antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

The correct answer is downward sloping; downward sloping.

Explanation:

In a perfect competition the demand curve for an individual firm is a horizontal line parallel to the x axis. This happens because the firm is a price taker and operate on the price determined by the intersection of demand and supply curves. Any increase in the price will cause the demand to become zero.

While in the monopolistic market a single firm has downward sloping demand curve. Here, the firm is price maker and decides price level. Though, the consumers will demand more at lower price.

The industry supply curve for both will be downward sloping. This happens because, the firms consumers in a market will always demand more at low prices. The demand and price are inversely related.

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Consider the following calculations

Explanation:

People end up tossing 12% of what they buy at the grocery store (Reader's Digest, March, 2009). Assume this is the true population proportion and that you plan to take a sample survey of 540 grocery shoppers to further investigate their behavior.

a- Show the sampling distribution of ( p¯ ), the proportion of groceries thrown out by your sample respondents

sampling distribution of ( p¯ ) is normal with

mean = 0.12 and

standard error = sqrt(p(1-p)/n) = sqrt(0.12*0.88/540) =0.0140

b- what is the probability that the sample proportion will be within ±.03 of the population proportion?

z value for 0.03 difference, z=0.03/0.014 =2.14

The required P= P( -2.14<z<2.14) = P( z <2.14) – P( z <-2.14)

=0.9838 - 0.0162

=0.9676

c- what is the probability that your survey will provide a sample proportion within ±.015 of the population proportion?

z value for 0.015 difference, z=0.015/0.014 =1.07

The required P= P( -1.07<z<1.07) = P( z <1.07) – P( z <-1.07)

=0.8577 - 0.1423

=0.7154

d- What would be the effect of taking a larger sample on the probabilities in parts (b) and (c)? Why?

Taking a larger sample will decrease the standard error. The probabilities in parts (b) and (c) will increase.

Answer:

n = 160

p = 0.12

Explanation:

In a Binomial distribution two parameters are of great interest, n and p.

where n is the number of trials and p is the probability of success and (1 - p) is the probability of failure.

p = 12%

n = 160

Mean = E(X) = μ = n*p = 160*0.12 = 19.2

μ = 19.2

variance = σ² = np(1 - p) = 160*0.12(1 - 0.12) = 16.89

standard deviation = σ = √16.89 = 4.11

σ = 4.11

kicyunya [14]

Explanation:

Coca-Cola and General Motors are outstanding examples of using sponsorship as an effective tool to use sports to deliver cultural messages through their promotional activities sponsoring many small, regional sports teams and cultural events all around the world at schools, which goes far deeper than simply juxtaposing logos in return for investment. They have a strong history of investing their resources to create events that bring the spirit of sports to cities around the world, and support athletes and teams, connecting with teens in an interesting and fun way, so they can use their power as a brand to encourage participation in sports.

These companies are committed to providing social value through its sponsorships strategy to be measured on a much broader level that includes the positive social impact it makes and the brand associations that it brings.
