated using:

M=\frac{1}{m+n} *(mx_{2}+nx_{1} , my_{2} +ny_{1} )

So, we have:

M=\frac{1}{3+5} * (3*7+5*-1,3*7+5*1)

Evaluate the sum and the product:

M=\frac{1}{8} *(16,26)

Evaluate the product:

M=(2,3.25)

The coordinates of point M is (2, 3.25)

Therefore, the coordinates of point M after the partition is (2, 3.25).

Imagine that to preserve the traditional way of life in small fishing villages, a government decides to impose a price floor tha
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

As a result of the price floor, price would increase. As a result, quantity demanded will decrease and the quantity supplied would increase.

Supply would exceed demand and as a result there would be an excess supply of fish.  

As an alternative to the price floor, the government can subsidise the cost of fishing. This would reduce the cost of producing fish

Explanation:

A price floor is when the government or an agency of the government sets the minimum price of a product. A price floor is binding if it is set above equilibrium price.
