olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

George buys 5 bags of cookies each month

Explanation:

Given

Milk = \$2 (per gallon)

Marginal\ Utility\ (milk) = 4

Cookies = \$4 (per bag)

Required

Determine the number of bags of cookies he buys

First, we need to determine the marginal utility of cookies

To solve this, we make use of the following formula:

\frac{MU\ of\ Milk}{Cost\ of\ Milk} = \frac{MU\ of\ Cookies}{Cost\ of\ Cookies}

Substitute values for

<em>MU of Milk = 4</em>

<em>Cost of Milk = 2</em>

<em>Cost of Cookies = 4</em>

<em />

This gives:

\frac{4}{2} = \frac{MU\ of\ Cookies}{2}

2 = \frac{MU\ of\ Cookies}{2}

MU\ of\ Cookies = 2 * 2

MU\ of\ Cookies = 4

From the given table:

The corresponding bags of cookies for marginal utility of 4 is 5

Hence:

George buys 5 bags

Answer:

Cultural capital

Explanation:

Cultural capital consists of knowledge about artistic trends and cultural acts that one can use to establish oneself in society, and demonstrate a particular social-standing. It also consists of tastes, preferences, and even ways of speaking, living, and moving.

The term was coined by French sociologist Pierre Bordieu. According to him, cultural capital is a form of class distinction, because the access to certain cultural products depends on variables such as race, ethnicity, income, sex, and religion.

Jim Moore opens a new savings account. He deposits $12,000 at 12% compounded semiannually. At the start of the fourth year, Jim
hjlf

Answer:$119,735.6

Explanation:

To calculate the total in the account,we use the compound interest formula

A= P ( 1+ ( R/2)/100)∧2n

P = $ 12,000 n = 4 R = 12%

A = 12,000 (1+(12/2/100)∧2*4

A = 12,000 ( 1+ ( 6)/100)∧2*4

A = 12,000 ( 1+0.06)∧8

A= 12,000 ( 1.06)∧8

A = 12,000 ( 1.5938)

A= 12,000* 1.5938

A= $ 19,125.6

Another deposit into the account

A = P ( 1+(R/2)/100)∧2n

A= 50,000 (1+12/2/100)∧2*6

A= 50,000 (1+6/100∧12

A = 50,000 ( 1+0.06)∧12

A = 50,000 (1.06)∧12

A= 50,000 ( 2.0122)

A = 50,000* 2.0122

A = 100,610

Therefore, the total in the account

$19,125.6 + $100,610

= $119,735.6

A doctor wants to estimate the hdl cholesterol of all? 20- to? 29-year-old females. how many subjects are needed to estimate the
Ira Lisetskai [31]

 

Given the following:

Sigma                                 = 17.8

E                                         = 44 points

Confidence interval        = 99% - 2.58

Confidence interval        = 95% - 1.96

In order to get the sample size, use the formula:

For 99% confidence level

n            = [ (z value x s) / E ]2

n            = [ (2.58 x 17.8) / 44]2

n            = 1. 089 or 1 (rounded up)

For 95% confidence level

n            = [ (z value x s) / E ]2

n            = [ (1.96 x 17.8) / 44]2

n            = 0.628 or 1 (rounded up)

As we decrease the confidence level, from 99% to 95%, our confidence interval gets smaller. In additional, to be more confident that our interval actually comprises the population mean we have to increase the size of the interval. To ease that trade off between level of confidence and the precision of our interval is to primarily increase the sample size.

Daniel [21]

Answer:

Letter A is correct. <u><em>Direct investment.</em></u>

Explanation:

Direct Investment or Foreign Direct Investment is defined as international investment for the purposes of creation and operations in another country. This type of investment may establish a majority or minority interest in companies that give the investor control over the operations and activities of that company.

In the case of the matter, it involves the Ford company whose direct investment was made in India to open its own business operations in India.

It is a type of complex investment, often used by companies wishing to establish a commercial presence in foreign countries, so it involves not only capital and interest, but management systems and technology.
