production possibilities frontier?

The pairs that would be on Namibia's production possibilities frontier are (200 huts, 40,000 bowls) and (150 huts, 30,000 bowls) (option B).

<h3>What are the pairs on the possibilities frontier?</h3>

The Production possibilities frontiers is a curve that shows the various combination of two goods a company can produce when all its resources are fully utilised.

The PPC is concave to the origin. This means that as more quantities of a product is produced, the fewer resources it has available to produce another good.

Opportunity cost of the next best option forgone when one alternative is chosen over other alternatives. The pairs that would be on the frontier are the options that have an opportunity cost of 200 bowls when 1 hut is produced.

Opportunity cost of these pairs: (200 huts, 40,000 bowls) and (150 huts, 30,000 bowls)

  • Opportunity cost = 40,000 / 200 = 200
  • Opportunity cost = 30,000 / 150 = 200

Here is the complete question:
Assume for Namibia that the opportunity cost of each hut is 200 bowls. Which of these pairs of points could be on Namibia's production possibilities frontier?

a. (200 huts, 30,000 bowls) and (150 huts, 35,000 bowls)

b. (200 huts, 40,000 bowls) and (150 huts, 30,000 bowls)

c. (300 huts, 50,000 bowl) and (200 huts, 60,000 bowls)

d. (300 huts, 60,000 bowls) and (200 huts, 80,000 bowls)

Given the following coordinates complete the reflection transformation.​
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Under a reflection in the x- axis

a point (x, y ) → (x, - y ) , then

A (- 1, - 5 ) → A' (- 1, 5 )

B (2, - 3 ) → B' (2, 3 )

C (3, - 5 ) → C' (3, 5 )

Under a reflection in the y- axis

a point (x, y ) → (- x, y ) , then

A' (- 1, 5 ) → A'' (1, 5 )

B' (2, 3 ) → B'' (- 2, 3 )

C' (3, 5 ) → C'' ( - 3, 5 )

A solution initially contains 200 bacteria. 1. Assuming the number y increases at a rate proportional to the number present, wri
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

1.\frac{dy}{dt}=ky

2.543.6

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

y(0)=200

Let y be the number of bacteria at any time

\frac{dy}{dt}=Number of bacteria per unit time

\frac{dy}{dt}\proportional y

\frac{dy}{dt}=ky

Where k=Proportionality constant

2.\frac{dy}{y}=kdt,y'(0)=100

Integrating on both sides then, we get

lny=kt+C

We have y(0)=200

Substitute the values then , we get

ln 200=k(0)+C

C=ln 200

Substitute the value of C then we get

ln y=kt+ln 200

ln y-ln200=kt

ln\frac{y}{200}=kt

\frac{y}{200}=e^{kt}

y=200e^{kt}

Differentiate w.r.t

y'=200ke^{kt}

Substitute the given condition then, we get

100=200ke^{0}=200 \;because \;e^0=1

k=\frac{100}{200}=\frac{1}{2}

y=200e^{\frac{t}{2}}

Substitute t=2

Then, we get y=200e^{\frac{2}{2}}=200e

y=200(2.718)=543.6=543.6

e=2.718

Hence, the number of bacteria after 2 hours=543.6
