Answer: Mikey's mom will buy 80 tablespoons each of cereal and juice. Option C.

Explanation:

We will get the correct option by calculating each option thus:

Cereal = 4 cents per tablespoon.

Juice = 6 cents per tablespoon.

Option A. 40 tablespoons of cereal and 75 tablespoons of juice.

40 tablespoons of cereal X 4 cents = 160 cents = $1.6

75 tablespoons of juice X 6 cents = 450 cents = $4.5

Option A gives a total of $6.1 (WRONG).

Option B. 100 tablespoons of cereal and 67 tablespoons of juice

100 tablespoons of cereal X 4 cents = 400 cents = $4

67 tablespoons of juice X 6 cents = 372 cents = $3.72

Option B gives a total of $7.72 (WRONG).

Option C. 80 tablespoons each of cereal and juice.

80 tablespoons of cereal X 4 cents = 320 cents = $3.2

80 tablespoons of juice X 6 cents = 480 cents = $4.8

Option C gives a total of $8 (CORRECT)

Option D. 40 tablespoons each of cereal and juice.

40 tablespoons of cereal X 4 cents = 160 cents = $1.6

40 tablespoons of juice X 6 cents = 240 cents = $2.4

Option D gives a total of $4 (WRONG)

Therefore, the correct option is C.

John wants to know how much he should pay for a particular used car. what should john do? he should ask his friend how much he p
SSSSS [86.1K]
What John should do is he should find reliable and relevant information; perhaps look up the information in the Kelley Blue Book.
He can't ask his friend because he may want to buy a different car, so his advice may not be helpful at all. A car dealer may want him to pay more than he should, so that wouldn't be useful either. His net worth will not help him reach his decision on how much he should pay for the particular car. So this Kelley Blue Book, which is used to compare prices for used cars is his best choice.

Consider the economies of Kimberlei and Clarkistan, which are identical except that the multiplier in Kimberlei is smaller than
asambeis [7]

Answer:

This means that Kimberlei's GDP is <em><u> less sensitive than </u></em> Clarkistan's GDP to fluctuations in the components of total spending.

Clarkistan's economy is <em><u>more </u></em>sensitive to fluctuations in GDP than Kimberlei's economy. This is because the personal income tax has <em><u>  reduced  </u></em> Kimerlei's multiplier.

Explanation:

As Kimberlei multiplier is lower, the government spending fluctuation will have a lower impact than in Clarkistan as the goverment spending multiplier in the latter is higher thus, a fluctuation increases or decrease the GDP in a higher proportion.

Clarkistan Economy is more sensitive as their government has a higher multiplier when it decreases for recessions it will increase by a higher amount

while Kimberlei as the income tax decreases th effect of the multiplier It is lower. thus the change in GDP is also lower
