Scenario: aggregate consumption equation suppose that the aggregate consumption function is given by the equation: c = 200 + 0.8 yd, where c represents consumption and yd represents disposable income. reference: ref 25-9 (scenario: aggregate consumption equation) according to the scenario aggregate consumption equation, if disposable income is $500, aggregate consumption is:
a. $0.
b. $200.
c. $400.
d. $600.

The correct answer and the letter d. $600.

Explanation:

A consumption equation relates aggregate consumption with disposable income (income minus taxes). In this way, it shows how the increase in aggregate disposable income, that is, of the whole economy, impacts aggregate consumption. In this case, we have the consumption function given by: C = 200 + 0.8YD, and the disposable income is $ 500. Like this,

C = 200 + 0.8YD

C = 200 + 0.8 (500)

C = 600.

That is, by including the disposable income of $ 500 in the consumption equation, we will have an aggregate consumption of $ 600.

 The correct options are

(B) the value of b is

(C) As the value of the exponent decreases, each previous value is divided by 6.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given that Tori examined the pattern of exponents in the following table :

We are to select the true statements based on the above pattern.

We will be using the following property of exponents :

Therefore, we get

and

Also, the value of the exponent is decreasing and we see that

So, each previous value is divided by 6.

Thus, the correct options are

(B) the value of b is

(C) As the value of the exponent decreases, each previous value is divided by 6.
