Suppose you decide to build a model to explain why the average worker in a particular occupation works more hours during some weeks than during others. If you graph the data with hours worked on the vertical axis and your explanatory variable on the horizontal axis, will the relationship be upward-sloping or downward-sloping? O The relationship will be upward-sloping. O Neither. There is no slope. O Neither. There would be some oscillation. O The relationship will be downward-sloping.

Economic Activity m 12/1914 08/1918 01/1912 01/1913 03/1919 Referring to the graph above, an economic variable that had peaked in December 1911, November 1914, and February 1919 is likely a O leading procyclical Onone of the above Time O lagging countercyclical O lagging procyclical O leading countercyclical variable.
The relationships between some economic variables w, y, and z and another economic variable, x, are shown in the graph above. Notice that the horizontal axis is labeled “x” since they are all functions of x but the vertical axis is not labeled. 1-1 Does the vertical axis need a label in order for you to be able to understand the graph?1-2What value of x minimizes w?

Refresh your Math & Graphing Skills SOP-A D For each of the following scenarios, indicate whether the relationship between the two variables is positive or negative, as well as which line on the previous graph has a slope that reflects this type of relationship. X-axis Hint: The X-axis and Y-axis on the graph are not labeled intentionally. You need to substitute the variables from each scenario for the horizontal and vertical axis. For example, in the first scenario, X-axis should be labeled The average grade received" and Y-axis should be labeled "The number of hours spent studying". Scenario As the number of hours spent studying rises, the average grade received rises. As the number of hours spent studying falis, the likelihood of getting an A falls. As the number of hours spent watching TV rises, the average grade received falls. True True or False: Line B has a slope of infinity. O False www Relationship Line Y
