Answer Exercises 7.6, 7.7, 7.8 (page 121) and Exercises 8.1, 8.4, 8.6 (page 133). Use evidence from the reading to support your answers.
Hint: For Exercise 8.6, you need to calculate
Percent Change in visit ((new-old)/old)*100
Percent change in price ((new-old)/old)*100
Price elasticity of demand (value from percent change in visit/percent change in price)
Exercise
7.6 During the last five years, average daily occupancy at the Autumn Acres nursing home has slid from 125 to 95 even though Autumn Acres has cut its daily rate from $125 to $115. Do these data suggest that occupancy would have been higher if Autumn Acres had raised its rates? What changes in nonprice demand factors might explain this change? (The supply, or the number of nursing home beds in the area, has not changed during this period.)
7.7 Your hospital is considering opening a satellite urgent care center about five miles from your main campus. You have been charged with gathering demographic information that might affect the demand for the center’s services. What data are likely to be relevant?
7.8 How would each of the following changes affect the demand curve for acupuncture? a. The price of an acupuncture session increases. b. A reduction in back problems occurs as a result of sessions about stretching on a popular television show. c. Medicare reduces the copayment for acupuncture from $20 to $10. d. The surgeon general issues a warning that back surgery is ineffective. e. Medicare stops covering back surgery
8.1 Why are elasticities useful for managers?
8.4 Why is the demand for an individual firm’s healthcare products usually elastic?
8.6 Average visits per week equal 640 when the copayment is $40 and 360 when the copayment rises to $60. Calculate the percentage change in visits, percentage change in price, and price elasticity of demand.

I already wrote 3 pages. I just need to add two more pages and reach the page number to 5. I also need a overall proofreading to integrate my part into your part as a whole essay. This might include grammar editing. If you need little extra payment for the grammar editing, please let me know or post a link.
Two graph is needed as the requirement.

For this paper, you will choose a developing country and describe its general growth and development experience (based on the literature and data). You may want to discuss its economic growth and/or relevant political, social, demographic, environmental, and institutional factors. While you may discuss certain historical factors that are relevant to the country’s growth and development experience, please remember that this is NOT a history paper. In other words, your focus should be on the components of growth and development that are relevant and important to your chosen country. Good papers will include some sort of thesis sentence and argument. For example, a thesis sentence for this first paper might be, “Although Argentina used to be one of the richest countries in the world, its development experience over the past century has been largely negative”. Or, “The United Arab Emirates has recently been experiencing growth without development.”
Like all good papers, I expect you to cite some relevant, credible literature. The full source citations should appear at the end of the paper. In addition, whenever you write any sentence in the paper that has information taken from one of your sources, you must include a citation at the end of the sentence. For example: (Peters, 2011).
Your paper should be about 3 pages. Use a standard font (such as Times New Roman 12pt font). I will deduct points from your grade for any paper over 4 pages. Clear and concise writing is an extremely difficult skill to master, but it is a valuable one
