Janet yellen the chairperson of the federal reserve, has received a report that the unemployment rate has gone very high and gdp has gone very low. what steps should she take to alleviate this problem?

Clarification: Federal Reserve's ability to positively impact unemployment rate or GDP growth is limited and mostly, indirect. Policies, incentives, subsidies, regulations, and internal and external agreements can't be changed, approved or negotiated by Federal Reserve. Those decisions are Government and Congress responsibility.

Having said this, Federal Reserve can:

1. Reduce interest rate to make credit less expensive for businesses and households, and as a consequence businesses can hire more employees and households can purchase more goods and services.

2. Buy government debt or Treasury bonds for funding government and it increases the money supply in the economy by trading bonds in exchange for cash to the general public.

question - in 1827, john walker, a druggist in a small english town, tipped a splint with sulphur, chlorate of potash, and sulphid of antimony, and rubbed it on sandpaper, and it burst into flame. the druggist had discovered the first friction-chemical match, the kind we use to-day. it is called friction-chemical because it is made by mixing certain chemicals together and rubbing them. although walker's match did not require the bottle of acid, nevertheless it was not a good one. it could be lighted only by hard rubbing, and it sputtered and threw fire in all directions. in a few years, however, phosphorus was substituted on the tip for antimony, and the change worked wonders. the match could now be lighted with very little rubbing, and it was no longer necessary to have sandpaper upon which to rub it. it would ignite when rubbed on any dry surface, and there was no longer any sputtering. this was the phosphorus match, the match with which we are so familiar. according the paragraph what was the benefit of the new phosphorus match? it burst into flame when rubbed on sandpaper. it was made by mixing chemicals. it could be ignited on any dry surface. it threw fire in all directions.
