Answer:

In order for an equation to be linear, both the x and the y must have a degree of one, and they can only be added or subtracted, not multiplied or divided. Therefore xy = 12 is nonlinear.

What is the value of x?

Kamila [148]

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sin \: 45 \degree = \frac{BC}{6 \sqrt{2} } \\ \\ \frac{1}{ \sqrt{2} } = \frac{BC}{6 \sqrt{2} } \\ \\ BC = 6 \\ \\ \cos \: 60 \degree = \frac{x}{BC } \\ \\ \frac{1}{2} = \frac{x}{6 } \\ \\ x = \frac{6}{2} \\ \\ x = 3$

John Doe estimates that the price elasticity of demand for new SUVs to be 0.75. If the price of SUVs rose by 15%; would the quan

Charra [1.4K]

If the coefficient of demand for the SUV is 0.75 this means that it has a relatively inelastic demand since it is less than. In other words, there is only a little alteration in demand when prices change.
So when the price of SUV rise by 15%, and it has a coefficient of 0.75, we can anticipate only 11.25% decrease in its demand. This is for the reason that the SUVs do not have many substitutes for it.
So to solve:
(x/15%) = 0.75
Then simply solve for x:
x = (0.75)(0.15) = 11.25%
