Tony notes that an electronics store is offering a flat $20 off all prices in the store. Tony reasons that if he wants to buy so

mething with a price of $50, then it is a good offer, but if he wants to buy something with a price of $500, then it is not a good offer. This is an example of: the proper application of the Cost-Benefit Principle. inconsistent reasoning because prices are sunk costs. rational choice because saving 40% is better than saving 4%. inconsistent reasoning; saving $20 is saving $20.

Answer:

inconsistent reasoning; saving $20 is saving $20.

Step-by-step explanation:

When we buy something for $ 50 we save $ 20 which is

20/50 * 100= 2/5* 100= 0.4*100= 40 %

When we buy something for $ 500 and save $ 20 it means that we are saving

20/500 * 100= 2/50* 100= 0.04*100= 4 %

Now if we compare 40 % to 4 % we can ourselves see that there is a difference of 36 % which is large enough to drop out the high priced items.

There is inconsistent reasoning for discount pricing.

So it is  inconsistent reasoning;   that only $ 20 can be saved on all items no matter what the prices are .

The offer is beneficial for only good for low priced items.

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer: They are away for 2\dfrac{3}{4}\ hours from home.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Time to get there = \dfrac{1}{4}

Time to get back = \dfrac{1}{4}

Number of soccer games = 3

Time for each soccer games = \dfrac{3}{4}

So, total time for 3 games would be

3\times \dfrac{3}{4}=\dfrac{9}{4}

So, the time for which they will be away from home is given by

\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{9}{4}+\dfrac{1}4}=\dfrac{1+9+1}{4}=\dfrac{11}{4}=2\dfrac{3}{4}\ hours

Hence, they are away for 2\dfrac{3}{4}\ hours from home.

For this i would use the equation of a cylinder to find the surface area and the equation would be 2(3.14)1.5(7) + 2(3.14)1.5 = 75.36 and you would want to wrap it in something bigger than the vase itself so the best answer would be 80.11 inches squared

Math <br> rate of change and show me how u did it:( &lt;3
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

y = m x + b   equation for a straight line

if x = o then y = 4 from graph

y = 0 + 4            and b = 4

If x = 8 then y = 24 from graph

24 = m * 8 + 4      substituting in our equation

m = 20 / 8 = 2.5      giving slope or rate of change

y = 2.5 x + 4     the final equation with a slope of 2.5

As a check using the graph:

We see that if y = 24 then x = 8

24 = m * 8 + 4      substituting in our equation

m = 20/8 = 2.5 agreeing with the value found
