Answer:
1 hour working on problems, 3 hours reading
Explanation:
the question is not complete:
Bob is a hard-working college freshman. One Tuesday, he decides to work nonstop until he has answered 200 practice problems for his chemistry course. He starts work at 8:00 AM and uses a table to keep track of his progress throughout the day. He notices that as he gets tired, it takes him longer to solve each problem.
Time Total Problems Answered Marginal gain
8:00 AM 0
9:00 AM 80 80
10:00 AM 140 60
11:00 AM 180 40
Noon 200 20
Since Bob's is able to answer more than 70 questions per hours only during one hour (from 8 to 9 AM), he can benefit more from reading the next 3 hours. Reading would be equivalent to answering 210 questions, while Bob was only able to answer 120 more questions in the following 3 hours.
Answer:
is the addition to total output due to the addition of the last unit of an input, holding all other inputs constant.
Explanation:
The marginal product of an input is the change in total output as a result of the change in output by 1 unit
For example, the table below is the total product of labour
amount of labour output
1 10
2 20
3 40
the marginal product of the 3rd worker = (40 - 20) / (3 - 2) = 20
marginal product of the second worker = (20 - 10) / (2 -1 ) = 10
Average output = total output / labour
Answer:
C) producers to supply more and consumers to buy less.
Explanation:
The typical supply curve is upward-sloping (higher price leads to higer quantity supplied) and the typical demand curve is downward sloping (higher price lower quantity demanded).
Price is a measure of how much one good can be exchanged for other things. Production incurred cost (tend to rise as more resources become harder to obtain) so to supply more suppliers will demand higher price. Purchasing higher price good means consumers have less money (less of other goods can be bought) consumer will buy less good at higher price.
