Answer:

The correct answer is letter B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Contractionary monetary policies are instruments used by the FED to decrease the amount of money in an economy. There are three classic instruments of monetary policy: open market, rediscount policy and compulsory deposit. The open market is about buying and selling federal government bonds. Thus, by selling bonds, the bank will be increasing the supply of bonds in the economy, on the other hand, is withdrawing dollars, that is, will be withdrawing currency from the economy, resulting in a contractionary monetary policy. Rediscount refers to the interest rate on loans that the FED lends to financial institutions. In situations of illiquidity, banks turn to the FED for loans. In this case, the FED, by increasing the rediscount rate, hindering the supply of money to the institutions and thus exerting a contractionary monetary policy. Finally, bank reserves refer to the part of banks' monetary reserves that are required to be deposited with the FED. Thus, by increasing the percentage of such reserves, the FED is exerting a contractionary fiscal policy, as it decreases the total amount of commercial banks' borrowing resources.

Kryger [21]

Answer:

x = 8

y = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Total small box weight  = 50x    [x being the number of small boxes]

Total large box weight = 80y     [y being the number of large boxes]      

Total boxes = x+y = 19

Total weight = 1280

<em>Determine x and y.</em>

<u>You know 2 equations. One for weight and another for number of boxes each.</u>

  • 1280 = 50x +80y
  • x+y = 19

<u>Rewrite second equation:</u>

x+y=19

y=19-x

<u>You have to plug in one into another.</u>

1280 = 50x + 80(19-x)

<u>Solve for x</u>

1280 = 50x + 1520 - 80x

-240 = -30x

x = 8

<u>Solve for y by plugging in x into one of the equations:</u>

8+y = 19

y = 11

Terry deposits $200 into a bank account that earns 3% simple interest per year. What is the total amount in the account after 2
MrRa [10]
Well first you have to solve for the 1st year so 200*.03, .03 represents the 3%. Which would equal 6 dollars so after the 1st year he would have 200+6=206.

Now you do the second year so do 206*.03, which would equal 6.18 so 206+6.18=212.18

Answer= 212.18
