Answer:
<u></u>
- <u>1. The slope is negative</u>
- <u>2. The demand decreases when the prices increase.</u>
Explanation:
<em>Describe the slope of the demand curve?</em>
<em>The slope of the demand curve</em> is negative.
The demand curve is graphed on a coordinate plane with the price in the horizontal axis (typically the x-axis) and the demand on the vertical axis (y-axis).
Thus, the slope will be the rate of change of the demand over the change on the price.
Mathematically:
Since, as you move from left to right, on the x-axis, the prices increase, and the demand (on the y-axis) lowers, the change in demand is negative and the change in the prices is positive, resulting in a negative slope.
This is seen graphycally because the demand curve is decreasing (downward-sloping).
<em>How does the slope reflect the law of demand?</em>
The slope reflects perfectly <em>the law of demand</em> because the law of demand states that, since the resources are scarce, when the prices incrases the quantities demanded decrease.
Answer:
C) violated the Sixth Amendment right to a jury trial.
Explanation:
Federal Sentencing Guidelines should be guided by the following principles:
- The court should order the organization to remedy any harm caused.
- If the primary purpose of the organization was to commit crimes, then the court should set a fine that strips away all the assets from the organization.
- The court should set fines based on how serious the offenses were and the degree of culpability of the organization.
-
The court can impose a probation sentence if it believes that the organization will take steps to reduce the likelihood of future criminal conduct.
The sentencing guidelines should offer incentives for organizations to eliminate criminal conduct.

Answer:
GDP grew by $2,200
Explanation:
G<em>ross domestic product (GDP) which is the total market value of all the final goods and services produced in a country over a given period of time. The GDP can be calculated using the value added approach.</em>
Here the GPD figure is ascertained by summing the amount of additional value created by each factor of production at each stage of the production process of the final product.
<em>Only the values added are summed, the cost of the inputs or intermediate goods are not included</em>
<em>In this question, the final value of $2200 represents the amount by which the GDP has increased in the period. This also can be verified using the value-added approach as follows</em>
Value added($)
Gold miner - 600
Mining company : 1000 -600 = 400
Jewerlry maker :1600 - 1000 = 600
Departmental store :2200 -1600 = <u>600</u>
Total value added <u>2,200</u>
