<span>Controls are needed in a case-controlled study because the outcome would be invalid if there were no base controls to start with. It would be like trying to determine which cancer is more aggressive but if you don't have a control in place or to go by, your research would not have any validity.</span>

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

Increase in weakly revenue = $9.8

Explanation:

Price (P) = 100, Demand or Sales N (P) = 120.

So revenue R(P) = P x N(P) = 120 x 100 = 120000

Given : 2 sales per week lost for 10 units increase in price.

New price (P') = 110 , New Demand or sales N' (P) = 118

So new revenue R' (P) = P' x N' P = 110 x 118 = 12980

Change in Total revenue due to 10 units price rise = 12980 - 120000 = 980

So, change in total revenue due to one unit price rise = 980/ 10 = 9.8

The residents of Vegopia spend all of their income on cauliflower, broccoli, and carrots. In 2016, they spend a total of $250 fo

kari74 [83]

Answer:

10%

Explanation:

Price of One Unit of Good= Total Spending ÷ Total Quantity

In 2016,

They spend a total of $250 for 100 heads of cauliflower

Price of One Unit of Cauliflower=250÷100=$2.50 per unit

$100 for 50 bunches of broccoli,

Price of One Unit of Brocolli =100÷50=$2 per unit

$250 for 500 carrots

Price of One Unit of carrot =250÷500=$0.50 per unit

In 2017,

They spend a total of $210 for 60 heads of cauliflower

Price of One Unit of Cauliflower=210÷60=$3.50 per unit

$180 for 90 bunches of broccoli,

Price of One Unit of Brocolli =180÷90=$2 per unit

$270 for 450 carrots

Price of One Unit of carrot =270÷450=$0.60 per unit

$\left\begin{array}{cccc}Year & Cauliflower & Broccoli & Carrot \\ 2016 & 2.50 & 2.00 & 0.50 \\ 2017 & 3.50 &2.00 & 0.60 \end{array} \right$

Using 2016 as the base year, the CPI for 2016 is 100,

Therefore the CPI for 2017:

$\frac{210 + 180 + 270}{250 + 100 + 250} X 100 = \frac{660}{600} X 100 =110$

Therefore the inflation rate in 2017 using the CPI is:

Inflation rate = $\frac{110-100}{100} X 100$ = 10%.
