y = sin (.5x). The coefficient b in the above graph is 2, so the period of the sine curve changed by a factor of 1/2, making the new period Ï, or about 3.14. y = sin (.5x). For the above graph, the coefficient b = 1/2, so the period of the sine curve will be twice as long as it usually is, or 4 Ï. y = sin (3x).
The term silent revolution refers here to a shift in the prevailing paradigm for international economic and political relations, away from tendencies toward autarky, insularity, mercantilism, and governmental planning and control over economic activity; and toward a common set of beliefs and policies based on open international trade and finance, competitive pricing and production decisions, and cooperation between countries.
The measure compares the actual GDP (output) of an economy and the potential GDP (efficient output). When the economy is running an output gap, either positive or negative, it is thought to be running at an inefficient rate as the economy is either overworking or underworking its resources.Economic theory suggests that positive output gap will lead to inflation as production and labor costs rise.
