Answer:

GDP will increase by 6% on decrease of the unemployment rate from 7% to 4%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that,

The unemployment rate decreases from 7% to 4%.

It is required to find the effect of this decrease on the GDP.

Since, we know,

<em>If the unemployment rate increases (or decreases) by 1%, then the GDP will decrease (or increase) by 2%.</em>

So, we get,

As the unemployment rate decreases by 3%, GDP will increase by double of 3% i.e. 6%

Hence, the GDP will increase by 6% on decrease of the unemployment rate from 7% to 4%.

If the law is basically if unemployment goes up 1% then the GDP goes down 2%, then the unemployment rate going down 3% means the GDP will go up 6%

Let f(x)= x^2-4x-c. Find a nonzero value of c such that f(c)=c.

Dimas [21]

Answer:

The nonzero value of c will be:

$c = 6$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function

$f\left(x\right)=\:x^2-4x-c$

$f\left(c\right)=\:c^2-4c-c$

$f(c) = c$

$c=\:c^2-4c-c$

switching the sides

$c^2-4c-c=c$

subtract c from both sides

$c^2-4c-c-c=c-c$

$c^2-6c=0$

$c\left(c-6\right)=0$

Using the zero factor principle

$\:If}\:ab=0\:\mathrm{then}\:a=0\:\mathrm{or}\:b=0\:\left(\mathrm{or\:both}\:a=0\:\mathrm{and}\:b=0\right)$

$c=0\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:c-6=0$

so, the solutions to the quadratic equations are:

$c=0,\:c=6$

Therefore, a nonzero value of c will be:

$c = 6$

When graphing the inequality y ≤ 2x − 4, the boundary line needs to be graphed first. Which graph correctly shows the boundary l

Volgvan

Answer:

See Below

Step-by-step explanation:

The boundary line follows the graph of y = 2x - 4 because it represents the line of maximum or minimum values the graph could take. y = 2x - 4 has a y-intercept of -4 because it is in slope-intercept form. It also has a slope of 2, so to find another point on the line, you can go up two and right one. Also, this inequality has a solid line because it is "less than or equal to" and a solid line represents the values that equal.
