A constitutional amendment is passed that requires the government to have an annually balanced budget in the sense that changes in spending should be matched by equivalent changes in taxes. Should the government desire to increase GDP by $25 billion and meet the provisions of the law it:

a. Cannot possibly reach its objective without breaking the law
b. Could increase spending by $25 billion and reduce taxes by $25 billion
c. Could increase spending by $25 billion and increase taxes by $25 billion
d. Could increase spending by $30 billion and increase taxes by $25 billion

there was no passage listed but using the process of elimination i'd say it was d. the high economy would do the opposite. i don't see how low prices would affect it. high unemployment is possible but i feel d is the better answer.

heterothermic organisms include those organisms that can switch between homeothermic (having body temperature higher than environment) and poikilothermic (having variation in internal body temperature) strategies.

some migratory birds show heterothermy as they decrease their metabolic rate during cold nights to keep their body temperature low. drop in metabolic rate allows increase in production efficiency of birds that reduces the internal body temperature to make it equal to external cold temperature during cold nights.

thus, the correct answer is 'birds allow their temperature drop in order to increase their production efficiency.'

a manufacturer of printed circuit boards uses exponential smoothing with trend to forecast monthly demand of its product. at the end of december, the company wishes to forecast sales for january. the estimate of trend through november has been 200 additional boards sold per month. average sales have been around 1000 units per month. the demand for december was 1100 units. the company uses α = 0.20 and β = 0.10. make a forecast including trend for the month of january.
