Answer:

The income elasticity of demand for frozen dinners is negative when there is an increase of hourly wages. -51%

Explanation:

When the income elasticity is negative it means that the good is inferior so when the income is increased, the demand of the good decrease beacuse its demand change to a better quality good. For instance in this case a fresh meal.

income elasticity % = % change in quantity / % change in income

(((3350-3550)/3550)/((20-18)/18))*100

Alex Karev has taken out a ​$ loan with an annual rate of percent compounded monthly to pay off hospital bills from his wife​ Iz
Tom [10]

Answer:

the question is incomplete, so I looked for a similar one:

<em>Alex Karev has taken out a ​$180,000 loan with an annual rate of 11% compounded monthly to pay off hospital bills from his wife​ Izzy's illness. If the most Alex can afford to pay is ​$3,500 per​ month, how long will it take to pay off the​ loan? How long will it take for him to pay off the loan if he can pay $4,000 per​ month?</em>

PVIFA = $180,000 / $3,500 = 51.42857

PVIFA = [1 - 1/(1 + i)ⁿ ] / i = [1 - 1/(1 + 0.11/12)ⁿ] / 0.11/12

51.42857 x 0.11/12 = 1 - 1/(1 + 0.11/12)ⁿ

0.47143 = 1 - 1/(1 + 0.11/12)ⁿ

1/(1 + 0.11/12)ⁿ = 1 - 0.47143 = 0.52857

1 / 0.52857 = (1 + 0.11/12)ⁿ

1.89189 = 1.009167ⁿ

n = log 1.89189 / log 1.009167 = 0.2769 / 0.003963 = 69.87

n = 69.87 months

PVIFA = $180,000 / $4,000 = 45

PVIFA = [1 - 1/(1 + i)ⁿ ] / i = [1 - 1/(1 + 0.11/12)ⁿ] / 0.11/12

45 x 0.11/12 = 1 - 1/(1 + 0.11/12)ⁿ

0.4125 = 1 - 1/(1 + 0.11/12)ⁿ

1/(1 + 0.11/12)ⁿ = 1 - 0.4125 = 0.5875

1 / 0.5875 = (1 + 0.11/12)ⁿ

1.70213 = 1.009167ⁿ

n = log 1.70213 / log 1.009167 = 0.23099 / 0.003963 = 58.29

n = 58.29 months

Hoochie [10]

Answer: target

Explanation:

A target market are the group of customers which a business or a company directs the resources and its marketing efforts towards.

From the question above, since Millennials who patronize restaurants and other out-of-home food purveyors have become increasingly health- and nutrition-conscious, the strategy used by many fast food companies to improve the nutritional profile of their menus by adding items such as salads, fresh fruit, and plant-based meat substitutes is intended primarily to target millennial customers.

The fast food companies are aware that by adding items such as salads, fresh fruit, and plant-based meat substitutes, this may convince Millennial customers to try them out.

Therefore, the answer is option d"targets".
