ello! asked:


You manage a 160 unit motel. All units will be occupied, on average, when you charge $50 per day per unit. Experience shows that for each $1 per day per unit that you increase the price, you will accrue 2 vacancies. Each occupied room costs $4 per day to clean and supply. On this basis, what price, in dollars, should you charge per unit per day to maximize your profit?

a. $87

b. $82

c. $77

d. $72

e. $67

f. $62

g. $57

h. none of these

Nashville and Memphis Trip in August?

Hotel Prices 4 Comments »
Elizabeth S asked:


Hi all, my mother (50) and I (23) will be heading to Tennessee this summer for the first time. We’re flying into Nashville and out from Memphis a week later.

I would LOVE suggestions on where to stay or things we should DEFINITELY do. I’m looking for inexpensive (read: under $80 a night) hotels/motels that are decent and hopefully have a pool. I wouldn’t mind staying outside of the city for something special or a good price.

We want to avoid anything by the airport or anything just truly unpleasant. Free parking would be great.

No real special needs at all, just looking to have a great time.

We’ll be renting a car, so driving won’t be an issue and we’re both long-haul commuters at home.

Anyway, I’d love some tips or hints or suggestions about anything or everything related to the trip. We’re really looking forward to it and it’s just hard to pick between all the places out there.

Thanks!

Ralph

Lauren R asked:


Los Angeles (3 nights), Houston (2 nights), Chicago (3 nights), Boston (4 nights), New York (5 nights) and Washington DC (3 nights)?

There are 5 of us. We want reasonably priced very safe accomodation which is still central enough if possible.

What areas in the different places are safe and what places should we avoid?
We will be staying in cheaper hotels or motels but THEY MUST BE SAFE! We are from Australia. Going to America in July. Thanks, please be specific about each of the places. We don’t know where to stay!
Thanks songbird. I’ve emailed you about locations.

Bitterly Sweet asked:


I have searched yahoo farechase or whatever it is for motels in windsor, canada, and the lowest price i’ve gotten is 63 USD. Is there some around the windsor casino that are cheaper, that may not be showing up on the search? if you know of an extremely cheap motel (but not too extremely crappy) please let me know the name of it. I’m only looking to spend one night there, but would like it walking distance to the windsor casino.
Thank you for any help in advance!

BrooklynChk asked:


People are always going away to the Jersey Shore. A few questions -
1. I live in New York City - can I get there on a BUS? how far is it?
2. Where do people stay there - are there reasonably prices hotels/motels in the area right by the beach or you only have to stay if you know people who have houses.

Haiwii Opinions?

Dog Lover asked:


I am looking into spending a week in Haiwii probably in may.

Can some of you who are in the know give me some advise on the best island to visit and the best hotel?

I was thinking of Maui, but I hear that it has gone so commercial and many of the hotels are getting old and run down, but still charge huge prices.

Over all, looking for an island that has both lots to see but also is relaxing. I don’t mind spending big money on a hotel, but it has to be nice. I don’t want “motel 6″ at resort price. I want the resort, no matter what the price.

Any and all advice would be helpful.

adnan g asked:


a. (DOWN) There is an above average growing season in the Midwest (bushel of corn)

b. (DOWN) Strawberries are in season with a bumper crop.

c. (DOWN) It’s the summer season (price of motel rooms in ski areas).

d. (DOWN) A nutrition study indicates that red meat should be eaten only in moderation, if at all. (price of red meat)

e. (UP) A major corporation announces that it has developed a new product that is expected to revolutionize the treatment of a chronic disease. (price of its stock)

Those are my opinions, but there is only one that I think goes up so I wanted to see what you guys think.
what do you guys think?

Why does my GF have SO MANY sexual partners?

hunter849 asked:


1. Her then steady BF
2. Her “friend with benefits” whom she saw twice a month
3. A man she refers to as her “f*ckbuddy” whom she saw once a month
4. Her friend with benefits roommate
5. THREE co-workers
6.One night stand with a man she met at a bar
7. One night stand in Vegas
8. Her sister’s husband
9. Got drunk and spent the night at a friend’s house and slept with him then blamed it “on the alcohol” and said she wasn’t even “attracted to him”.
10. An 8 month sexual relationship with a man.
11. A 3 month sexual relationship with another man.
12. A 2 month sexual relationship with yet another man.
13. One night stand with a man she met on Myspace.
14. A man she met at a house party.

^^^ These are the SIXTEEN men she slept with in the few months before she and I became involved.

During any given month, she was regularly having sex with at least 4 men and sometimes, up to as many as 9 men.

She claims to be “a very sexual person.” BUT I think that her behavior stems from:

1. Her parents’ neglect.
2. Her parents’ were both drug addicts who had her as teenagers and later, both committed suicide while on drugs.
3. One of her mom’s many BFs MAY have molested her.

My GF is an alcoholic and is currently in court-mandated AA classes. Will she EVER change? She doesn’t see anything wrong with her lifestyle.

She wants me to get her pregnant so that she can have a “family to always love” b/c she hates her own family.

Sex for her with random men is not a big deal.

When I met her, she carried condoms in her purse and knew the prices of 3 motel rooms in town.

Should I stay with her and hope she changes and get her pregnant?? But I fear that she will always cheat on me like she cheated on her ex-BF with those OTHER 15 MEN.
^^^ This all happened over a span of a few months. None of these men knew about each other. If she’s been with 16 men in less than 6 months -how many must she have slept with over the past 17 years since losing her virginity?
