Maddie's nominal income was $33,000 in 2012. In 2013, because of her excellent work ethic, she received a raise that increased h

Trava [24]

Answer:

-6.7 %; Hurt

Explanation:

1. Calculate Maddie's inflation adjusted income

$\text{Inflation adjusted income} = \text{2012 income} \times \dfrac{\text{2013 CPI}}{\text{2012 CPI}}\\\\= 33 000 \times \dfrac{125}{110} = \$37 500$

Maddie should be earning $37 500 in 2013 just to keep up with inflation.

2. Calculate the percent change in Maddie's real income.

Maddie is "real" salary is only $35 000.

$\text{\% Change} = \dfrac{\text{real - expected}}{\text{expected}} \times 100 \, \%\\\\= \dfrac{35 000 - 37 500 }{37 500} \times \, 100 \% = \dfrac{-2500}{37 500} \times 100 \, \% = \mathbf{-6.7 \, \%}$

The percent change in Maddie's real income is -6.7 %.

Maddie was certainly hurt by this inflation.

Ganezh [65]

Answer: The heat source for Earth’s atmosphere and oceans is the sun, which heats from above instead of below.

Explanation:

In the experiment, the source of heat is the burner below the pot. On Earth this is completely different as the source of the heat on Earth is the Sun which heats us from above instead of below.

The Convection currents still flow in the same direction however because as the sun heats air particles on Earth's surface, they rise but then cool as they keep going up. This makes them go back down where they are then heated up again.

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

$\boxed{\text{26 sheep}}$

Explanation:

1. Convert acres to hectares

1 ha = 2.471 ac

$\text{Area} = \text{8 ac} \times \dfrac{\text{1 ha}}{\text{2.471 ac}} = \text{3.2 ha}$

2. Calculate the number of sheep

You can put 1 sheep on 0.125 ha

$\text{No. of sheep} = \text{3.2 ha} \times \dfrac{\text{1 sheep}}{\text{0.125 ha}} = \textbf{26 sheep}\\\\\text{RuPd can raise $\boxed{\textbf{26 sheep}}$ on 8 ac}\\$
