Incomplete question:

A coffee company wants a new flavor of Cajun coffee. How many pounds of coffee worth $8 a pound should be added to 20 pounds of coffee worth $5 a pound to get a mixture worth $6 a pound?

Answer:

a = 10 pounds

Explanation:

Let , a = pounds of  $8 coffee per pound needed

$8a = cost of the $8 coffee/pound  used

20 × 5 = cost of $5/pounds coffee for 20 pounds

$100 =  cost of $5/pound coffee for 20 pounds

Rate = cost of coffee needed/ amount of pounds needed

(8a + 100)/( a + 20) = 6

cross multiply

8a + 100 = 6(a + 20)

8a + 100 = 6a + 120

8a - 6a = 120 - 100

2a = 20

divide both sides by 2

a = 20/2

a = 10 pounds

Read the graph. What is the equilibrium price?
Arisa [49]

Answer:

$1.00

Explanation:

The equilibrium price is the prevailing market price represented by the intersection of the demand and supply curve. At the equilibrium price, the quantity demanded and quantity supplied match. It means that there are no shortages or excesses in demand or supply at the equilibrium price.

From the graph, $1 is the equilibrium price. It is the intersection of demand and supply curves.

The following questions will test you on what you have just learned about sentence-level writing including dangling modifiers, i
evablogger [386]

Answer:

<h2>Sentence-level Writing</h2>

a. Dangling Modifier:

 

1.

Dangling Modifier:  When beginning the meeting

Best Revision:  2. When we were beginning the meeting, the fire alarm went off

2.

Dangling Modifier :  taking the train into Boston

Best Revision: Taking the train into Boston, Katie reviewed the meeting minutes.

b. Identifying the dependent clauses:

1. Unless he responds to my request in the next 24 hours

3. When he opened the e-mail message

c. Identifying the independent clauses:

2. Meanwhile, the executive assistant printed the agenda.

d. Identifying the sentence with the correct parallel structure:

1. The systems analyst found that we needed to upgrade our equipment, revise our backup process, and implement better security measures.

e. Best option to complete the sentence:

If you _________, you will do well in this corporation.

1. write well, speak well, and use good interpersonal skills

Explanation:

a. A phrase or clause that is not directly related to the word or words it modifies is called a dangling modifier.  Usually, the word a dangling modifier modifies may be absent from the sentence.  An example is "when beginning the meeting."  The word it modifies may be "we" as in "When we were beginning the meeting, the fire alarm went off."

b. A clause which cannot make a complete sense or sentence is called a dependent clause.  It requires another clause to make a complete sense.  The clause that makes a complete a complete sentence and can stand alone without another clause is an independent clause.

c. A sentence that has grammatical structure which is balanced is said to have parallelism.  This can also be called parallel structure or construction.  This means that the items listed follow similar pattern that rhyme with one another.  Let us revise the sentence with the wrong parallel structure in this case so as to make it become a parallelism:  "The systems analyst found that we needed upgraded equipment, revised backup processes, and better implemented security measures."  By this revision, the wrong parallel sentence now has a well-structured parallelism.

Because successive units of a good produce less and less additional satisfaction, the price must fall to encourage a buyer to pu
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

B) diminishing marginal utility

Explanation:

The law of Diminishing marginal utility states that utility falls as consumption increases.

The law of demand states that the higher the price, the lower the quantity demanded and the lower the price, the higher the quantity demanded.

Because of diminishing marginal utility, consumption can be encouraged by reducing price.

As utility falls, consumers would be unwilling to buy more goods at the same price, therefore it would be reasonable to reduce price to encourage consumption.
