Answer:

the price elasticity of demand is -0.77

Explanation:

The computation of the price elasticity of demand is as follows;

= (change in quantity demanded ÷ average of quantity demanded) ÷ (percentage change in price ÷ average of price)  

Here,

Change in quantity demanded is

= Q2 - Q1

= 14 - 12

= 2

And, average of quantity demanded is

= ( 14 + 12) ÷ 2

= 13

Change in price  is

= P2 - P1

= $180 - $220

= -$40

And, average of price is

= ($180 + $220 ) ÷ 2

= 200

So, after solving this, the price elasticity of demand is -0.77

When some allocation of resources is made by the market and some is made by the government an economy is said to be a be a mixed economy.

A system that has elements of both capitalism and socialism is called a mixed economy.

A mixed economy protects private property and permits some economic freedom in the use of capital, but it also permits government intervention in the economy to further social objectives.

Neoclassical theory states that mixed economies are less effective than pure free markets, but proponents of government interventions contend that the fundamental requirements for efficiency in free markets, such as equal information and rational market participants, cannot be met in actual practice.

A mixed economy is one that is structured with a combination of free-market and socialist components and that falls somewhere on the spectrum between pure capitalism and complete socialism.

Basile [38]
The charges would be $10.50 as of the 15th of that current month. Jerrod spent a total of $700. Adjusted Balance Method calculates costs based on the amounts owed/due at the end of the current time period & once any credits or payments have been applied. Multiplying what Jerrod has spent in total & the percentage of interest will give him the balance of interest charges that he can expect to see in addition to the $700 he's spent.
It's also safe to assume the payment on your bill is due on the 16th.
