What is not considered a characteristic of the money supply in the United States?

1 answer:

3 0

The monetary supply in the United States is based on fiat money which means that it is not true that A) America's fiat money is currently backed by gold deposits at the Federal Reserve.

The American dollar is a fiat currency which means that it is not backed by any sort of mineral deposits be it gold or silver. The gold deposits at the federal reserves are therefore not used to back the dollar.

The dollar is instead backed by the U.S. government and its policies which aim to keep the American economy stable.

The other options are wrong because:

It is true that the USD being legal tender means it can be used to pay for debt.
It is also true that the demand for money increases based on the volume of transactions in the economy.

In conclusion, the U.S. Dollar is not backed by the gold deposits in the Federal reserve but rather by the American government itself.

Maria is a hard-working college sophomore. One Sunday, she decides to work nonstop until she has answered 100 practice problems

sdas [7]

Answer:

The correct answers are:

i. The marginal, or additional, gain from Maria’s first hour of work, from 8:00 AM to 9:00 AM, is 40 problems.

ii. The marginal gain from Maria’s third hour of work, from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM, is 20 problems

iii. 2 hours working on problems, 2 hours reading (c)

Explanation:

i. The marginal gain from 8:00 AM to 9:00 AM is calculated thus:

work done at 8:00 AM = 0 problems

Work done at 9:00 AM = 40 problems

Marginal gain = (Work done at 9:00 AM) - (work done at 8:00) = 40 - 0 = 40 problems

ii. work done at 10:00 AM = 70 problems

work done at 11:00 AM = 90 problems

Marginal gain = 90 - 70 = 20 problems

iii. To get the best exam score, the most number of problems possible in total must be answered within the 4-hour period, and this is determined as follows:

we are told that Maria gets tired as time progresses and the number of questions answered reduces we notice the following numbers of questions answered in each hour:

8:00 AM to 9:00 AM = 40 - 0 = 40 problems (hour 1)

9:00 AM to 10:00 AM = 70 - 40 = 30 problems (hour 2)

10:00 AM to 11:00 AM = 90 - 70 = 20 problems (hour 3)

11:00 AM to Noon = 100 - 90 = 10 problems (hour 4)

Also, we are told that;

1 hour of reading = 25 problems

Comparing the reading and solving problems, we see that the number of problems solved in hour-1 and hour-2 (40 and 30 respectively) are more than the equivalent number of problems solved in reading for 1 hour, while hour-3 and hour-4 (20 and 10 respectively), have lesser equivalent number of problems each, than reading for one hour. Therefore to make the most out of the 4 hours, Maria will spend the first 2 hours solving problems and the next two hours reading, giving a total of: 40 + 30 + 25 + 25 = 120 problems solved.
