Two pairs of statements about Jeff's housing expenditures are given below. How can both pairs of statements be true?
Irina18 [472]

Explanation:

Pair 1 is true if Jeff's monthly income is $600/20% = $3,000.

Pair 2 is true if Jeff's monthly income is $1200/10% = $12,000.

Both pairs can be true if Jeff's monthly income increased by a factor of 4 in the 20 years from 1990 to 2010.

Obviously, Jeff spent more on housing in 2010. (Fortunately for Jeff, that larger expenditure was a smaller fraction of his income.)

Fully explain why an inefficient resource allocation leads an economy to produce at a point inside its production possibilities
Stella [2.4K]
Production possibilities frontier, PPF, is defined as a representation of the point at which a country’s economy is most efficiently producing its goods and services. Efficient production means allocating its resources in the best way possible.
<span>
The points in the PPF shifts outward. The more efficient production is the more the PPF shifts outward. With this in mind, any point found inside the PPF means that there is inefficient resource allocation. If the PPF shifts inward, it means that the efficiency production is regressing and available resources are not fully used to its potential which will lead to a downward turn of the economy.

NO LINKS!! Please help me with this problem​

{\qquad\qquad\huge\underline{{\sf Answer}}}

The given figure shows a vertical hyperbola with its centre at origin, and as we observe the figure, we can conclude that :

Length of transverse axis is :

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: 2b = 12

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: b = 6

length of conjugate axis is :

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: 2a = 8

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: a = 4

Equation of hyperbola ~

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:    \cfrac{ {y}^{2} }{ {b}^{2} } - \cfrac{  {x}^{2} }{ {a}^{2} }  = 1

plug in the values ~

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:    \cfrac{ {y}^{2} }{ {6}^{2} } - \cfrac{  {x}^{2} }{ {4}^{2} }  = 1

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:    \cfrac{ {y}^{2} }{ {36}^{} } - \cfrac{  {x}^{2} }{ {16}^{} }  = 1

Suppose a farm has pens for raising insects. A pen is shaped as a rectangle that measures x meters wide and 2x meters long and h
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

1.2 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of pen = 2x meters

width of pen = x meters

shape of pen is  rectangular

we know that area of rectangle is given by length * width

Thus, area of the pen is x*2x = 2x^2

It is also given that area of pen is 2.8 square meters.

Equating numerical value of area  with area in terms of x, we have

2x^2 = 2.88\\=> x^2 = 2.88/2\\=> x^2 = 1.44\\=> x = 1.2

Thus value of x is 1.2 meters.

What is 5 to the power of 5 - 9 (200 divided by 4) - (10x90) divided by 5 - (4 to the power of 4) x 5 + 156 - 256
yanalaym [24]

5^5-9(200/4)-(10*90)/5-4^4(5)+156-256

= 3125-9( 200/4)-(10*90)/5-(4^4)(5)+156-256

= 3125-(9)(50)- (10*90)/5-(4^4)(5)+156-256

= 3125-450- (10*90)/5-(4^4)(5)+156-256

= 2675-(10*90)/5-(4^4)(5)+156-256

= 2675 - 900/5 - (4^4)(5)+156-256

= 2675 - 180 - (4^4)(5)+156-256

= 2495 - (4^4)(5)+156-256

= 2495 - 1280 + 156 -256

= 1215 + 156 - 256

= 1371 - 256

= 1115


I hope that's help , please if you have question(s) just let me know !
