Answer:

39 years

Explanation:

Under the rule of 70, the economy doubles its real GDP per capita income

In this the computation is done by dividing the 70 by the annual growth rate

So, the formula is shown below:

Time period = Rule of 70 ÷ growth rate

where,

Growth rate is 1.8%

So, the time period at which the GDP doubles is

= 70 ÷ 1.8

= 39 years

By dividing the rule of 70 by the growth rate we can find the number of years at which the GDP doubles

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

graciously accept the blame for not making her meaning clear.

Explanation:

In business communication when the message being passed is not clearly understood for one reason or the the other (in this case because of language barrier). The polite action to take is first to graciously accept blame for not passing the message across clearly, then find a solution to the communication gap.

Talking louder to the other party will be the wrong step to take as it will appear rude, so offer an apology which will give a positive environment.

The other options of ending the conversation and asking an Italian business man to explain what you mean in simple terms will be taken as a slight.
