Answer:

He will sell 600 pizzas per week if he cuts the price by 10%.

Explanation:

Price Elasticity of demand measure the responsiveness of demand to change in the price of a product. It calculates the ratio of change in demand and change in price.

Price elasticity of demand = % change in demand / % change in price

-2 = % change in demand / 10%

% Change in in demand = -2 x 10%

% Change in in demand = -20%

Following the law of demand as price decreases the demand of the product increases. So the sale of Pizzas will be increased by 20%.

Current Sale of Pizzas = 500 pizzas

Increase in sales  = 500 x 20% = 100 pizzas

Increased sale = 500 + 100 = 600 pizzas

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Purchases:

40 units at $100·

70 units at $80·

170 units at $60

Sales for the year totaled 270 units, leaving 10 units on hand at the end of the year.

First, we need to calculate the average purchase cost.

Average cost= (100*40 + 80*70 + 60*170)/280= $70.7

Now, we can calculate the value of ending inventory:

Inventory= $70.7*10= $707

A number between 1 and 15
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

The probability is 0.20 or 20%

Explanation:

we know that

The probability of an event is the ratio of the size of the event space to the size of the sample space.  

The size of the sample space is the total number of possible outcomes  

The event space is the number of outcomes in the event you are interested in.  

so  

Let

x------> size of the event space

y-----> size of the sample space  

so

P=\frac{x}{y}

In this problem we have  that

Multiple of 5 between 1 and 15 = 5, 10,15

so

x=3

Total numbers between 1 and 15=15

so

y=15

substitute

P=\frac{3}{15}=0.20

Convert to percentage

P=0.20(100)=20\%
