Answer:

a. The state of Pennsylvania repaves highway PA 320, which goes through the center of Swarthmore. - Government Purchases (G).

The Government purchases/ expenditure portion of GDP includes the expenses by Government on the economy. This expenditure by the Pennsylvania Government will therefore come under here.

b. Simone gets a new refrigerator made in the United States. - Consumption (C).

Consumption accounts for spending by households and individuals in the economy. Simone lives in the US and buys goods in the US so this is Consumption.

c. Simone's father in Sweden orders a bottle of Vermont maple syrup from the producer's website. - Exports (X)

Exports are goods made in a country which are then sold to consumers outside the country. Simone's father is in Sweden so buying an American product is an export for the United States.

d. Rajiv's employer upgrades all of its computer systems using U.S.-made parts. - Investment (I).

Investment refers to spending by private interests that are aimed to improve capital goods in the economy. Spending on upgrading computer systems therefore falls here.

e. Rajiv buys a sweater made in Guatemala. - Imports (M)

Diogo has a utility function,U(q1, q2) = q1 0.8 q2 0.2,where q1 is chocolate candy and q2 is slices of pie. If the price of slic

guapka [62]

Answer:

$(0.5 \times 8q_2)+q_2=100\\\\5q_2=100\\\\q_2=20$

since $q_2 = 20$

$q_1 = 8*20\\\\q_1=160$

Explanation:

U(q₁ q₂)

$q_1^{0.8}q_2^{0.2}\\\\P_1= \$0.5 \ P_2=\$1 \ Y=100$

Budget law can be given by

$P_1q_1+P_2q_2=Y\\\\0.5q_1+q_2=100$

Lagrangian function can be given by

$L=q_1^{0.8}q_2^{0.2}+ \lambda (100-0.5q_1-q_2)$

First order condition csn be given by

$\frac{dL}{dq} =0.8q_1^{-0.2}q_2^{0.2}-0.5 \lambda=0\\\\0.5 \lambda=0.8q_1^{-0.2}q_2^{0.2}---(i)$

$\frac{dL}{dq} =0.2q_1^{0.8}q_2^{-0.8}- \lambda=0\\\\ \lambda=0.2q_1^{0.8}q_2^{-0.8}---(ii)$

$\frac{dL}{d \lambda} =100-0.5q_1-q_2=0\\\\0.5q_1+q_2=100---(iii)$

From eqn (i) and eqn (ii) we have

$\frac{0.5 \lambda}{\lambda} =\frac{0.8q_1^{-0.2}q_2^{0.2}}{0.2q_1^{0.8}q_2^{-0.8}} \\\\0.5=\frac{4q_2}{q_1}\\\\q_1=8q_2}$

Putting $q_1=8q_2$ in euqtion (iii) we have

$(0.5 \times 8q_2)+q_2=100\\\\5q_2=100\\\\q_2=20$

since $q_2 = 20$

$q_1 = 8*20\\\\q_1=160$

Which of the following statements is false? A) Battery acid cannot be neutralized B) Batteries should never be stored on metal t

zysi [14]

Answer:

The answer is (A) battery acid cannot be neutralized.

Explanation:

Battery acid can be neutralized. Since battery acid is lower in pH, a person must increase battery acid’s pH so that it would be neutralized. Usually, to do this, people utilizes baking soda since it has a higher pH. Neutral pH is a pH of 7, so one must carefully add the baking soda to the battery acid until when tested, the pH value has arrived at a neutral range.
