Why does the government charge high taxes on gasoline?

2 answers:

7 0

Answer: These taxes are meant to do two things — raise money to pay for infrastructure and reflect some of the environmental costs of driving. Unlike most taxes, gas taxes are charged as a flat charge per liter, rather than as a percentage of the pump price.

Answer:

Every time you top off your vehicle at the pump, you're paying federal and state gas taxes that are included in the price of every gallon of gasoline. The federal tax, at 18.4 cents per gallon, is meant to help the federal government pay to build and fix things like highways and bridges.

I have 2 answers in mind

Answer #1:

$\frac{y}{z}$

Step-by-step explanation:

quotient means the answer to 2 things being divided so the quotient of y and z would be $\frac{y}{z}$ because there is no numerical value.

Answer #2:

Step-by-step explanation:

Usually, when a letter is left by itself in an equation it usually has an invisible one in front of it. so when dividing y by z it would equal 1/1 which is equal to one.

Hope this helps :)

The fitted regression is Sales = 832 − 28.2 Price. (a-1) If Price = 1, what is the prediction for Sales? (Round your answer to 1

almond37 [142]

Answer:

Part (a-1): The prediction for Sales is 803.8.

Part (a-2): The correct option is: An increase in price decreases sales.

Part (B): The prediction for sales is 211.66

Part (C): The intercept is meaningful as sales will be maximized when price is zero.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided regression:

Sales = 832 − 28.2 Price

(a-1) If Price = 1, what is the prediction for Sales?

Substitute Price = 1 in above regression.

Sales = 832 − 28.2 (1) = 803.8

Hence, the prediction for Sales is 803.8.

Sales (a-2) Choose the correct statement.

Here we can observe that as we increase the price, sales decrease.

Thus, the correct option is: An increase in price decreases sales.

(b) If Price = 22, what is the prediction for Sales?

Substitute Price = 22 in above regression.

Sales = 832 − 28.2 (22)

Sales = 832 − 620.4

Sales = 211.66

Hence, the prediction for sales is 211.66

Sales (c) Choose the right option.

As we increase the price, sales decrease that means the sales will be maximum if the price is 0.

The intercept is meaningful as sales will be maximized when price is zero.

we know that

total of sum of arc is 360

so, sum of both arc must be 360

so, we get

$90+x=360$

now, we can solve for x

$90+x-90=360-90$
