Arthur, the ruler of Avalon, has asked for your help with the economy of his country. Arthur's economic minister provides you with the following information:Work-eligible population: 30 million Labor force: 24 million Employed people: 21 million Frictionally unemployed people: 2 million Structurally unemployed people: 1.5 million Arthur would like to know whether his kingdom is enjoying an expansion or suffering a recession. See if you can advise him. Give all numeric answers to two decimals. King Arthur, right now Avalon's unemployment rate is %, but Avalon's natural rate of unemployment is ___%. Therefore, the Avalon economy is currently in a(an) (enter expansion or recession).

King Arthur, right now Avalon's unemployment rate is 12.5% but Avalon's natural rate of unemployment is 14.58%. Therefore, the Avalon economy is currently in a expansion.

Explanation:

Number of Unemployed = Labor force - Employed

Number of Unemployed = 24 - 21

Number of Unemployed = 3

The unemployment rate = (3/24)*100

The unemployment rate = 12.5%

The Natural unemployment rate = Frictional Rate + Structural unemployment Rate

The Natural unemployment rate = [(2+1.5)/24]*100

The Natural unemployment rate = (3.5/24) * 100

The Natural unemployment rate = 14.58%

From the solution, the current unemployment rate less than natural rate,  thus the Avalon economy is currently in a expansion

x=3

step-by-step explanation:

this is really simple i saw that there was only one term (5x) and thought if that was 15 what would i have to multiply everything else to get it there? well if 5x became 15 then x would have to be 3 so plug the 3 in the x for the other equations and you get 15 for the other ones. so there you go. : )
