Suppose a nuclear power plant disaster occurs. How could GDP be a "false beacon" in this case?

Mathematics
1 answer:
likoan [24]2 years ago
4 0

If there was a nuclear plant disaster, then GDP would be a false beacon because it would account for government spending but not for the pollution caused.

<h3>Why would GDP be a false beacon?</h3>

Two of the components of GDP are government spending and private investment.

If there is a nuclear plant disaster, either the government will spend a lot to clean it up, or a private company will depending on if the plant is public or private.

GDP would therefore increase.

This would be a false beacon however, because this increase would not take into account the nuclear pollution that would have occurred that would negatively impact future production.

What are the solutions of 3x2 - x + 4 =
o-na [289]

To do this, you must use the order of operations.

3·2=6

6+4=10

Now to solve (-)x.

Since -x comes in front of 4, you must make your equation:

-x+10

Nothing is written for x, so now, you have the answer.

-x+10

alexira [117]

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample Response: No, the triangle is not possible. The triangle inequality rule states the sum of any two sides must be greater than the third side. 6 + 4 is 10, which is less than 11.

Points (3,2) and (-5,6) are endpoints of the diameter of a circle.
vichka [17]

Answer:

A.8 B.(-1,4) C.(1,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, know that (3,2)=(x1,y1) and (-5,6)=(x2,y2)

A. The diameter is 8, given the diference between x1 and x2: 3-(-5)=8

B. The center point is given by (x1+x2)/2 and (y1+y2)/2

(x1+x2)/2 and (y1+y2)/2 = (3-5)/2 and (2+6)/2 = (-1,4)

C. The symmetric point of C about the x-axis is (1,4)

If Y varies directly with X solve the following :
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

a) x = -270

b) y = 304/9 or y = 33.78

c) x = -37.8

Step-by-step explanation:

y varies directly with x so y = kx

a)

y = kx

k = y/x

k = 10/-30 = -1/3

So

y = -1/3 x

If y = 90 then

90 = -1/3 x

x = 90 *(-3) = -270

b)

k = y/x

k = -19/-4.5

k = 38/9

So

y = 38/9 x

If x = - 8 then

y = 38/9 *(-8)

y = 304/9 or y = 33.78

c)

k = y/x

k = -4.3 / 12.9

k = - 1/3

So

y = -1/3 x

If y = 12.6 then

12.6 = -1/3 x

x = 12.6 *(-3)

x = -37.8

Can I get some help we just started this today
Alja [10]

Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line tells us how y responds to a change in x.  If the slope is 2, it means that for every time x increases by 1, will will go up by 2.

We can calculate slope from a line, or with two given points.  I used points (0,4) and (3,-2).  Slope is the "Rise/Run."

The Rise:  (-2 - 4) = -6

The Run:  (3 - 0) = 3

Slope = Rise/Run = (-6/3) = -2
