The loose fitting skin is one of the defining characteristic of the amphibians in which the toad, frog and almost any other creature in between belong. Some of the many useful and sophisticated purpose of this are: (1) helping with respiration, (2) prevention of hydration loss, (3) easy locomotion. This enables the animals to easily adapt to the environment once it shifts to the land from the water bodies.
Answer and Explanation:
The calculations are shown below:
1) 4
is choosen because the marginal utility should be less than the marginial cost and if he choose beyong this point, the cost of the drink is more than the willingness to pay
2) The consumer surplus is
= (5 - 1.5) + (4 - 1.5) + (3 - 1.5) + (2 - 1.5)
= 8
3) Total surplus decreases to
= Consumer surplus - external cost
= 8 - 4
= 4
4) Cindy's Consumer surplus is
= (5 - 1.5) + (4 - 1.5) + (3 - 1.5)
= 7.5
5) Increases
6) 8 - 7.5 = 0.5
7) Consumption = 3 bottles
8) Consumer surplus is
= (5 - 2.5) + (4 - 2.5) + (3 - 2.5)
= 4.5
9) External cost = 3 × 1 = 3 bottle
10) Government revenue = 3 × 1 = 3 bottle
11) Total surplus is
= Consumer surplus - external cost + government revenue
= 4.5 - 3 + 3
= 4.5
12) would
13) increases
Answer:
<h3>Seeking the 'right' answer.</h3>
Explanation:
Roger von Oech established 10 mental locks or barriers which hinder an individual's creativity. He stresses the need to unlock or remove these locks and barriers in order to enhance one's creativity.
According to the instance given in the question, 'trying to seek the right answer' would be the barrier that may hinder the creativity of a student. In most educational institutes, the need to answer or find the correct answer is being emphasized and encouraged.
This attitude or method of solving problems usually subdues creativity within a student. This is because there is less encouragement in finding alternative solutions. It does not emphasize on other options or possibilities. Rather it focuses only on finding the 'right' answer.
Answer:
The GDP in this economy is $6,230 billion.
Explanation:
The GDP can be calculated using the following formula:
Y = C + I + G + (X - M) ....................................... (1)
Where:
Y = GDP of the economy
C = Personal Consumption Expenditures = $4,500
I = Gross Private Domestic Investment = $800
G = Government Purchases = $950
X = Exports = $65
M = Imports = $85
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
Y = $4,500 + $800 + $950 + ($65 - $85)
Y = $6,250 - $20
Y = $6,230
Since the figures are in billions of dollars, the GDP in this economy is therefore $6,230 billion.
