Answer:

40 students

Explanation:

The cost of the bus is $480

For x students, the cost of each ticket will be 35 - 0.30x

The total cost of the tickets for x students will be x(35 - 0.30x)

To find the number of students that will make the cost per student equal to $33, we solve for x:

<u>480+ x(35 - 0.30x)</u>  =35

                x

480+ x(35 - 0.30x<u>)</u>   = 35x

480 + 35x - 0.30x²   = 35x

480                            = 0.30x²

1,600                          = x²

40                               = x

The cost per student will be $35 if the number of students is 40; it will be less than $35 if the number of students is greater than 40.

If the Ricardian equivalence theorem LOADING... is not​ relevant, then an​ income-tax-rate cut A. will result in a multiple time
LenKa [72]

Answer:

The correct answer is D. will result in a multiple times higher decrease in equilibrium real GDP in the short​ run; however, a​ tax-rate reduction will increase the​ automatic-stabilizer properties of the tax​ system, so equilibrium real GDP would be less stable.

Explanation:

Ricardian Equivalence is an economic theory that suggests that when a government increases expenses financed with debt to try to stimulate demand, demand does not really undergo any change.

This is because increases in the public deficit will lead to higher taxes in the future. To keep their consumption pattern stable, taxpayers will reduce consumption and increase their savings in order to offset the cost of this future tax increase.

If taxpayers reduce their consumption and increase their savings by the same amount as the debt to be returned by the government, there is no effect on aggregate demand.

The fundamental concept of Ricardian equivalence is that it does not matter which method the government chooses to increase spending, whether by issuing public debt or through taxes (applying an expansive fiscal policy), the result will be the same and demand will remain unchanged.

Which of the following statements is false? a. A credit is a deposit to a checking account. b. A debit is a withdrawal from a ch
allsm [11]

Answer:

c. An overdraft is a fee your bank charges you for opening a checking account.

Explanation:

Checking account is a deposit account with a bank or any  financial institution that allows the owner of such account to make withdrawals and deposits. They are also known as demand accounts or transactional accounts. They are very liquid and allows for countless deposits and withdrawals and can be obtained  by using automated teller machines, checks and electronic debits, and a number of  other methods.

A checking account is unlike other bank accounts like less liquid savings or investments account it allows for countless withdrawals and unlimited deposits, and savings accounts sometimes limit both.

The statement that an overdraft is a fee that banks charges for opening a checking account is false.

Overdraft is a form of extension of credit from a finiancial institution and often granted when an account reaches zero. it allow such account holder to continue withdrawing money even though the account has no funds  or insufficient funds that would cater  for and cover the amount of the withdrawal. So it is not the fee that bank charges for opening a checking account, instead what checking account offers is overdraft protection in which if a checking account owner write a check or make a purchase than the funds in the checking account, the bank may cover the difference.
