The short-term demand for crude oil in Country A in 2008 can be approximated by q equals f (p )equals 1 comma 782 comma 844 p Superscript negative 0.06, where p represents the price of crude oil in dollars per barrel and q represents the per capita consumption of crude oil. Calculate and interpret the elasticity of demand when the price is $42 per barrel.

Needs to schedule the staffing of the center. it is open from 8am until midnight. larry has monitored the usage of the center at various times of the day and determined that the following number of computer consultants are required: time of dayminimum number of consultants required to be on duty8 am-noon4noon-4 pm84pm-8pm108pm-midnight6 two types of computer consultants can be hired: full-time and part-time. the full- time consultants work for eight consecutive hours in any of the shifts: morning (8am- 4pm), afternoon (noon-8pm) and evening (4pm-midnight). full-time consultants are paid $14 per hour. part-time consultants can be hired to work any of the four shifts listed in the table. part-time consultants are paid $12 per hour. an additional requirement is that during every time period, there must be at least two full-time consultants on duty for every part-time consultant on duty. larry would like to determine how many full-time and part-time consultants should work each shift to meet the above requirements at the minimum possible cost. formulate this as an lp problem. you must define your variables clearly

Need with my trade theory homework. i doubt what i wrote was right.consider a monopolistically competitive market for soft drinks in which n symmetric firms face the following demand function: q=s(1/n-b(p-(p with the straight line on which implies the marginal revenue functionmr=p-(q/sb)finally, suppose firms face the total cost functiontc=900,000+100qsuppose the market size, s, is 27,000,000, and the elasticity parameter b is 0.003.diagram the price and the average total cost in the market as a function of the number of firms. what are the equations for each curve, and why does each curve slope up or down? label the equilibrium number of firms and the equilibrium price in the diagram. why is this the equilibrium?
