Answer:

The slope of indifference curve is 7.

Explanation:

The marginal utility of good Y = 2X^2

The marginal utility of good X = 4XY

Given Y = 7

X = 2

The slope of the indifference curve is otherwise termed as the marginal rate of substitution. So, we can find the slope by dividing the marginal utility of Y by the marginal utility of X.

Slope = MUx / MUy

= 4XY / 2X^2

= 4Y / 2X

Now insert the value of X and Y.

= (4×7) / (2×2)

= 28/4

= 7  

Hence the slope of the indifference curve is 7.

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

It does not

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to evaluate if a particular transaction carried out between a customer and an inn falls within the dictates of the local consumer protection law in the state.

Firstly, we look at what the local consumer protection law of the state talks about. It explicitly stated that customers should get receipts when suppliers receive deposits from them. Thus, this make the receipt act as the first thing to have if there would be any claim under the consumer protection law for the transaction carried out in the state.

Now, looking at the particular scenario we have, the customer paid for the room, but he was not issued a receipt. This makes the case not treatable within the consumer protection law of the state as the receipt which should have been a prerequisite for further exploration is not available

Each week a soft drink machine sells x cans of soda for $0.75/soda. The cost to the owner of the soda machine for each soda is $
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

$34.8

Explanation:

Profits = sales - costs( variable costs +fixed costs)

In this case : total sales will be price $0.75 x units sold X= 0.75X

Variable costs : =$10 x units sold= $10x

Fixed cost remain $25 as they are not affected by quantity.

profits for the Week

P= (0.75x- 0.10x)-$25

Profit for the week with units sold as 92: x = 92

p= ( {0.75x92} - {0.10x92} )- $25

P= $69 - $9.2- $25

P=$59.8- $25

   =$34.8
