Answer:

The length of DF must be between 21 and 53.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a triangle, the length of two sides added together must exceed the length of the 3rd side. So, since EF is the shortest of the two givens, we know that EF + DF must be greater than DE. So we can plug in these numbers to find the minimum.

EF + DF > DE

16 + DF > 37

DF > 21

Now, for the upper maximum, we know that the two given lengths must be greater than the length of DF. So again, we can solve for the maximum using the amounts.

DE + EF > DF

37 + 16 > DF

53 > DF

With these two in mind, we know that DF must be between 21 and 53

Answer: 21 < DF < 53 ; Triangle Inequality Theorem

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The Triangle Inequality Theorem states that the sum of any two sides is greater than the sum of the third side.

DE + EF > DF          EF + DF > DE                 DE + DF > EF

37 + 16 > DF           16 + DF > 37                  37 + DF > 16

       53 > DF                   DF > 21                           DF > -21


Now let's put together the answers.  Note that DF > -21 is irrelevant since all lengths must be greater than 0.

53 > DF  and DF > 21  means that DF is between 53 and 21

----->    21 < DF < 53

madreJ [45]

Answer:

ln [2^4 * 5^3]

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite 4 ln 2 as ln 2^4 and 3 ln 5 as ln 5^3.

Then 4 In 2+3 In 5 = ln 2^4 + ln 5^3, which in turn becomes

ln [2^4 * 5^3]

Need some help with macroeconomics !
Korolek [52]

The monetary policy that the Central Bank is using to address the downturn in the economy is the reduction of the reserve requirement from 17% t 14%.

The macroeconomic issues resulting from the pandemic on Trinidad and Tobago are that there are less money in circulation and there's a reduction in the standard of living.

The reduction of the reserve requirement will impact the money supply as it will lead to more money in circulation.

<u>Complete question:</u>

1. What form of monetary policy can the Central Bank use to address the downturn in the economy resulting from the pandemic?

2. Identity and explain two macroeconomic issues resulting from the pandemic on Trinidad and Tobago.

3. Identify how the reserve requirement will impact the money supply.
