Answer:

The answer is B.

Explanation:

Marginal Productivity can be described as when every variable in the equation is held constant, it is the amount of productivity gained for every extra hour of labor that is put in.

And according to the information about Joey and his productivity cutting the lawns, we are provided the equation q = 0.2*L which means that for every extra hour Joey works cutting the lawns, Joey's marginal productivity is going to decrease by 0.2 or 20% so the answer is B.

I hope this answer helps.

Answer:

B) Joey's marginal productivity diminishes by 0.2 for each additional hour worked.

Explanation:

Joey's production function is Q = 0.2 x L

where:

  • Q = acres mowed per day
  • L = number of hours

Joey's productivity is constant, so he doesn't show any diminishing marginal productivity. E.g.

  • he works 5 hours, he mows 1 acre
  • he works 10 hours, he mows 2 acres
  • he works 15 hours, he mows 3 acres

Which of these is a sign that you're dealing with someone engaged in unfair lending
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

O All of the above

Explanation:

Honest and legitimate lenders require a borrower to be their client for a set period before they can advance credit to them. By the time the customer requests a loan, the lender will have some financial data to help them decide on the credit request.

Differentiating between a genuine and unfair lender is not that difficult. Unfair lenders are not interested in the borrower's ability to repay. They push a customer to sigh-up fast and for a high loan amount. The unfair lender aims at profiting from the collateral they receive as a guarantee for the loan. Genuine lenders are concerned about the risk involved in lending to a customer. They need some assurance that the client can repay.

HH is a 68 yo M who has been admitted to the medical ward with community-acquired pneumonia for the past 3 days. His PMH is sign
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer: weakened host immune system and other factors like his anti-hypertensive medications predisposed Mr HH to community acquired pneumonia.

Explanation:

Having a past medical history of

Chronic Obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), Hypertension, Hyperlipidemia and diabetes, Me HH has a higher risk of developing community acquired pneumonia through the following ways...

Having a past medical history of Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ascertains that he might have the bacteria Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, Chlamydia pneumoniae, Mycoplasma pneumoniae, and Legionella pneumophila which are the main causative organism of pneumonia and therefore will vkme down with community acquired pneumonia once the immune system is compromised.

Hypertension predisposes Mr HH to community acquired pneumonia through the use of certain anti-hypertensive medications like calcium channel blockers which tends to decrease phagocyte function and host defence.

Digoxin a cardiac glycoside decreases the clearance of pneumococci from lower respiratory tree.

Delayed emptying of the stomach with comes with diabetes can lead to aspiration this further resulting In pneumonia (community acquired pneumonia)

Diabetes and Hyperlipidemia impairs neutrophils and monocytes (macrophages) function thereby wearing the host immune response and further encouraging micro organisms that cause pneumonia to thrive.

In an industry with inverse demand curve pequals420minus2​Q, there are five ​firms, each of which has a constant marginal cost g
Damm [24]

Answer: 20 units.

Explanation:

Given that,

Inverse demand curve: P = 420 - 2Q

There are five firms and each of the firm has a constant marginal cost.

Marginal cost (MC) = 20

Profit maximizing output is produced by the firms is at a point where the marginal cost is equal to marginal revenue.

P = 420 - 2Q

Total revenue(TR) = PQ

                              = 420Q - 2Q^{2}

Differentiating TR with respect to 'Q'

Marginal revenue(MR) = 420 - 4Q

MR = MC

420 - 4Q = 20

Q = \frac{400}{4}

Q = 100

Therefore, output produced by the industry is 100 units.

Per-firm production = \frac{Total\ Production}{Number\ of\ firms}

                                 =  \frac{100}{5}

                                 = 20 units

Hence, each firm produces 20 units.
