Answer: A. greater than 5.3 percent because the value in the numerator of the formula for the unemployment rate would increase more than the value in the denominator.

Explanation:

The unemployment rate is calculated by dividing the number of those who are unemployed but actively seeking employment by the labor force.

= Unemployed / Labor force

If the labor force participation rate had remained unchanged then that would mean that the denominator for the unemployment rate did not change while unemployment did.

The unemployment rate will therefore be greater than 5.3% because the numerator which is the unemployment figure, would have increase more than the denominator.

What did president hoover do to devise strategies for improving the economy?
olga nikolaevna [1]

The above answer is definitely correct in its details.  I'd just like to emphasize a couple of important ideas about Hoover's response.

<span>He tried to do more to fix the economy than any president had ever done before.  The government had been very hands-off up to that point.He believed the government should not go in debt no matter what.  This limited what he was willing to do.  Please note that economists back then agreed with this idea so it's not like Hoover was just being mean.  In fact, FDR believed the same thing and it's often said that he undermined the New Deal by trying to balance the budget too soon.</span>

So, overall what I want to point out is that Hoover did more than anyone else, and he did what most economists of the time would have said was the right thing to do.  But it didn't work and so he's seen as one of the worst presidents ever, which seems a bit unfair.
