Answer:

Ms. England should buy 8 pizzas and 32 drinks.

Explanation:

Let p = the number of pizzas and d = the number of drinks.  Each pizza costs $12 so the cost of all of the pizzas is ($12)*p.  Each drink costs $0.50, so the cost of all of the drinks is ($0.50)*d.  The total cost, then, is:

 

Total Cost = Cost of Pizzas + Cost of Drinks

 

$112 = ($12)p + (($0.50)*d

 

Now you buy 4 times as many drink as pizzas, so:

 

Number of Drinks = 4 * (Number of Pizzas)

 

d = 4*p

 

Now lets' substitute 4p in place of d in the total cost equation and solve for p:

 

$112 = ($12)p + ($0.50)*d

$112 = ($12)p + ($0.50)*(4p)        [Substituted 4p in place of d]

112 = 12p + 2p

112 = 14p

 

Solve for p, the number of pizzas.  Once you have p, the number of drinks is d = 4*p.

Which of the following is the formula for the multiplier?
Goryan [66]

The formula to determine the multiplier(M) is:

M = 1 / (1 – MPC)

where:

MPC=Marginal propensity to consume

What Is a Multiplier?

A multiplier is a broad term in economics that refers to an economic factor that, when increased or changed, causes increases or changes in many other related economic variables. In terms of GDP, the multiplier effect causes total output gains to be greater than the change in spending that caused it.

Typically, the term multiplier refers to the relationship between government spending and total national income. The deposit multiplier is another multiplier used to explain fractional reserve banking.

Often the multiplier formula is considered to be too simple because it ignores some real-world complications. The Reason is:

Option A. The formula ignores the impact of an increase in GDP on consumption.

An arrow is shot from a height of 1.5 m toward a cliff of height H. It is shot with a velocity of 30 m/s at an angle of 60° abov
Aliun [14]

Known Variables:

Δy = 1.5 m

v0 = 30m/s at 60° above the horizontal.

t = 4.0 s

a. vfy = v0y + at

0 = 30sin(60) + (-9.8)t

-25.98 = -9.8t

t = 2.65.

4-2.65 = 1.35s.

Δy = v0yt + at^2/2

Δy = 25.98(2.65) + (-9.8)(2.65)^2/2

Δy = 34.44 m

1.5 + 34.44 = 35.94 m.

Δy = v0t + at^2/2

Δy = (-9.8)(1.35)^2/2

Δy = -8.93.

35.94 - 8.93 = 27.01 m.

b. vfy = v0y + at

0 = 30sin(60) + (-9.8)t

-25.98 = -9.8t

t = 2.65.

Δy = v0yt + at^2/2

Δy = 25.98(2.65) + (-9.8)(2.65)^2/2

Δy = 34.44 m

1.5 + 34.44 = 35.94 m.

vfy = v0y + at

vfy = (-9.8)(1.35)

vfy = -13.23 m/s.

I might have gone wrong somewhere so please check my answer! Cheers!
