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

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.

Solve the linear equation by combining like terms: 23 + 7 - 2x = 8x
Aleks [24]

Answer:

23+7-2x=8x

We simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand  

23+7-2x=8x

We move all terms containing x to the left and all other terms to the right.  

-2x-8x=-23-7

We simplify left and right side of the equation.  

-10x=-30

We divide both sides of the equation by -10 to get x.  

x=3

WARRIOR [948]
35+25=60
y=60


If you add the opposite side values of the triangle (not the one touching the y), you get the value of y). 35+25=y
This works because y+x= 180 and the three angles of a triangle add to 180.
