Answer:

Correct option: (A) 43.48% fall in the price of a ticket.

Step-by-step explanation:

The price elasticity of demand is defined as the percent change in quantity demanded to the percent change in the price.

Price\ elasticity\ of\ demand=\frac{\%\ change\ in\ quantity\ demanded}{\%\ change\ in\ price}

Given:

Price elasticity of demand = 0.23

% change in quantity demanded = 10

Compute the % change in price as follows:

Price\ elasticity\ of\ demand=\frac{\%\ change\ in\ quantity\ demanded}{\%\ change\ in\ price}\\0.23=\frac{10}{\%\ change\ in\ price}\\{\%\ change\ in\ price}=\frac{10}{0.23}\\=43.4783\\\approx43.48

Thus, a 10 percent increase in attendance can be explained by a 43.48% fall in the price of a ticket.

Mrrafil [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

8 vehicle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Monthly salary of salesperson is $2400

          Incentive of salesperson is $250 per vehicle sold.

First, lets compute income to earned apart from salary.

∴ Deduct salary from the target amount

\$ 4400-\$ 2400= \$ 2000$4400−$2400=$2000

∴ 2000 need to be earned only through incentive, which is2000needtobeearnedonlythroughincentive,whichis250 per vehicle sold.

Now, solving to get number vehicles to be sold to earn $2000 as incentive.

Number of vehicle= \frac{2000}{250}= 8\ vehicles2502000=8 vehicles

∴ 8 vehicles need to be sold by salesperson to get total earning as $4400

A. 3/13<br><br> B. 10/39<br><br> C. 5/12<br><br> D. 8/13
ELEN [110]
The equation to find P(A and B) is P(A and B)= P(A) x P(B/A). P(B/A) stands for probability of B given A. First we need to find out the P(A). The P(A) is 8/13 because you have 13 marbles total and 8 white marbles. For P(B/A), it is 5/12. This is because there are 5 red marbles and given that A happened, there would only be 12 marbles left in the bag, leaving you with a 5/12 chance of getting a red marble. Now plug it in. 8/13 x 5/12 = 40/156, which simplifies down to 10/39. Thus, B is the answer.
