Answer:

1: The correction option is B) Negative

Explanation

In economic theory, the Philips curve depicts the relationship between unemployment and inflation as a negative one. In order words, when inflation goes up, unemployment reduces.

The logic behind that thinking is, that inflation, which is the general increase in prices of goods/commodities and services is good for business. Business owners are quick to adjust to higher prices regardless of how it is induced and sometimes even profit from it in sectors not affected by inflation. So in such sectors, as business improves,  it is assumed that there is a requirement to being in more hands to help with the expansion of the business.

2. The correct option is B) Holds for certain time periods

Explanation

Social scientists and researchers have plotted the data across various periods (20 years) using data from the US economy.

The following results emerged:

  • the traditional relationship between inflation and unemployment held in 2001 during the mild recession triggered by the 9/11 situation. Unemployment took an upward spiral averaging an increase of 6% while inflation nosedived by 2.5%;
  • Another snapshot was taken in the mid-2000s. This time unemployment went belly-up by several degrees, while inflation took off in the opposite direction by almost 5% before receding in 2006 when unemployment bottomed;
  • In another analysis, the consumer price index took a steep downward dive during the Great Recession. This time, unemployment took a bullish charge, going up as much as 10%
  • This negative relationship failed to hold between 2012 to 2015. Both factors developed a positive relationship and moved in the same direction;
  • There has also been a loss of strength in the negative relationship as also seen in recent times. Specifically, between 2016 to 2019 where unemployment has steadily receded to 50-year lows, with inflation remained steady at an average of 2%.  

So the correct answer is B.

3. The correct answer is True:

Explanation

As seen from the analysis above, the negative relationship remains largely true for most of the periods examined. Hence it is more pragmatic to expect a dip in unemployment whenever there is a spike in the CPI.

Mia wants to borrow £6000 and repay it, with interest, after two years. she sees two offers for loans: offer 1 compound interest
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

she is wrong, offer 2 results in lower interests

Step-by-step explanation:

total amount paid if offer 1 is accepted:

$6,000 x (1 + 3%)² = $6,000 x 1.0609 = $6,365.40

she will pay $365.40 in interests

total amount paid if offer 2 is accepted:

($6,000 x 1.01) x 1.05 = $6,060 x 1.05 = $6,363

she will pay $363 in interests

Compounding interest refers to interest that earns more interest itself, e.g. in the first offer, the $180 of interests charged for the first year will earn $5.40 in extra interests. While offer 2 only charges $60 in interests during the first year which will in turn earn $3 of interests. The difference between both offers is that interest charges in offer 1 earn more interests than the interest in offer 2 = $5.40 - $3 = $2.40

Dawn Dough and Dale earned different amounts $9.35,$8.52,and$8.25 dale and Doug earned about $9.00 Dawn earned exactly $1.10less
Zielflug [23.3K]

We know that the amounts earned by Dawn, Doug and Dale are from the list of numbers: $9.35, $8.52 and $8.25

We also know that Dale and Doug earned close to $9.00

And that Dawn earned $1.10 less than Dale

Let the amount earned by Dale be x

⇒ Amount earned by Dawn is x - 1.1

If we notice the list of numbers, we see that $9.35 and $8.25 differ by $1.1

Hence, Dale earned $9.35 and Dawn earned $8.25

We are now left with $8.52, which should be the amount earned by Doug. This is correct, since we also know that Doug earned close to $9.

Hence, the amounts earned are:

Dale: $9.35

Doug: $8.52

Dawn: $8.25
