You didn't put all the alternatives, but I understand economics and I know exactly that concept.

Supply price elasticity measures how price changes impact the supply of goods and services. If the elasticity of supply is elastic, it means that supply is very sensitive to price changes. If the price goes down even slightly, the supply of goods will fall sharply. If the price increases, even if little, the offer will increase much. Conversely, if supply is inelastic, price changes will have little effect on supply for the good. If the price goes down, there will be little impact on the supply of the good. If the price increases, there will also be little impact on supply.

Answer:

Each plantiff receives approximately $22.86

Explanation:

A class action lawsuit is one in which the plaintiff is a group of people, duly represented by a member of that group. In this case, the group of people is made up of 70,000 customers.

To calculate the amount each plaintiff receives, we will first subtract the legal fee from the total settlement, to obtain effective amount to be shared

Total settlement = $2,000,000

Legal Fees = $400,000

Therefore amount received all plaintiff = $2,000,000 - $400,000 = $1,600,000.

Next we will divide total amount to be shared by the number of plaintiff;

Amount each receives = $1,600,000 ÷ 70,000 = $22.857 = $22.86 (to 2 decimal places).

It is important that you know also that legal fees are amounts charge by lawyers on the settlement to be paid when filing a lawsuit. it is usually set as a certain percentage of the settlement amount to be paid.

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

Let's assume that "X" be the number of employees in 2000.

∵ it's given :

From 2000 to 2003: the number of employees increased by a factor of 1/4

From 2003 to 2006: the number of employees decreased by a factor of 1/3

∴ We can equate the following details:

X×(increase in employee)×(decrease in employee) = 100

X×(1+\frac{1}{4})×(1-\frac{1}{3}) = 100  

X×(\frac{5}{4})×(\frac{2}{3}) = 100  

X×(\frac{10}{12}) = 100  

X = 100×(\frac{12}{10})  

<em>X = 120  </em>

<u><em>Therefore, the correct option is (b)</em></u>
