Graph the equation by plotting three points. if all three are correct, the line will appear. 2y = 5x + 11

Pick the following

x = 0 in which case

2y = 11    and

y = 11/2

y = 5.5

============

x = 1

2y = 5x + 11

2y = 5*1 + 11

2y = 5 + 11

2y = 16

y = 8.    

==========

x = - 2 and x = - 10 are done the same way.

according to this law, when unemployment goes up by 1%, gdp drops by 2%. in the question, unemployment rate goes from 2% to 5%, meaning unemployment goes up by 3%, so the gdp drops by 6%. thus the effect is a drop in gdp by 6%.
