The answer is b. In a table that is provided
Answer and Explanation:
An increase in the number of firms increases the demand elasticity. As the demand elasticity increases from 2 to 3 it means you could encounter less demand if product prices are increased. At a demand elasticity of -3, it is regarded as inelastic demand and a change in price will not affect the demand for the product as customers are still likely to patronize the product example gasoline. Due to its high demand, an increase in price will not readily affect the demand for it. Therefore if you are to change the price from $10 at 2 to 3 demand elasticity increase, the percentage of increase from 2 to 3 is given as.
3-2/2 X 100 = 50%
The new charge (x) at -3 demand elasticity = 50%/3 = 0.66666666
The increase in the new charge is therefore $10 + $10x = $10 + $10(0.166666) = $11.67
Answer: barter
Explanation:
Barter is an exchange system whereby money isn't used as the medium of exchange but rather, there's a direct exchange of goods or services.
From the question, we are given the information that Italy agrees to buy 5,000 cars from Comfort Cars Inc. in exchange for 5,000 barrels of oil. This shows that a barter system took place.
