no 1 cant b E and no 5 also cant b d
2x+5y equal to 11 eqn 1 multiply all by 4
7x+4y equal to 2 eqn 2 multiply all by 5
8x+20y equal to 44
35x+20y equal to 10
27x equal to 54
divide bth sides by 27 that will give u 2
substitute x equal to 2 in either of the eqn you will get 3
no 1 answer
0.2+1.0+0.9+1.4+0.8+0.8+1.2+1.1 divide all by 8 u will get 1.05

you're right abt no 1. It's D. But i disagree in number 5.

I agree up to the extent of the new equations:
8x + 20y = 44 ---- (3)
35x + 20y = 10 ---- [4]

then:
equ.4 into equ. 3
27x = -34
x = - 34/27
then you sub the answer into equ. 1 to get 'y' which is 73/27

noted thanks.

can you pls explain no 2 to me ...I dont really understand it

k. Let x represent his salary before increase.
15% of x = 345
which is:
115/100x = 345
115x = 34500
x = N300

[b[it is perfectly inelastic because a change in price doesn't affect the quantity demanded. People must demand for services of doctors, food sellers, fuel sellers etc.[/i]

For your question on perishable goods, emm... I think the supply is perfectly inelastic because a change in price doesn't affect the quantity they will supply. They know the risk of withdrawing supply.

Read up price elasticity of supply and demand and feel free to throw more questions on the topic

Thanks i understand now.

11. D capitalism. When private individuals are in charge of the means of production, we have what is call an open market or free market where buyers and sellers [forces of demand and supply] can determine production and price.

15 is Nigeria. They were the first to introduce the elective principle. Way back in 1922 by clifford
