Answer:
equation will be 2x+5
Explanation:
We have given the cost of shipping box = $5
Flat packing fee = $5
As given, the cost of shipping a box is based on its weight in pounds so it is variable
And a flat rate of $5 for packing. This means $5 is common for each parcel that will be sent. Only the weight will vary.
So the equation will be 2x+5
Answer: P =$50
Q= 25
Explanation: P= 100-2Q
P= 2Q
To get the quantity supplied Q, we have to educate both equations
100-2Q=2Q, 100=2Q+2Q
100=4Q, Q=100/4 , Q=25
To get the equilibrium price we have to substitute the value of Q which is 25 into any of the equation.
Using equation 1
P=100-2Q, P=100-2(25)
P=100-50, P=$50.
If the price is controlled at $60, then the production pays the producer this is because a commodity is not expected to be sold at the equilibrium price, price flooring is a way that government or a group control the market price of a commodity or produce by imposing a particular price on it. This is to ensure that the producers are not at loss with their production, a price floor is always higher than the equilibrium price to be effective as seen in the example given above, price floor is $60 while equilibrium price is $50.
An example of a price floor for services can be seen in the minimum wage stated by the government this is to ensure that people's services are not misused anyhow.
Price flooring most times can lead to surplus quantity produced if consumers are not willing to pay the price, because the producer will be wiling to produce more in order to make more profit.
Answer:
There is no short answer.
Explanation:
We are given an article that presents a study that suggests adults who played varsity sports in high school have a 20% higher chance of earning a bachelor's degree in college than the ones who did not play during high school.
The outcome variable in this example, which is also the same as a dependent variable, is the chance of graduating from college with a bachelor's degree, which depends on whether that person played varsity sports during their high school years or not.
The treatment variable in this example, which is also the same as an independent variable, is whether the subject played varsity sports in high school or not which affects their chances of graduating from college with a bachelor's degree.
Counterfactual means thinking about an event in a way that did not actually happen, counter to the facts and it helps people feel more in control which in turn provides a psychological soothing effect. Counterfactual scenario in the given example for high school athletes would be not being able to earn a bachelor's degree despite having played sports in high school.
Thinking about the counterfactual scenario is important because it helps people get a sense of power and a feeling of control which is a primal instinct the brain needs to feel safe.
I hope this answer helps.
