Answer:

Explanation:

A point on U=800 is (5, 16)

From BL:

400*F+100D =4000

400*5+100*16 =3600<4000

Therefore u = 800 affordable.

U= 1200

F = 1200/10D

If D = 20

F = 1200/200

=6

Now from BL:

400*6+100*20= 2400+2000=4400>4000

Not affordable.

Maximization:

L = 10DF+ʎ[100*D+400*F – 4000]

Differentiating wrt D and F:

dL/dD = 10F + ʎ*100

dL/dF = 10D +ʎ*400

equating to zero;                      

ʎ= -F/10

ʎ=-D/40

equating the two:

F/10=D/40

D = 4F

From BL:

400*F+100*D = 4000

400F+100*4F = 4000

800F = 4000

F = 5

D = 4*5=20

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is d.

Explanation:

The fallacy of composition consists in inferring that something particular is true, and that therefore it is also true about a whole, basing this only because it is true about one or more of its parts. For example, if we establish that a piece of metal can not break at high temperatures, therefore the machine of which it is part will not break at high temperatures.
