Answer:

The canoeing speed is 8mi/h and the stream speed is 2mi/h.

Explanation:

Being Vc the speed of canoing and Vs the speed of the stream wmi/e have that

\left \{ {{ Vc - Vs = 30mi / 5hr } \atop {Vc + Vs = 30mi /3hs}} \right.

then

\left \{ {{ Vc - Vs = 6mi/h } \atop {Vc + Vs = 10mi/h}} \right.

using the first equation of the system we have that

Vc  = 6mi/h +Vs

replacing

6mi/h+Vs+Vs = 10mi/h

2Vs = 4mi/h

Vs = 2mi/h

then going back

Vc = 6mi/h + 2mi/h = 8 mi/h

The returns of a capital amount to a compensation rate for depositing the money, to calculate these returns an interest rate is used by which the deposited capital is multiplied, in this case the rate is 4%.

As the money distributed is only the product of interest, then that money is the result of multiplying the capital by the interest rate, to obtain how much money Mr. Jefferson contributed, the reverse process will have to be done.

Answers

let <em>C</em> be the capital, then :

C\times4 \%  = 170500\\C\times\frac{4}{100}= 170500\\C=170500\times\frac{100}{4}\\C=4262500

The capital contributed by Mr. Jefferson was <em>$4,262,500</em>

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

B) diminishing marginal utility

Explanation:

The law of Diminishing marginal utility states that utility falls as consumption increases.

The law of demand states that the higher the price, the lower the quantity demanded and the lower the price, the higher the quantity demanded.

Because of diminishing marginal utility, consumption can be encouraged by reducing price.

As utility falls, consumers would be unwilling to buy more goods at the same price, therefore it would be reasonable to reduce price to encourage consumption.
