$A=(0,1); B=( \frac{1}{2}, 0) \\ 
y=ax+b
 
\left \{ {{1=0a+b} \atop {0= \frac{1}{2}+b }} \right. \\ 
 \left \{ {{1=b} \atop { \frac{1}{2}a=-b}} \right. \\ 
 \left \{ {{b=1} \atop {a=-2}} \right. 

y=-2x+1$

For a horizontal demand curve

kkurt [141]

Answer:

d. both the slope and price elasticity of demand are equal to 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to graph the demand curve, the quantity demanded is plotted along x-axis and the price is plotted along y-axis. An image attached below shows the horizontal demand curve.

Horizontal demand curve, as its name indicates, is a horizontal line which is parallel to x-axis. Since, the slope of any line parallel to x-axis is 0, we can conclude that the slope of Horizontal demand curve is 0.

A horizontal demand curve can be observed for a perfectly competitive market. Since, its a perfect competition, the price of a product by all competitors will be the same. In this case, if a firm decides to increase the price, he will loose his market share as no customer will buy the product at increased price. They will rather go with the other competitor who is offering a similar product at lower price.

On the other hand, if a competitor decides to lower his price in such case, he will experience loss. Therefore, the competitors do not have the option to change the price. Therefore, we can say the price elasticity of demand in this case is 0.

So, option D describes the horizontal demand curve correctly.

If BY = 6, YC = 10, AX = 18, then XC = a: 10.8 b:5 c:30 d:48

vampirchik [111]

To answer this item, we assume that the topic is in similar polygons such that the ratio of the corresponding sides should be equal. In this item,

BY/YC = AX/XC

Substituting the known values,

6/10 = 18/XC

The value of XC from the equation is 30. The answer is letter C.

Answer the following 4 questions CORRECTLY I will know if this is wrong. I WILL REPORT ANY INCORRECT ANSWERS!

Shkiper50 [21]

1. A) 5 (It would be B. because it does equal 4.09 but it has to be 5 because it is the greatest integer in all of them)

2. D) 10 (Just like 1. it would be B. also BUT 10 is the greatest integer you can have out of all of them)

3. A) 6 (Just like the other 2 problems at the top^ it would be C. if not for the fact it has a higher number.)

4. A) A value we can put in place of a variable (such as x) that makes the equation true.
