![**Question 2**
Which equation is a plausible aggregate supply curve?
- ○ Y = 250 - 80r
- ○ π = 2 + 0.3 (Y - 75)
- ● Y = 50 - 1.25π
- ○ π = 5 - 0.4 (U - 6)
- ○ none of the above
**Explanation:**
In the context of the question, an aggregate supply curve represents the relationship between the total quantity of goods and services that firms are willing and able to produce and the overall price level. The chosen option (“Y = 50 - 1.25π”) suggests an inverse relationship between output (Y) and inflation (π), which is a common representation of the aggregate supply curve. The other options don't fit the typical model of aggregate supply equations.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F9ecdd586-d90f-4b01-9735-d33df7ee50d8%2Fc61eed8b-ec02-4195-99f8-be99a674636b%2Flgclj8ek_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
