Chapter 7.6, Problem 57E
Use the elimination method in Exercises 55 – 58 to find an equilibrium point for the described supply-demand situation. You may assume that the supply and demand equations are both linear.
Supply and demand-used books. A bookstore buys and sells used textbooks. For a current sociology text, it has found that if it pays an average price of $30 for each used book, it will be able to buy 60 texts for resale and will have 95 customers who are willing to buy the texts after markup. If it pays $42 per used text, it will be able to buy 120 texts but will be able to sell only 50 of them. What price should it offer for the used texts in order to sell all that it buys?

Q. Table provided gives data on gross domestic product (GDP) for the United States for the years 1959–2005.
a. Plot the GDP data in current and constant (i.e., 2000) dollars against time.
b. Letting Y denote GDP and X time (measured chronologically starting with 1 for 1959, 2 for 1960, through 47 for 2005), see if the following model fits the GDP data:
Yt = β1 + β2 Xt + ut
Estimate this model for both current and constant-dollar GDP.
c. How would you interpret β2?
d. If there is a difference between β2 estimated for current-dollar GDP and that estimated for constant-dollar GDP, what explains the difference?
e. From your results what can you say about the nature of inflation in the United States over the sample period?
National Debt The size of the total debt owed by the UnitedStates federal government continues to grow. In fact,according to the Department of the Treasury, the debt perperson living in the United States is approximately $53,000(or over $140,000 per U.S. household). The following datarepresent the U.S. debt for the years 2001–2014. Since thedebt D depends on the year y, and each input correspondsto exactly one output, the debt is a function of the year. SoD1y2 represents the debt for each year y.

- IKEA has a contract to deliver 100, 250, 190, 140, 220, and 110 home windows over the next 6 months. Production cost (labor, material, and utilities) per window varies by period and is estimated to be $50, $45, $55, $48, $52, and $50 over the next 6 months. To take advantage of the fluctuations in manufacturing cost, IKEA can produce more windows than needed in a given month and hold the extra units for delivery in later months. This will incur a storage cost at the rate of $8 per window per month, assessed on the end-of season inventory. Now IKEA wants to minimize their respective cost. Based on this data answer the following questions Qus.1)Write down the objective function of the linear programming consistent with the objective of IKEA.arrow_forwardSolve the systems in Exercises 11–14.arrow_forwardexercise #25arrow_forward
- Large companies typically collect volumes of data before designing a product, not only to gain information as to whether the product should be released, but also to pinpoint which markets would be the best targets for the product. Several months ago, I was interviewed by such a company while shopping at a mall. I was asked about my exercise habits and whether or not I'd be interested in buying a video/DVD designed to teach stretching exercises. I fall into the male, 18 – 35-years-old category, and I guessed that, like me, many males in that category would not be interested in a stretching video. My friend Amanda falls in the female, older-than-35 category, and I was thinking that she might like the stretching video. After being interviewed, I looked at the interviewer's results. Of the 97 people in my market category who had been interviewed, 16 said they would buy the product, and of the 101 people in Amanda's market category, 31 said they would buy it.

- Regression and Predictions. Exercises 13–28 use the same data sets as Exercises 13–28 in Section 10-1. In each case, find the regression equation, letting the first variable be the predictor (x) variable. Find the indicated predicted value by following the prediction procedure summarized in Figure 10-5 on page 493. Manatees Use the listed boat/manatee data. In a year not included in the data below, there were 970,000 registered pleasure boats in Florida. Find the best predicted number of manatee fatalities resulting from encounters with boats. Is the result reasonably close to 79, which was the actual number of manatee fatalities?arrow_forwardThe Internal Revenue Service Restructuring and Reform Act (RRA) was signed into law by President Bill Clinton in 1998. A major objective of the RRA was to promote electronic filing of tax returns. The data in the table that follows show the percentage of individual income tax returns filed electronically for filing years 2000–2008. Since the percentage P of returns filed electronically depends on the filing year y and each input corresponds to exactly one output, the percentage of returns filed electronically is a function of the filing year;so P(y) represents the percentage of returns filed electronically for filing year y. (a) Find the average rate of change of the percentage of e-filed returns from 2000 to 2002. (b) Find the average rate of change of the percentage of e-filed returns from 2004 to 2006. (c) Find the average rate of change of the percentage of e-filed returns from 2006 to 2008. (d) What is happening to the average rate of change as time passes?arrow_forwardDisposable income is the amount left after taxes have been paid and is one measure of the health of the economy. The following table gives the total U.S. disposable income (in billions of 2005 dollars) for selected years from 2010 and projected to 2040. Year 2010 2015 2020 2025 2030 2035 2040 Income (billions) $10,017 $11,120 $12,655 $14,259 $15,948 $17,752 $19,785 (a) Use x as the number of years past 2010 and write the equation of the quadratic function that best models these data. (Round all numerical values to one decimal places.) y(x) = (b) What does the model predict for the disposable income (in billions of dollars) in 2024?
