QUESTION 1 Hоw free trаde cоuld unlоck Africа’s potentiаl-Evidence 1 Free trade is not exactly popular. The US and China are placing tariffs on some of each other’s goods including steel, oil and shoes. Free trade agreements, such as NAFTA, are being reconsidered. Trade barriers are increasing and the idea of completing the WTO Doha round of global trade talks is becoming increasingly unlikely. But one region of the world is reversing the trend: Africa. In 2018, 44 African nations signed up to a continent-wide free trade agreement that will cut tariffs to zero on 90% of imports, bring in lower tariffs on ‘sensitive items’ and liberalise trade in services. Africa needs free trade for many reasons. Few African countries have the scale to attract sufficient investment or increase manufacturing. The whole of Africa has a gross domestic product (GDP) of about $2.5 trillion, roughly the same as the UK. Also 16 African countries are landlocked. Many African governments are unable to break the basic pattern of trade: ship out raw materials and bring in manufactured goods. Diversification and economic complexity are the foundations of development. Yet, with the exception of South Africa, Egypt and a few others, most African economies are stuck as suppliers of basic commodities. Most African countries are missing out on the classic benefits of trade: economies of scale, specialisation, access to cheaper inputs and, for consumers, more affordable products. As an example, Firestone has supplied the world with Liberian rubber since 1926. In all that time, not a single tyre has been produced in the west African country of 4.6m people. If Liberia were part of a genuine free trade area spanning the African continent of 1.2bn people, the mathematics of manufacturing might change. Equatorial Guinea overview –Evidence B Equatorial Guinea has been one of the fastest growing economies in Africa in the past decade. After the discovery of large oil reserves in the 1990s, Equatorial Guinea became the third largest producer of oil in Sub-Saharan Africa, after Nigeria and Angola. More recently, substantial gas reserves have also been discovered. In 2017 the oil sector accounted for 85% of Equatorial Guinea’s GDP and 94% of exports. However, the country’s economic situation has deteriorated following the recent fall in oil prices. The economy remains in severe recession, with a decline of 8% in its GDP in 2017 and a cumulative decline of over 25% since 2014. Africa: Foreign Domestic Investment (FDI) Flows to Africa Falls By 21% -Evidence C According to the World Investment Report by the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD), FDI flows from multinational companies to Africa fell by a significant 21% to $42bn in 2017. According to this report, the decline was concentrated in the larger commodity exporters. This was mainly due to weak oil prices and the recent fall in commodity prices. However, FDI inflows to diversified exporters were better. • Morocco had a large increase in FDI of 23% to $2.7bn, mainly into the automotive sector. • Zambia’s FDI increased by 64% to $1.1bn, supported by more investment in copper production. • Kenya had an increase of 71% to $672m, due to strong domestic demand and inflows into information and communication technology (ICT) sectors.

If (f(x) = -sec(pi x) +1), find the fоllоwing. (If the аnswer is а frаctiоn, write it as an improper fraction using the "/" symbol. For example, if the answer is (frac{2pi}{3}) write "2pi/3" and not "2/3pi". Be sure to reduce all fractions to lowest form.)
