Step-by-step explanation:

The reserve ratio is the central bank's mandate for banks to keep a certain reserve requirements, which are excess cash deposits that must be kept on hand and not loaned out.

Raising the ratio is contractionary since less loans can be made, but this also solidifies banks' balance sheets.

If the Federal Reserve instead lowers the reserve ratio through an expansionary monetary policy, commercial banks are required to hold less cash on hand and can make more loans.

A bag contains purple marbles and blue marbles, 49 in total. The number of purple marbles is 6 less than 4 times the number of b
brilliants [131]

Purple = p

Blue = b


Step 1: Write as an algebraic equation.

p = 4b - 6

p + b = 49


Step 2: Rearrange p + b = 49 to make p the subject.

p + b = 49

p = 49 - b


Step 3: Write p = 4b - 6 and p = 49 - b into one equation.

p = 4b - 6 = 49 - b


Step 4: Move all b values onto one side.

p = 5b = 55


Step 5: Find the value of one blue marble.

5b = 55

b = 11


Step 6: If there are 11 blue marbles and there are 49 marbles in total, then find the number of purple marbles.

p = 49 - b

p = 49 - 11

p = 38


ANSWER:

There are 38 blue marbles.
