If a distribution is symmetric, its mean is the same as its median, so the median would also be 28.
Answer:
120 MW/hour
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula of the average rate of change between two points in a function is:
Average rate of change (ARC) = f(x2) -f(x1)/(x2-x1)
Let's think the power demad as a function d(x) depending of the hour of the day, so the variable x= hour of the day.
Now we have:
d(5)= 1600
d(8)= 1960
If we apply the mentioned ARC formula = [d(8)-d(5)] MW/(8-5)hour= (1960-1600)MW/3hour= 360/3=120 MW/Hour
According to this law, when unemployment goes up by 1%, GDP drops by 2%. In the question, unemployment rate goes from 2% to 5%, meaning unemployment goes up by 3%, so the GDP drops by 6%. Thus the effect is a drop in GDP by 6%.
