solution:

Terms of trade (TOT) = 1 pound green beans for 3 pound corn.

So, when Jake sells 72 pounds of corn, he buys (72 / 3) = 24 pounds of green beans, which is sold by Jane.

After specialization, Jane produces 80 pounds of green beans and sells 24 pounds out of it.

So, Jane consumes (80 - 24) = 56 pounds of green beans herself.

Also, after specialization, Jane produces only green beans and no corn, so her consumption of corn is equal to the quantity of corn sold by Jake, i.e. 72 pounds.

So, Jane consumes 56 pounds of green beans and 72 pounds of corn.

Hey can you please help me posted picture of question
svet-max [94.6K]
If we observe the graph we can see that the curve crosses the x-axis at the following points: 1, 3, and 5
This means x = 1, x = 3 and x = 5 are the roots of the polynomial and x - 1, x - 3 and x - 5 are the factors of the polynomial.

We can express the polynomial as the product of its factors. So the polynomial will be (x-1)(x-3)(x-5)

The correct answer to this question is option A

<span>We want to check how many intersections line A and B have, that is, we want to check how many common solutions do these equations have:
</span>
i) 2x + 2y = 8

ii) x + y = 4
<span>
use equation ii) to write y in terms of x as : y=4-x, 

substitute y =4-x in equation i):

</span>2x + 2y = 8
2x + 2(4-x) = 8
<span>2x+8-2x=8
8=8

this is always true, which means the equations have infinitely many common solutions.


Answer: </span><span>There are infinitely many solutions.</span><span>
