Ethan enjoys buying books and going to the movies. He has income of $150 to spend on these two goods each month. The price of a

erica [24]

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

A.) the substitution effect would predict Ethan would consume less books and more movies and the income effect would predict he would consume less of both.

B.) the substitution and income effects would both predict Ethan would consume less of both goods.

C.) the substitution effect would predict Ethan would consume more books and less movies, and the income effect would predict he would consume less of both.

D.) the substitution and income effects would both predict Ethan would consume more of both goods.

If he continuos to buy 4 books ans 6 movies the total amount is $170, that he does not have. He has to buy less books or go less to the movies.

A global efect of a certain good (X) price rise can be divided into 2 efects:

substitution effect: indicates a demand reduction of X, resulting from the price rise, making X less atractive to consumption
income effect: indicates a reduction of the demanded quantity of X resulting from the reduction of the acquisition power created by the rise of X price.

So, answer is A.

Given: The coordinates of triangle PQR are P(0, 0), Q(2a, 0), and R(2b, 2c).

masha68 [24]

Answer:

The line containing the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side ⇒ proved down

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise the rules of the midpoint and the slope to prove the

problem

- The slope of a line whose endpoints are (x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) is

$m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

- The mid-point of a line whose endpoints are (x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) is

$(\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2},\frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2})$

* Lets solve the problem

- PQR is a triangle of vertices P (0 , 0) , Q (2a , 0) , R (2b , 2c)

- Lets find the mid-poits of PQ called A

∵ Point P is (x1 , y1) and point Q is (x2 , y2)

∴ x1 = 0 , x2 = 2a and y1 = 0 , y2 = 0

∵ A is the mid-point of PQ

∴ $A=(\frac{0+2a}{2},\frac{0+0}{2})=(\frac{2a}{2},\frac{0}{2})=(a,0)$

- Lets find the mid-poits of PR which called B

∵ Point P is (x1 , y1) and point R is (x2 , y2)

∴ x1 = 0 , x2 = 2b and y1 = 0 , y2 = 2c

∵ B is the mid-point of PR

∴ $B=(\frac{0+2b}{2},\frac{0+2c}{2})=(\frac{2b}{2},\frac{2c}{2})=(b,c)$

- The parallel line have equal slopes, so lets find the slopes of AB and

QR to prove that they have same slopes then they are parallel

# Slope of AB

∵ Point A is (x1 , y1) and point B is (x2 , y2)

∵ Point A = (a , 0) and point B = (b , c)

∴ x1 = a , x2 = b and y1 = 0 and y2 = c

∴ The slope of AB is $m=\frac{c-0}{b-a}=\frac{c}{b-a}$

# Slope of QR

∵ Point Q is (x1 , y1) and point R is (x2 , y2)

∵ Point Q = (2a , 0) and point R = (2b , 2c)

∴ x1 = 2a , x2 = 2b and y1 = 0 and y2 = 2c

∴ The slope of AB is $m=\frac{2c-0}{2b-2a}=\frac{2c}{2(b-c)}=\frac{c}{b-a}$

∵ The slopes of AB and QR are equal

∴ AB // QR

∵ AB is the line containing the midpoints of PQ and PR of Δ PQR

∵ QR is the third side of the triangle

∴ The line containing the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel

to the third side

Which graph shows the solution to the inequality Negative 3 x minus 7 less-than 20

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

A number line goes from negative 10 to positive 10. An open circle appears at negative 9. The number line is shaded from negative 9 through positive 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$-3x-7$

Solve for x

Adds 7 both sides

$-3x$

Divide by -3 both sides

Remember that

When you multiply or divide both sides of an inequality by a negative number, you must reverse the inequality symbol

so

$x> 27/(-3)\\x>-9$

The solution is the interval (-9,∞)

therefore

A number line goes from negative 10 to positive 10. An open circle appears at negative 9. The number line is shaded from negative 9 through positive 10.

A barrel of crude oil contains about 5.61 cubic feet of oil. How many barrels of oil contained in 1 mile (5280 feet) of a pipeli

8_murik_8 [283]

1)volume of the pipeline

The pipeline is a cylinder, therefore;
Volume (cylinder)=πr²h
r=radius
h=height of the cylinder

diameter=6 in*(1 ft / 12 in)=0.5 ft
raius=diameter / 2=0.5 ft / 2=0.25 ft.
height=5280 ft

Volume (pipeline)=π(0.25 ft)²(5280 ft)=330π ft³≈1036.73 ft³.

2) we calculate the number of barrel
1 mile of oil in this pipeline is 330π ft³ of oil.

1 barrel of crude------------------5.61 ft³
x----------------------------------330π ft³

x=(1 barrel*330π ft³) / 5.61 ft³=184.8 barrels

3) we calculate the price.

1 barrel---------------$100
184.8 barrels---------- x

x=(184.8 barrels * $100) / 1 barrel=$18,480

Solution: ≈$18,480

Caleb bought groceries and paid $1.60 in sales tax.the sales tax rate is 2.5% What was the price of Caleb’s groceries,before tax

Goryan [66]

Let price of the Caleb's groceries was $x.

Given that tax rate is 2.5% or 0.025

Then sales tax is given by product of 0.025 and x.

which is 0.025x.

Given that tax paid is $1.60 so both must be equal

$0.025x=1.6$
