These are the directions:

For each scenario, draw the demand for the good in parentheses. Then, based on what is written in the scenario, shift the demand graph appropriately. Be sure to label the original demand curve as "D1" and the shifted demand curve as "D2" and draw arrows to show if the demand curve shifted to the right or the left. Label the axes on the graph. Then, write what the deterimnant of demand is.

Paige What is 0.0002 as a percent? I volunteered at a homeless shelter today, so I missed algebra class!


message 12: by Laima (new)

Laima I think you multiply by 100 to get a percentage on the above question. So 100 x 0.0002 = .02 percent


message 13: by Wayward Skyril (new)

Wayward Skyril The way a percent works is like change from a dollar, so 100% is like $1.00, any less than that is the change, such as .97 = 97%; .50 = 50%; .05 = 5%.

What you have, .0002, is a fraction of a percent, so you just move the decimal over two places and put in the percent sign to make it .02%


message 14: by Wayward Skyril (new)

Wayward Skyril Kavy, I'm not sure exactly how much I can help you since this is a graph, but maybe I can at least explain some of the question.

The "good" is any item being sold, such as... tubes of toothpaste.

"Demand" is the buyer's desire for that product and willingness to pay the price asked.

Demand shifts, [increases or decreases], depending on several factors such as if the price goes up or down.

Shifting to the left means a decrease in demand

While shifting right means an increase in demand

Just remember that Right is Good, just like doing good is the right thing to do!

Ok, the axes are your lines in a graph, the X axis is horizontal, and the Y axis is vertical. What it wants you to do is fill in the numbers on the graph, like, for instance quantity of consumers along the bottom like, 25 50 75 100, and etc based on your numbers, and maybe price in the left, such, $2, $3, $4, $5, etc, and your graph would show, in this example, the number of people who would buy the toothpaste for various prices.

Determinants are factors other than price changes that effect the demand curve. They are what "determine" a shift in the curve. For instance, if someone's income increases, so does his demand because, think about it, he's got the money, what NOT buy ten boxes of toothpaste?
So when it says write what the determinant is, it's saying tell us WHY the demand increased or decreased.

I hope this will help you, and I'm sorry I couldn't do more!

Do you mean the history of cat scans? If so, this might help.

I just finished learning DNA replication! If you still need help, feel free to message me and I'll try my best to help :)

message 25: by Wayward Skyril (new)

Wayward Skyril Well, with the order of math problems, you'd do the multiplication first, so 83,488 x 72,838 which = 6,081,098,944.
Then you add/subtract in the order presented, meaning 167,737 - 23 - 4 + 6,081,098,944 =
6,081,266,654

And I need help with the subtitle it has to flesh out the problem that I am trying to solve it has to be very long


message 31: by kavi ~he-him~, Phenomenal Poll Mod #2 (new)

kavi ~he-him~ (spideykavi) | 469 comments Mod
the essay has to follow this basic model:

a. write a subtitle. Your essay should be called "A Modest Proposal" but the subtitle should flesh out what problem you are trying to solve (without giving away your "shocking" element)

b. Paragraph 1: A clear first paragraph that contains a fixed image of your problem. Try to include an image of your problem that elicits the readers' sympathies.

c. Paragraph 2: A Paragraph description of your shocking solution.

d. Paragraph 3: A list of four to six clearly labeled "logical reasons" for why your solution would work

e. Paragraph 4: An italicized paragraph describing your response to the opposition's argument

f. Paragraph 5: Conclusion



message 32: by Wayward Skyril (new)

Wayward Skyril Wow sounds like a long paper you have to write. So you need help with the subtitle? Hmm... I'm not very good with titles, but I'll try. Maybe one of them will give you an idea or something.

So I found this college of performing arts, and I'm currently doing an application for that college and I have to write a personal essay:

the prompt: Describe a challenging experience in your life and what you learned from it.

it has to be 500 words min

And I need help

this is what I have so far:

One of the challenging experiences in my life was when I was having trouble fitting in with all the other kids, and I also was struggling with the stress with my school work, and exams. I don't really do well under too much pressure. I have difficulties make friends with other kids because I'm really shy and I can be really awkward at times. But I learned that I liked being different from the other kids. I liked being myself, and I accepted the person that I am today. And in Junior and Senior year, I made some really nice and amazing friends and they accepted me for who I was. Even though, I didn't have that much friends, back in high school, I was happy with the friends, that I did have. And I learned that not everyone will like me. There will be some people that like me, and accept me for who I am, but not everyone is like that. And I also learned that, it's okay to fail sometimes, as long as you try your hardest. Sometimes when you fail, you can get back up and keep going, until you make it. I learned that I'd rather fail, then never try. I learned that popularity is not always everything. What really matters, is your personality, and your attitude, and how you get along with others. Everyone is beautiful just the way they are, inside and outside.

This seriously looks like I wrote it! The exact same way I wrote this in my head. I would believe you if you said you copied my diary in my head.

But yah.. back to business, you need help. Okay so.. you have a lot of dead verbs. Example: was. I know I hate that rule too and it drives me crazy rewriting sentences because of one stupid, dead verb. I just learned that in my English class this year and I'm already a senior. They could have thought me that in elementary. Another thing, like I said it reads like I wrote it which is not something you want. It's cool that I finally find someone with the same experience but I see we both have the problem with not including more feelings in a writing maybe a few sentences of a moment you remember where you began to realize being yourself is key and finally made that one awesome friend who are quiet like you but gave you a bigger bowl and spoon for cereal then the rest. (just an example of one of mine making new friend moment). Maybe use bigger words. :/
I don't want you too feel worse about this because there is always a way to improve writings. I could rewrite this whole comment ten times and still find a way to make myself more meaningful, supporting than this.. I do have to many dead verbs too. Don't feel bad. please. Then I'll feel bad too. :(
So basically, no dead verbs, a few sentences of one experience and longer words I wouldn't understand and.. and everything else that needs improvement is beyond my understanding. English is my least favorite class so don't be afraid of not following my advise.

Good Luck! And enjoy your friends. They are the best. :D :)
