The main reason why the Japanese liberalized the bank mergers in Japan was to protect the economy and prevent an economic crash.

<h3>What is Financial Liberalization?</h3>

This refers to the removal of regulatory control in the financial sector to promote economic growth.

The government of Japan faced an economic crash that threatened to cripple the economy due to stock market crash, failing banks, etc and there was the use of risk-based capital to try and prevent this, amongst other solutions.

Hence, we can see that the key aspects of the liberalization program were:

  • Mergers
  • Acquisitions.

The key criticism of the program is that it failed to address the scale of the problem and the solution was only short-term.

The Johnson Family is looking to buy a new house on Belmont Road. Their insurance deductible is increased by $500 if they live m
user100 [1]

Answer:

a) Absolute Value Inequality => Absolute(0 + y) < 2

b) -2 < y < 2

Which means, Johnson Family has to live within the range of -2 to +2 from the fire department. Otherwise, they will have to pay 500 USD as increased deductible.

Explanation:

<u><em>Johnson Family has to live within the range of -2 to +2 from the fire department. </em></u>

<em>a) Absolute Value Equation:</em>

Absolute(0 + y) < 2

where y represent the location of the new house and 0 represents the location of the fire department.

Furthermore,

<em>Absolute(0 + y) < 2 = (0 + x) < 2 when (0 + y) is +ve. </em>

and

<em>Absolute(0+y) <2 =  -(0 + x) < 2 when (0 + y) is -ve. </em>

b) When (0 + y) is +ve,

we have,  (0 + y) < 2.

<em>Solving for y and subtracting 0 from both sides. </em>

0-0 + y < 2 - 0

<em>y < 2</em>

and when (0 + y) is -ve,

<em>we have, - (0 + y) < 2. </em>

Solving for y:

- 0 - y < 2

multiplying negative from both sides

<em>y > - 2</em>

<em>So, we have -2 < y < 2 </em>

<em>Johnson Family has to live within the range of -2 to +2 from the fire department. Otherwise, they will have to pay 500 USD as increased deductible. </em>

Suppose the demand function​ (D) for golf clubs​ is: Qequals150minus1.00​P, where P is the price paid by consumers in dollars pe
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

P = $75 per club

n= 75,000 clubs

Explanation:

The demand and supply functions are:

(D): Q=150-1.00P\\(S): Q=1.00P\\

The equilibrium price is the price that yields a quantity demanded equal to the quantity supplied:

150-1.00P=1.00P\\P=\frac{150}{2}\\P=\$75

The number of units sold at that price is:

n=1,000*(1.00*75)\\n=75,000\ units
