If the marginal propensity to consume is 0.8, (a) what is the value of the multiplier?

pentagon [3]

Given the marginal propensity to consume (MPC), the miltiplier is given by

Multiplier = 1 / (1 - MPC)

Given that the marginal propensity to consume is 0.8, the multiplier is given by

Multiplier = 1 / (1 - 0.8) = 1 / 0.2 = 5

6+2=8, right? Okay. Next, all you have to do is take away the equation "6+2". Now what you have is... 8x5. That's easy! 40. This is a very easy problem if you think about it.

Suppose that a cyclist began a 476

mojhsa [17]

Well, we know the cyclist left the western part going eastwards, at the same time the car left the eastern part going westwards

the distance between them is 476 miles, and they met 8.5hrs later

let's say after 8.5hrs, the cyclist has travelled "d" miles, whilst the car has travelled the slack, or 476-d, in the same 8.5hrs

we know the rate of the car is faster... so if the cyclist rate is say "r", then the car's rate is r+33.2

thus $\bf \begin{array}{lccclll}
&distance&rate&time\\
&-----&-----&-----\\
\textit{eastbound cyclist}&d&r&8.5\\
\textit{westbound car}&476-d&r+33.2&8.5
\end{array}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
\begin{cases}
\boxed{d}=8.5r\\\\
476-d=(r+33.2)8.5\\
----------\\
476-\boxed{8.5r}=(r+33.2)8.5
\end{cases}$

solve for "r", to see how fast the cyclist was going

what about the car? well, the car's rate is r + 33.2
