Rational decision simply means a decision based on logic. It would be logical to say that people would always prefer more benefits than the cost they will be expending. Rational decisions indeed<span> occur when the marginal benefits of an action equal or exceed the marginal costs. No person would make a decision that would incur a loss in his part. Therefore, in order to say that you were able to have a rational decision, you have to bear in mind the profit you can gain out of it. Example of this is the decision on additional worker. Suppose you are paying $20</span><span> per worker and they produce 5,000 units. If you are to add additional worker, you will incur an additional $20 but it will also increase the production output to 8,000 units. Therefore, it would be a rational decision to employ another worker since the benefits would exceed the cost.</span>

What belief helped support the development of absolutism
alina1380 [7]

Answer: The divine right of kings.

Explanation:

Absolutism is the political position that describes the king as having the absolute power of a region or country, and there are no divisions of power superior to the king; that is to say <em>"the will of the king is absolute"</em>.

In these systems, the king has the power to make laws, exercise legal judgments, appoint members of his cabinet, or eliminate and create branches of government.

Currently, some examples of absolute monarchies are Saudi Arabia and Vatican City.
