As an elected official, you have been informed that real GDP is below its potential and that action should be taken to encourage economic growth and bring the economy to its long-run equilibrium. The marginal propensity to consume is 0.6, and the amount of new government spending is $700 billion. What is the multiplier? Compute this to the first place beyond the decimal.

2.5

Explanation:

Relevant Data provided

Marginal propensity to consume = 0.6

The computation of multiplier is shown below:-

Multiplier = 1 ÷ (1 - Marginal propensity to consume)

= 1 ÷ (1 - 0.6)

= 1 ÷ 0.4

= 2.5

Therefore for computing the multiplier we simply applied the above formula with the help of dividing 1 by marginal propensity to consume and after the result we divide the 1 by the result.

bd = 9 cm

step-by-step explanation:

in a 30°-60°-90° triangle, the ratio of side lengths is 1 : √3 : 2. that is, the longest side (hypotenuse) is twice the length of the shortest side.

all of the triangles in your geometry are 30°-60°-90° triangles. ac is the hypotenuse of δacd, and the short side of δabc.

the short side ad of δacd will be half the length of ac, so 3 cm. the hypotenuse ab of δabc will be twice the length of ac, so 12 cm. segment bd is the difference of the lengths ab and ad, so is

bd = ab -ad

bd = 12 cm - 3 cm = 9 cm

comment on side length ratios

you can figure the ratios of side lengths in a 30°-60°-90° triangle by considering the trig ratios of the angles. or you can figure the length of the altitude of an equilateral triangle of side length 2 using the pythagorean theorem.

the answer would be voluntary exchange -

"the act of buyers and sellers freely and willingly engaging in market transactions. moreover, transactions are made in such a way that both the buyer and the seller are better off after the exchange than before it occurred."

hope this : )
