Write a Java program using jGRASP directions are as follows:

    • Uses a while loop to print the numbers from 3 - 19.
    • Uses a do-while loop to print the numbers from 42 - 56.
    • Uses a for loop to print the numbers from 87 - 95.
    • Asks the user for 2 numbers. Uses a loop to print all numbers between the given numbers, inclusive.
      • Note: Consider that your user's second number can be lower! (see example below)
      • Note: Also consider that your user might give you two of the same number.
  • Your program MUST:
    • Use a while, do-while, and for loop. The fourth loop is your choice.
    • Actively use in-line comments stating what each section of code does.
    • Use try/catch, BUT only if necessary.
    • Your program must conform to the Java coding standards
    • This is an example of what your program should output:
  • I'm going to print out the numbers 3-19 using a while loop:
    3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19
    
    I'm going to print out the numbers 42-56 using a do-while loop:
    42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56
    
    I'm going to print out the numbers 87-95 using a for loop:
    87 88 89 90 91 92 93 94 95
    
    Now I'll print whatever numbers you'd like!
    Give me a starting number:
    2
    Give me an ending number:
    -4
    I see that your ending number is lower. Okay, I'll count down!
    2 1 0 -1 -2 -3 -4

The rate of inflation over the last two years has averaged 2% per year. At the same time, John feels like he is able to purchase fewer goods and services with his annual salary. Therefore:\

Both John’s nominal and real salaries must have declined

John must not have received any pay raise

John’s nominal salary must have declined

John’s real salary must have declined

29.

Under which of the following circumstances is inflation most costly to an individual?

Group of answer choices

The inflation rate has averaged 5% for each of the last five years and an individual has received a 6% pay raise for each of the last five years.

An individual's wage is indexed to the rate of inflation.

Joe is a minimum wage earner and the minimum wage has not changed for the last five years.

Joe has a contract at work that guarantees him a cost of living adjustment equal to the going rate of inflation. Last year inflation was 10%.

Consider two countries, A and B.
In the last 30 years, the average annual growth rate of the real per capita GDP of country A is 1.5%
and country B is 2.0 %.
In the current year, the real per capita GDP of country A is $10,000, and the real per capita GDP of
country B is $X.
Based on the current real per capita GDP of the two countries and the average annual growth rate of
the real per capita GDP of the two countries in the last 30 years, we find that 25 years from now,
the two countries will have the same real per capita GDP.
(a) Solve for the real per capita GDP of country B in the current year, $X.
(b) According to the rule of 70, how many years will it take for country A to double its per capita real
GDP?
(c) Suppose that the production function of country A satisfies the assumption that the marginal
product of capital is positive but diminishing and that the growth of the real per capita GDP in
country A is driven purely by capital accumulation.
Then, would your answer in (b) tend to over-estimate or under-estimate the length of time that it
takes the country to double its real per capita GDP? Explain.
