The probability that a randomly selected student is female and an undergraduate = 37%

The probability of being female or an undergraduate= 1.05

<h3>The male students</h3>

The male population = 55%

Therefore female population would be 1 - 0.55 = 45%

<u>Undergraduates</u> = 60%

The male undergraduate = 38%

Therefore female undergraduates = 60%-38%

= 22%

a. The probability that a randomly selected student is an undergraduate and female

= \frac{0.22}{0.60}

= 37%

B. The probability that the student is female or undergraduate

P(A or B)

= Probability of female = 45/100

Probability of undergraduate = 60/100

= 0.45 + 0.60

= 1.05

When the price elasticity of demand for a good is very elastic, quantity demanded is _____ to a change in price and the demand c
meriva

Answer:

1. Responsive

2. Elastic

Explanation:

When the price elasticity of demand for a good is very elastic, quantity demanded is RESPONSIVE to a change in price and the demand curve is relatively ELASTIC.

This is because the price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of the quantity demanded to a change in price.

Consequently, as the quantity demanded changes, the demand curve then becomes relatively elastic, by shifting either to the right or left.

A certain city reports the following year-end total assets: General Fund $18,400,000 Library Fund (a special revenue fund) 2,900
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

B) General Fund and Library Fund

Explanation:

Major funds are those that include revenues, assets, expenditures and liabilities that account for at least 10% of all the government funds.

In this case the total government funds = $26,300,000

so 10% of total funds = $26,300,000 x 10% = $2,630,000

only the general fund ($18,400,000 ≥ $2,630,000) and the library fund (2,900,000 ≥ $2,630,000) are higher than the 10% threshold.

An increase in supply would lead to an increase in supply and a fall in price.

The combined effect would lead to an increase in equilibrium quantity but the effect on equilibrium price would be indeterminate.

elixir [45]

Answer:

The statement is true.

Explanation:

Unit elastic is described as the demand or supply curve that is perfectly responsive to the changes in the price. In other words, the demand or the quality supplied will change or vary in accordance with the same percentage as the change in price.

The curve which has elasticity of 1 will be called as unit elastic.
