this is what you have to go by for number 6
Two grocery stores are located in the downtown area of a small city. The first
offers excellent prices for buying large bulk quantities. The second does not
have bulk offers, but offers lower prices on single items
I'll gladly check your answers.
jeez mr sue for someone everywhere you don't answer that many questions I mean like 2 YEARS?!?
6. The question is asking why both of these stores would attract a good number of customers. To answer this question, we need to analyze the given options and choose the most likely explanation.
- Option A suggests that customers value different types of deals. This means that each store may offer unique promotions or discounts that cater to different customer preferences.
- Option B suggests that customers have different brand loyalties. This means that some customers may prefer one particular store's brand over the other, resulting in a good number of customers for both stores.
- Option C suggests that customers patronize both stores to maintain competition. This means that some customers may choose to shop at both stores to support healthy market competition.
- Option D suggests that customers do not have the information to choose the best option. This means that customers may not be aware of which store is better and, therefore, choose to shop at both.
To determine the correct answer, we should consider which option is most likely to result in a good number of customers for both stores. Options A, B, and C all suggest reasons why customers would choose both stores. However, option D suggests a lack of information, which may not necessarily result in a good number of customers for both stores. Therefore, the most likely explanation is either Option A (Customers value different types of deals) or Option B (Customers have different brand loyalties).
7. The question is asking which situation is more likely to occur in a market economy than a command economy. To determine the correct answer, we need to compare the characteristics of market and command economies.
- Option A suggests that people line up for cheap but scarce products. This situation is more likely to occur in a market economy because prices are determined by supply and demand. If a product is scarce and in high demand, people may have to wait in line to purchase it at a lower price.
- Option B suggests that a student is guaranteed a job out of college. This situation is less likely to occur in a market economy because job opportunities are not guaranteed. In a market economy, individuals have to compete for available jobs based on their skills and qualifications.
- Option C suggests that an inventor designs and produces a new type of car. This situation is more likely to occur in a market economy because entrepreneurs have the freedom to innovate and bring new products to the market.
- Option D suggests that a committee chooses which farms should receive new tractors. This situation is more likely to occur in a command economy where the government controls the allocation of resources and makes decisions on behalf of the people.
Based on the characteristics of market and command economies, the most likely situation to occur in a market economy is Option C (An inventor designs and produces a new type of car).
8. The question is asking how the use of plastic to produce bicycle helmets affects other plastic-using industries. To determine the correct answer, we need to analyze the impact of using plastic for bicycle helmets on other plastic-using industries.
- Option A suggests that it decreases the prices offered by other industries. This means that the use of plastic in producing bicycle helmets might lead to increased competition among plastic-using industries, resulting in lower prices for their products.
- Option B suggests that it increases the demand for products of other industries. This means that the increased production and consumption of bicycle helmets, which use plastic, might also increase the demand for other plastic-using industries' products.
- Option C suggests that it increases the capital available to other industries. This means that the use of plastic in bicycle helmets might lead to increased revenue and profits in the plastic industry, which could then be reinvested in other industries.
- Option D suggests that it decreases the amount of resources available to other industries. This means that the increased demand for plastic to produce bicycle helmets might result in limited resources available for other plastic-using industries, potentially impacting their production.
To determine the correct answer, we should consider the most likely and direct impact of using plastic for bicycle helmets on other plastic-using industries. Option A suggests that it decreases the prices offered by other industries, which seems less likely since the production of bicycle helmets might not directly influence the prices of other industries' products. Option B and Option C both present plausible explanations for the impact of plastic helmet production on other industries, but Option B seems to have a more direct connection to increased demand from consumers. Therefore, the most likely answer is Option B (It increases the demand for products of other industries).
9. The question is asking for the most likely explanation as to why many employees of a local restaurant suddenly quit and seek other opportunities. To answer this question, we need to analyze the given options and choose the most likely explanation.
- Option A suggests a developing price war. This means that competition between restaurants may have led to a decrease in prices and wages, prompting employees to seek better opportunities elsewhere.
- Option B suggests a protest action by the union. This means that employees may have collectively taken action to protest against unfavorable working conditions or low wages, resulting in them quitting and seeking better opportunities.
- Option C suggests a decrease in positive incentives to work. This means that the restaurant may have reduced benefits, rewards, or incentives for employees, leading them to look for alternative job opportunities.
- Option D suggests a decrease in negative incentives to being unemployed. This means that the restaurant may have made it less undesirable to be unemployed, possibly by providing severance packages or other forms of financial support, incentivizing employees to quit.
To determine the correct answer, we should consider which option is most likely to explain why a large number of employees would quit and seek other opportunities. Option A, a developing price war, does not necessarily explain why employees would quit. Option B, a protest action by the union, seems plausible but depends on the presence of a union. Option C, a decrease in positive incentives to work, suggests a change in employee benefits or rewards that might lead employees to seek better opportunities. However, Option D, a decrease in negative incentives to being unemployed, seems to have a more direct correlation. If the restaurant made being unemployed more attractive by providing financial support or other benefits, employees may be incentivized to quit and explore other opportunities. Therefore, the most likely explanation is Option D (Decrease in negative incentives to being unemployed).
