Answer:

70 tickets were sold to student and 130 tickets were sold to adults

Explanation:

Let the number of tickets purchased by students be "X" and the number of tickets purchased by adults  be "Y"

Given

Total number of tickets sold = 200

Total amount collected by selling 200 tickets = 1485 dollar

Cost of one ticket of student = 4.5 dollar

Cost of one ticket of adult = 9 dollar

Two equation are as follows

X + Y = 200\\ ------Eq (1)

4.5 X + 9 Y =1485 -------- Eq (2)

Multiplying eq (1) by 9 and subtracting from equation 2 we get

4.5 X - 9 X + 9Y -9Y = 1485 - (200* 9)\\-4.5 X = -315\\X = 70

Substituting the value of X in equation 1 we get

70 + Y = 200\\Y = 200 -70 \\Y = 130

Therefore, 70 tickets were sold to student and 130 tickets were sold to adults

Estimated manufacturing overhead per the data in the question is 140 % of Direct labor cost,

Estimated manufacturing overhead is $ 262,500 * 140 % = $ 367,500

Suppose that when the price of peanut butter falls from $2 to $1 per jar, the quantity of jelly purchased rises from 14 million
yan [13]

Answer:

-0.20

Explanation:

Cross price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded of good A to changes in price of good B.

If cross price elasticity of demand is positive, it means that the goods are substitute goods.

Substitute goods are goods that can be used in place of another good.

If the cross-price elasticity is negative, it means that the goods are complementary goods.

Complementary goods are goods that are consumed together

Cross Price elasticity of demand = midpoint change in quantity demanded / midpoint change in price  

Midpoint change in quantity demanded = change in quantity demanded / average of both demands

change in quantity demanded = 16 million - 14 million = 2 million

Average = (16 million + 14 million) / 2 = 15 million

2 / 15 = 0.133

midpoint change in price = change in price / average of both price

change in price = 1 - 2 = - 1

average of price =(2 + 1) / 2 = 1.5

-1/1.5 = -0.67

0.1333 / -0.67
