Answer:
b. scarce resources.
Explanation:
Scarcity is one of the basic economic problems. Scarce resocurces means that resources needed to satisfy human wants are available in limited quantities.
In this question, the portable X-ray machine is the scare resource.

Answer:
1. $50 and 40%
2. 177 units and $22,125
3. 473 units and 72.77%
Explanation:
Price = $125
Variable cost = $75
Fixed cost =$8,850
Contribution margin is the net of sales price and variable cost of the product. It is the cost available to recover the fixed cost and make profit afterward.
1. Contribution margin = Sales price - Variable cost = $125 - $75 = $50
Contribution margin ratio = Contribution margin / Sale price = $50 / $125 = 40%
Break-even is the level of sales at which business has no profit no loss situation.
2. Break-even point = Fixed cost / Contribution margin per unit = $8,850 / $50 = 177 units
Break-even in $ = 177 units x $125 = $22,125
Margin of safety is the level of sales at which the business is safe from making loss. Margin of safety measures the profit after the break-even point.
3. Margin of Safety = Total sales - Break-even point = 650 units - 177 units = 473 units
Margin of safety to sales = ( Margin of safety / Total sales ) = ( 473 units / 650 units ) x 100 = 72.77%
18a.
the y-intercept is the value of the function at x = 0.
so y-intercept is 5/8.
constant multiplier you can find by dividing a y-value by the previous y-value:
(y at x = 1) / (y at x = 0) is
(15 / 32) / (5 / 8)
but dividing by fraction is same as multiplying by reciprocal:
(15 / 32) · (8 / 5) ⇒ (15 · 8) / (32 · 5) ⇒ (3 · 1) / (4 · 1) = 3/4
(since 15 and 5 cancel to 3 and 1; 8 and 32 cancel to 1 and 4
the constant multiplier is 3/4 (you can confirm by repeat multiplying the y-values by 3/4 to get the next one)
18b.
y-intercept is 0.01
constant multplier:
(y at x = 1) / (y at x = 0) = 0.1 / 0.01 = 10
constant multiplier is 10
18c.
y = m/n(o/p)^x
y intercept is at x = 0:
y = m/n(o/p)^0
since anything to power of 0 is 1, we are left with
y = m/n
y-intercept is m/n.
The constant multiplier is o/p
i don't really have news papers or magazines around for that last bit, but if you could look for population data and such they can be exponential.
