In a free-market economy, a product that entails a negative externality (additional social cost) will be underproduced. A free-market economy is when the government has little or no restrictions and regulations on buyers and sellers in the market. They are essentially 'free' of all control and can base their inputs and outputs off of supply and demand. If there is a negative externality, then there too few items being produced in the economy.

How is the advancement of technology blurring the lines between humans and non- humans?

MArishka [77]

Answer:

As robotics quickly advance, scientists say the lines between robots and humans is beginning to blur.

That means one day with robotic prosthetics that work seamlessly with a human's muscles, with tiny robots that swim in our blood streams and fix medical problems and nano-scale robots implanted in our brains, we will become robotic humans.

As scary and sci-fi as that may sound, researchers say robotics will cure diseases, make amputees feel whole again and greatly extend our lives

A car rental agency rents 220 cars per day at a rate of 28 dollars per day. For each 1 dollar increase in the daily rate, 6 fewe

9966 [12]

The cars should be rented at $34 per day for a maximum income of $6268 per day.

If the daily rental is increased by $x

Rental: R(x)=(28+x)dollars per car-day

Number of cars rented:

N(x) = (220−6x) and Income: I(x) = (28+x) (220−6x) = 6,610 + 52x−5 $x^{2}$ dollars/day.

The maximum will be achieved when the derivative of I (x) is zero.

$\frac{dI(x)}{dx}$ = 52−10x = 0

⇒ x = 5.2

For an even dollar rental amount, and increase of $5/day or $6/day will generate the same income.

$28+$5 = $33/day

$28+$6 = $34/day

would both be valid answers.

However, $34/day involves renting fewer cars and thus reduced expenses.

Using basic substitution and arithmetic

I(4) = $6,268

<h3>What is Maximum revenue ?</h3>

Maximum revenue is defined as the total maximum amount of revenue of product or service can yield at maximum demand and price.

To calculate maximum revenue, determine the revenue function and then find its maximum value. Write a formula where p equals price and q equals demand, in the number of units.
