unemployment rate was not bad. Obama has brought us into greater debt but has helped reduced the unemployment rate drastically. Thanks to this there is less crime in America. If we want to be a strong committed country there should be no one without a job. The unemployment rate before Obama in 2000 was 4.2 and once Obama came to officer the unemployment rate is 7.9. Obama must reduce the unemployment rate. Unemployment only makes the countries debt go up‚ and more people turn to crime because they

RATE OF REACTIONS. The reaction rate (rate of reaction) or speed of reaction for a reactant or product in a particular reaction is intuitively defined as how fast or slow a reaction takes place. For example‚ the oxidative rusting of iron under the atmosphere is a slow reaction that can take many years‚ but the combustion of cellulose in a fire is a reaction that takes place in fractions of a second (right). Chemical kinetics is the part of physical chemistry that studies reaction rates. The concepts

1.Female Literacy a)Main observation: countries with low fertility rates have high literacy rates and vice versa. Tthe fertility rate of a country is thus inversely proportional to female literacy rate. At the literacy rate of 60%‚ fertility rate is about 7.72. At the litaracy rate of 100%‚ fertility rate is about 1.21. b)Cost of having a baby explicit short term: Birth and pre-natal expenses long term: Housing Food Education Transport Clothing Healthcare

Effects of Raising Interest Rates If a central bank increases the base rate‚ this tends to increase all major interest rates in the economy. This means interest rates for both savers and borrowers will increase. Higher interest rates will have various economic effects: 1. Increases the cost of borrowing. Interest payments on credit cards and loans will be more expensive. Therefore this discourages people from borrowing and saving. People who already have loans will have less disposable income

’Exchange Rate’ The price of a nation’s currency in terms of another currency. An exchange rate thus has two components‚ the domestic currency and a foreign currency‚ and can be quoted either directly or indirectly. In a direct quotation‚ the price of a unit of foreign currency is expressed in terms of the domestic currency. In an indirect quotation‚ the price of a unit of domestic currency is expressed in terms of the foreign currency. An exchange rate that does not have the domestic currency

Mortality rate is a measure of the number of deaths (in general‚ or due to a specific cause) in a population‚ scaled to the size of that population‚ per unit of time. Mortality rate is typically expressed in units of deaths per 1000 individuals per year; thus‚ a mortality rate of 9.5 (out of 1000) in a population of 1‚000 would mean 9.5 deaths per year in that entire population‚ or 0.95% out of the total. It is distinct from morbidity rate‚ which refers to the number of individuals in poor health
