Answer:

supply curve for electric and hybrid autos will shift rightward.

Explanation:

In Economics, there are primarily two (2) factors which affect the availability and the price at which goods and services are sold or provided, these are demand and supply.

The law of demand states that, the higher the demand for goods and services, the higher the price it would be sold all things being equal. On the other hand, law of supply states that the higher the price of goods and services, the lower the supply.

In order to understand both short-run economic fluctuations and how the economy move from short to long run, we need the aggregate supply and aggregate demand model.

In this scenario, the battery packs used in electric and hybrid automobiles are one of the largest cost components for manufacturing these cars. As the price of these batteries decline, we expect that the supply curve for electric and hybrid autos will shift rightward i.e it would increase.

In the short-run, a rightward shift in the aggregate supply (AS) curve causes output to increase and result in a price fall (lower price).

Consider a simple process where work flows from Activity A to Activity B to Activity C to Activity D. Activity A takes 3 minutes
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

The correct answer is the option B: Activity B.

Explanation:

First of all, the term <em>''bottleneck''</em> in the management area refers to the activity or process in a chain of processes that its limited capacity reduces the capacity of the chain in its whole.

Once said that, in the case presented, where there are four workers and two of them have to do two differents tasks then the activity consider the bottleneck of the process will be the one in where one person does an activity after another and that reason makes that person delates more in working. That is the case of the activity B, where Aaron has to work again after the first activity and that takes him and Betty five minutes full, while in the other case where Betty works with David they only take four minutes, so therefore that the activity B is the bottleneck of the process.

The price of a camera decreases from $200 to $180, and in response to the price change the quantity demanded increases from 60 t
bonufazy [111]

The price of a camera decreases from $200 to $180, and in response to the price change the quantity demanded increases from 60 to 70 units. Therefore, demand for cameras in this price range is inelastic.

An economic word known as "inelasticity" describes an item or service's unchanging quantity when its price varies. When prices rise, consumers' purchasing patterns essentially stay the same, and when prices fall, those same purchasing patterns still hold true. This is known as inelastic demand. When an item or service's quantity remains constant when its price increases, it is said to be "inelastic. "When a good or service's price increases or decreases, consumers' purchasing patterns essentially stay the same. The same is true when the price of the good or service decreases. The demand for an item or service that is totally inelastic would not fluctuate regardless of price; however, no such good or service exists. Elastic contrasts with inelastic.
