Answer:

271.15

Step-by-step explanation:

     1 1

  243.75

+    27.4

___________

         271.15  

I think the reason why he thought altogether they would have 217.15 is because he probably did not align them correctly. He might have even

flip-flop the 7 and the 1.

Answer:

Yes, John is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total amount of candy you must add the amounts Sally and John have. Sally has 243.75 and John has 27.4. When you add those two together you can 217.5 which is what John thinks therefore he is correct.

What is an estimation strategy<br> This is for 6th grade math please help
Lunna [17]

Answer:

Estimation is a mental process of coming up with an answer that is relatively  close, to allow decisions to be made. The types of estimation are quantity, computation and measurement.

An estimation strategy is simply coming up with a good estimate based on evidence and already known facts. Coming to a conclusion as close to the real answer as you can. It can also be called an educated guess.

How do you do this question?
romanna [79]

Answer: B) Demand will most likely be elastic

Place yourself in the shoes of the employer. To them, demand is them needing/wanting workers. Specifically we call this "labor demand". The supply is the potential or current worker providing the service and/or making the product.

If the price goes up, then this means the worker earns higher wages. This in turn causes labor demand to fall. So the employer will be less likely to hire more workers if the wages increase. It's similar to how if the price of an item goes up in a store, then less people are probably going to buy it.

Demand is elastic because a small change in price causes a large change in demand. The company is going to be sensitive to wage changes. The company sees that it is approaching the diminishing returns, so it is likely to scale back on labor to save costs. It's all about trying to minimize costs and maximize revenue. Often, revenues can't be changed very much since customers are themselves sensitive to price changes (assuming there are substitutes in the market), so the company will turn to trying to reduce costs as much as possible leading to maximum profit.
