How do you accept criticism
ZanzabumX [31]
Criticism can be looked at in many different perspectives. Criticizing on one subject by looks may not bother you, but criticism about your athletic ability might make you feel negative about yourself. For me personally, I attempt to ignore the criticism and if not I express it to my friends.

The Johnson Family is looking to buy a new house on Belmont Road. Their insurance deductible is increased by $500 if they live m
user100 [1]

Answer:

a) Absolute Value Inequality => Absolute(0 + y) < 2

b) -2 < y < 2

Which means, Johnson Family has to live within the range of -2 to +2 from the fire department. Otherwise, they will have to pay 500 USD as increased deductible.

Explanation:

<u><em>Johnson Family has to live within the range of -2 to +2 from the fire department. </em></u>

<em>a) Absolute Value Equation:</em>

Absolute(0 + y) < 2

where y represent the location of the new house and 0 represents the location of the fire department.

Furthermore,

<em>Absolute(0 + y) < 2 = (0 + x) < 2 when (0 + y) is +ve. </em>

and

<em>Absolute(0+y) <2 =  -(0 + x) < 2 when (0 + y) is -ve. </em>

b) When (0 + y) is +ve,

we have,  (0 + y) < 2.

<em>Solving for y and subtracting 0 from both sides. </em>

0-0 + y < 2 - 0

<em>y < 2</em>

and when (0 + y) is -ve,

<em>we have, - (0 + y) < 2. </em>

Solving for y:

- 0 - y < 2

multiplying negative from both sides

<em>y > - 2</em>

<em>So, we have -2 < y < 2 </em>

<em>Johnson Family has to live within the range of -2 to +2 from the fire department. Otherwise, they will have to pay 500 USD as increased deductible. </em>

For most normal goods the income effect and the substitution effect work in the same direction; so when the price of a good fall
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

The income effect and substitution effect work in opposite directions and income effect is dominant.

Explanation:

In case of a normal good, both the income effect as well as substitution effect work in the same direction. A fall in the price of a product will increase the purchasing power of the consumer so its quantity demanded will increase.  

The consumers will also prefer the cheaper good so the substitution effect will cause the quantity demanded to increase.  

In case of an inferior good, however, income elasticity is negative. The income effect and substitution effect work in opposite directions.  

A price decrease in the case of an inferior good will increase the real income and purchasing power of the consumer. This will cause the quantity demanded of the inferior good to decline as the consumer will prefer a substitute normal good.
