Answer:

C) 0.9.

Explanation:

The calculation  of the price elasticity of demand is shown below:

Price elasticity of demand is

= (Change in quantity demanded ÷ average of quantity demanded) ÷ (Change in price ÷ average of price)

where,

q1 = 11

q2 = 9

p1 = $100

p2 = $125

So,

= {(9 - 11) ÷ (9 + 11) ÷ 2}  ÷  {($125 - $100) ÷ ($125 + $100) ÷ 2 }

= {-2 ÷ 10} ÷ {25 ÷ 112.5 }

= -0.9

= 0.9

dexar [7]

Answer:

C. biased, understating the effectiveness of the diet.

Explanation:

As the company promises the population of America which is too huge, just on the study based on 20 employees of the company itself.

This clearly means that the company is trying to sell the product with false reports as the sample size of study is to small to represent entire American Population.

Further that too the employees could be influenced to get the false results.

As since the employees could be influenced and that the results can be altered accordingly, the report is biased, and is misleading.

Rzqust [24]

Answer: He could borrow from one of the following options:

(a) $18,605

(b) $11,428

(d) $20,000

Explanation:

If Owen borrows $18,605

Bank interest rate = 7.1% of $18,605

=7.1/100 ×$18,605

=$1, 320.955

Owen's debt at his bank=

$18,605+$1,320.9555 =

$19,925.955

When Owen receives the trust fund of $25,000, he can pay his debt and still has $5,074.045 with him.

If Owen borrows $11,428

Bank interest rate = 7.1% × $11,428

=$811. 388

Owen's debt at his bank=

$811.388+$11,428 =

$12,239.388

When Owen receives the trust fund of $25,000, he can pay his debt and still has $12,760.612 left with him.

If Owen borrows $20,000

Bank interest rate =7.1% of $20,000

=7.1/100 ×$20,000

=$1, 420

Owen's debt at his bank=

$20,000 + $1,420 = $21,420

When Owen receives the trust fund of $25,000, he can pay his debt at his bank and still has $3,580 left with him.
