Five questions from the pack.

B. Without a legal mandate the pattern is de facto. De jure requires a law. Hypersegregation requires high scores on several dimensions, and reproduction concerns passing class across generations.

Q2A Lorenz curve that lies close to the line of equality indicates a Gini coefficient that is:

A. Small area between curve and line yields a low Gini, near 0. A high Gini needs a large gap, 0.5 is arbitrary, and the coefficient cannot be negative.

Those are real questions from the pack, word for word.
