Answer:-2

explanation:

substitute - 4 into q(x)

$- 4 = \frac{1}{2} x - 3$

Add three on both sides

$- 1 = \frac{1}{2} x$

Multiply both sides by...

$\frac{2}{1}$

$- 2 = x$

Which of the following would be an example of the Coase Theorem? A. The county commission agrees to a town meeting to hear conc

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Coase Theorem says that any externality can be dismantled no matter who is ultimately compensated. The theorem mainly concerns compensation for pollution of foreign property, and states that, provided certain conditions are met, negotiation can lead to Pareto's optimal outcome.

Ronald Coase came up with the idea when looking for a way to allocate broadcast frequencies as efficiently as possible to individual radio stations. Competing radio stations could not agree on which radio frequency to choose, and if more than one of them was broadcasting on the same frequency, there was mutual interference. Coase noted that, despite the lack of state regulation to ensure a fair allocation of radio frequencies, the market is able to deal with this problem as follows: Radio stations that have sought to increase their economic profits by broadcast on an exclusive frequency, they were willing to pay their competitors to switch to another radio frequency without interrupting their transmission.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

2/3(6h - 9) = 6

Step 2: Solve for h

[Division Property of Equality] Divide 2/3 on both sides: 6h - 9 = 9
[Addition Property of Equality] Add 9 on both sides: 6h = 18
[Division Property of Equality] Divide 6 on both sides: h = 3

At the coffee shop, two coffees and one latte cost $10.50. Three coffees and two lattes cost $17.00. What is the cost of one cof

EastWind [94]

To solve this problem, we can set two equations.

Let x be the cost of coffee and y be the cost of latte.

Two coffees and one latte: 2x + y = 10.50

y=10.50 - 2x ...(1)

Three coffees and two lattes: 3x + 2y = 17.00...(2)

Put (1) into (2), we have:

3x + 2(10.50-2x) = 17.00

3x + 2(10.50) - 2(2x) = 17.00

3x + 21 - 4x = 17

Put the unknown to one side:

3x -4x = 17 - 21

-x = -4

When there are negative numbers on both sides, we can take the negative signs away:

x= 4

Therefore, cost of one coffee is A. $4.00.

Hope ot helps!
