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%.

A manufacturer of pickup trucks is required to recall all the trucks manufactured in a given year for the repair of possible def
Crank

Answer: 2%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the event of having defective steering and B be the vent of having defective brake linings.

Given: P(A)  = 0.03  P(B) = 0.05

P(neither A nor B ) = 0.94

Using formula: P(either A nor B) = 1- P(neither A nor B )

= 1-0.94

i.e.  P(either A nor B) =0.06

Using formula:P(A and B) = P(A)+P(B)-P(either A or B)

P(A and B) =0.03+0.05-0.06

= 0.02

Hence, the percentage of the trucks have both defects = 2%
