Which situation most directly illustrates a possible outcome of a fiscal policy?

1 answer:

5 0

Answer: B. The federal funding available for education declines.
Step-by-step explanation:
Government fiscal policy pertains to spending and taxation strategies aimed at influencing economic direction. Generally, it can be categorized into Expansionary or Contractionary policies. An Expansionary policy involves increasing government spending or lowering taxes to provide consumers with more disposable income. Conversely, a Contractionary policy implies decreasing spending or raising taxes. Thus, a decline in federal funds for education could result from a Contractionary fiscal approach.

One of your peers claims that boys do better in math classes than girls. Together you run two independent simple random samples

babunello [8412]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

To determine whether boys excel in math classes compared to girls, two random samples were collected:

Sample 1

X₁: score achieved by a boy in calculus

n₁= 15

X[bar]₁= 82.3%

S₁= 5.6%

Sample 2

X₂: score obtained by a girl in calculus

n₂= 12

X[bar]₂= 81.2%

S₂= 6.7%

To estimate a confidence interval for the difference between the average percentages of boys and girls in calculus, it's essential that both variables come from normally distributed populations.

For utilizing a pooled variance t-test, it is also required that the population variances, though unknown, are assumed to be equal.

The confidence interval can then be calculated with:

[(X[bar]_1 - X[bar]₂) ± $t_{n_1+n_2-2;1-\alpha /2}$ * $Sa*\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1} +\frac{1}{n_2} }$ ]

$Sa= \sqrt{\frac{(n_1-1)S^2_1+(n_2-1)S^2_2}{n_1+n_2-2} } = \sqrt{\frac{14*(5.6^2)+11*(6.7^2)}{15+12-2} }= 6.108= 6.11$

$t_{n_1+n_2-2;1-\alpha /2}= t_{15+12-2;1-0.05}= t_{25;0.95}= 1.708$

[(82.3 - 81.2) ± 1.708 * (6.11 * $\sqrt{\frac{1}{15}+\frac{1}{12} }$ ]

[-2.94; 5.14]

Using a 90% confidence level, the interval [-2.94; 5.14] is expected to encompass the true difference between the average percentages achieved by boys and girls in calculus.

I hope this is of assistance!

There was 5/8 of a pie left in the fridge. Daniel are 1/4 of the left over pie. How much of a pie did he eat

AnnZ [9099]

Answer:

vvvv

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Convert 1/4 into eighths to be able to subtract it from 5/8.

1/4 x 2 = 2/8

2. Deduct 2/8 from 5/8.

5/8 - 2/8 = 3/8

Daniel consumed 2/8 of the remaining pie, and now there are 3/8 left.
