Elasticity of demand measures the sensitivity of the quantity demanded to changes in price of the things demanded. If it is inelastic then it does not respond to price change much. If it is elastic then it responds to price change a lot. Hope this helps understand elasticity of demand of the economy!

Distributing Cash Dividends to Preferred and Common Shareholders Dechow Company has outstanding 20,000 shares of $50 par value,

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Preferred Stock = $60,000 and $3.00

Common Stock = $100,000 and $1.25

Explanation:

Dividends

Preferred Stock has preference when it comes to dividends payments. The remaining dividends are then paid to Common Stockholders.

Preferred Stock dividend = 20,000 x $50 x 6% = $60,000

Common Stock dividend = $160,000 - $60,000 = $100,000

Dividends per share

Preferred Stock dividend = $60,000 ÷ 20,000 shares = $3.00

Common Stock dividend = $100,000 ÷ 80,000 shares = $1.25

Write a ratio for the situation in three ways, comparing the first quantity to the second quantity. a zoo has 14 monkeys and 18

elixir [45]

Answer:

1)14 to 28

14:28

14/28

2) 1 to 9

1:9

1/9

3) 3 equivalent ratios are : 2/18,1/9, 3/27

4) On this case would be 12/36 and if we divide numerator and denominator by 6 we got 2/6, and if we divide by 2 we got 1/3 simplified

Explanation:

Previous concepts

A ratio represent "the relative sizes of two or more values."

"Ratios can be shown in different ways:

• using the ":" to separate example values

• using the "/" to separate one value from the total

• as a decimal, after dividing one value by the total

• as a percentage, after dividing one value by the total"

Part 1

14 monkeys and 18 chimpanzees.

And we need to write the situation in 3 ways comapring the first quantity to the second quantity, and the correct way to do this is:

14 to 28

14:28

14/28

Part 2

In largo city, about one in every nine homes contains four televisions

And we need to write the situation in 3 ways comapring the first quantity to the second quantity, and the correct way to do this is:

1 to 9

1:9

1/9

Part 3

Write three ratios equal to 4/36

On this case is we divide numerator and denominator by 2 we got 2/18

And if we divide the numerator and denominator by 4 we got 1/9

and if we divide the numerator and denominator by 4 and then we multiply by 3 we got 3/27

So then 3 equivalent ratios are : 2/18,1/9, 3/27

Part 4

Jake sold 36 tickets to the school fair Jeanne sold 12 tickets. What is the ratio, in simplest form, of the number of tickets Jeanne sold to the number of tickets Jake sold?

On this case would be 12/36 and if we divide numerator and denominator by 6 we got 2/6, and if we divide by 2 we got 1/3 simplified

If food you are reheating for hot holding doesn’t reach 165 degrees within 2 hours what must you do?

DochEvi [55]

If food one is reheating for hot holding doesn't reach 165 degrees within 2 hours; Immediately start the reheating process over again.

<h3>Reheating for hot holding;</h3>

Keeping hot foods ready to serve to the public is simply termed “hot holding”. Hot holding stops germs from growing when food is kept at hot temperatures. This is in line with public safety guidelines and lowers the risk that someone will get sick from eating food.

However, If food you are reheating for hot-holding doesn’t reach 165 degrees within 2 hours; Then, the reheating process is inadequate and one must immediately start the reheating process over again.
