Answer:

See Below

Explanation:

Expected value is the sum of the products of the probability and payoff of each.

<u>Wager 1:</u>

probability of heads and tails, both is 0.5

Win = 440

Loose = 110

So,

Expected Value = 440(0.5) + (-110)(0.5) = 220 - 55 = $165

<u>Wager 2:</u>

Similar to wager 1

Win = 770

Loose = 220

So,

Expected value = 770(0.5) + (-220)(0.5) = 385 - 110 = $275

2nd wager is better, in this sense.

The supply curve of labor is upward sloping if:____________
horsena [70]

Answer:

Option A, “the substitution effect dominates the income effect” is correct.

Explanation:

If the real wage increases then the opportunity cost for leisure will also increase. Therefore, an increase in real wages and a rise in the opportunity cost of leisure induce labor to supply more workforce or labor force. This is known as the substitution effect. Moreover, when this substitution effect is greater than the income effect then the supply curve for labor is upward sloping.

ryzh [129]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": in both statements I and II.

Explanation:

(I) According to the demand law, <em>if the price of tea increases the quantity demanded of tea will decrease</em>. If the price of tea decreases, the quantity demanded of tea will increase. Quantity demanded and the price has an inversely proportional relationship in the demand law.

(II) When talking about complementary goods like tea and sugar, <em>if the price of tea increases will result in a negative movement along the demand curve of tea and will cause the demand curve of sugar to move inwards. In such a scenario, the demand for each good will be reduced.</em>
