Answer:

False

Explanation:

The expected value of each course of action in a decision tree is not determined by starting at the beginning of the tree, instead it is a process because you need to make a desition and in some extend you espect to have some results but  some of them are uncertain or unespected. in this kind of scheme Squares represent decisions, and circles represent uncertain outcomes. Then you need to calcule the desition nodes giving each option a cost or value, This will give you a value that represents the benefit of each decision. at the end calculating choose the option that has the largest benefit, and take that as the decision made. This is the value of that decision node.

Why did the artist, Pablo Picasso, become wealthy during his lifetime and the artist, Vincent van Gogh, remain poor his entire l
Harman [31]

<u>The reason that Pablo Picasso, become wealthy during his lifetime and the artist, Vincent van Gogh, remain poor his entire life:</u>

Pablo Picasso and Vincent van Gogh had more features in common. They had unanimously indistinct style of arts which had become immediately identifiable.

In spite of all that, Picasso died as a rich man owning an estate which is estimated at nearly 750 million dollar whereas Van Gogh died as a pauper.

Studies claim that the reason behind this would be that, Van Gogh remained to be a loner and socially inactive. He was depending on his brother to meet the social world and in contrast Picasso was a charismatic active member in various social clubs where her had multiple number of contacts and connections.

It's been said that Pablo Picasso was a hub who had a vast network of social lines and Vincent Van Gogh was a silent or solitary node.

But now, the paintings of both the greatest artists were well spoken and sell for more than 100,000,000 US Dollars.

Assume that the price elasticity of demand for movie theatres is 20.85 during all evening shows but for all afternoon shows the
zalisa [80]

Answer:

d. Need more information.

Explanation:

Demand elasticity is a microeconomic concept that aims to measure the sensitivity of demand in the face of price changes.

When calculated, elasticity reaches values that signal consumers' response to price. If elasticity is a value between 0 and 1, then demand is inelastic - little sensitive to price changes. If demand is greater than 1, this means elastic - very sensitive to price changes.

The numbers presented by the question show a highly elastic demand for theater ticket prices in both cases, especially in the afternoon shift. Thus, the theater could lower the price of both, because in elastic demands, a negative variation in price will increase the demand. However, this is not enough to calculate profit maximization since the profit calculation formula also involves costs, which are not described in the question.
