Answer:A. Becky is liable for the damages to Mr. Edwards' garden, because she exercised control over her agent, Maggie.

The waiting time at which 10 percent of the people would continue to hold is given as 2.3

<h3>How to solve for the waiting time</h3>

We have to solve for X ~ Exponential(λ).

then E(X) = 1/λ = 3,

= 0.3333

Remember that the cumulative distribution function of X is F(x) = 1 - e^(-λx). ;  x is equal to the  time in over case

For 10 percent of the people we would have a probability of

10/100 = 0.1

we are to find

P(X ≤ t)

= 1 - e^(0.3333)(t) = 0.1

Our concern is the value of t

Then we take the like terms

1-0.1 = e^(0.3333)(t)

1/0.9 = e^(0.3333)(t)

t = 3 * ln(1/0.9)

= 0.3157

KengaRu [80]

Answer:

This is a recessionary gap of $60 billion.

Simple multiplier = 1/ (1-.75) = 1/.25 = 4

The government would then have to increase its spending on goods and merchandise by total gap divided my simple multiplier.

$60 billion/ 4 = $15 billionTransfer multiplier - Each dollar of a Transfer payment will increase real GDP by Transfer Payment Multiplier

= MPC / (1-MPC) = 0.75 / (1-0.75) = 0.75/0.25 = $3

The government must increase spending on transfer payments by total gap divided by transfer payment multiplier = $60 billion / $3 = $20 billion
