Answer:Price elasticity of demand = -0.05

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand using the midpoint method= \frac{(Q2- Q1)/(Q2+Q1)/2}{(P2- P1)/(P2+P1)/2}

where  Q =Quantity demanded

P = Price

Price elasticity of demand =  (\frac{(210-190/210+190)/2}{0.90-1.10/ 0.90+1.10)/2}

 =     \frac{20/400)/2 }{ -0.2/2)/2}

0.025/ -0.05 = -0.05

Price elasticity of demand = -0.05

The Price elasticity of demand tells us how much quantity demanded changes in response to a change in price. Here the Demand for a good is  inelastic because  the PED coefficient is less than one -0.05

Answer:

Elasticity = 0.5

Explanation:

Elasticity is defined as the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price. One of the methods used to calculate it is the midpoint method.

Midpoint method uses average values to calculate the elasticity of demand of a good.

Elasticity = {(Q2 - Q1) ÷ (Q1 + Q2)/2} ÷ {(P2 - P1) ÷ (P1 + P2)/2}

Elasticity = {(210 - 190) ÷ (210 + 190)/2} ÷ {(0.9 - 1.10) ÷ (0.9 + 1.10)/2}

Elasticity = 0.1 ÷ 0.2

Elasticity = 0.5

Why is questioning such an important leadership skill?
irakobra [83]

Answer:

D. Questioning is a good way for the leader to stay in command.

Explanation:

It is known in new management jobs to panic because some would say or be open enough to feel apprehension or at worse to feel perceived as a fraud as skills are not advanced in new management jobs to full fill the criteria for a specialist role. When questioning, the process of learning by asking questions and listening. The more a manager listened, the better his or her questions became and the more they had learned. Questions also helped managers clarify their own thinking on projects, workflow, and strategies for their new unit.

How well do you ask questions? From some managers experience, most managers and leaders don't think about this issue very often. The "ability to ask questions" doesn't usually show up on any list of managerial competencies or job description requirements. However, asking questions effectively is a major component of any manager or leader's job, and asking good questions often distinguishes outstanding leaders and managers from average ones (or worse, poor ones).

Laredo advertises a reward for the return of his lost dog. Miguel, who does not know of the reward, finds and returns the dog, w
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

b. did not know of the reward when he returned the dog.

Explanation:

Laredo advertises for getting his dog back. This does not infer that the dog will only be returned when the reward will be paid.

Miguel did not know about the reward, so the reward in this case is not mandatory to be paid, but if Laredo initiates the reward himself, that can be accepted.

This is a clear demonstration of being kind and get what you know.

So if you do not know the facts, you are on fault.
