You must pick one of two​ wagers, for an outcome based on flipping a fair coin. 1. You win ​$440 if it comes up heads and lose ​
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

See Below

Explanation:

Expected value is the sum of the products of the probability and payoff of each.

<u>Wager 1:</u>

probability of heads and tails, both is 0.5

Win = 440

Loose = 110

So,

Expected Value = 440(0.5) + (-110)(0.5) = 220 - 55 = $165

<u>Wager 2:</u>

Similar to wager 1

Win = 770

Loose = 220

So,

Expected value = 770(0.5) + (-220)(0.5) = 385 - 110 = $275

2nd wager is better, in this sense.

Diminishing marginal product suggests that the marginal A. cost of an extra worker is unchanged. B. cost of an extra worker is l
MArishka [77]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": product of an extra worker is less than the previous worker's marginal product.

Explanation:

The Law of Diminishing Marginal Productivity indicates that increasing one variable while holding others the same can initially increase output but eventually adding more of that variable results in lower return rates. This law helps explain that it is not always the best way to increase income by increasing production.

<em>Initially, companies recruiting additional workers would boost production until too few machines or not enough space is sufficient to accommodate everyone. Then, the production rate will decrease.</em>

People who are unemployed because wages are, for some reason, set above the level that brings labor supply and demand into equil
Alik [6]

Answer: structurally unemployed

Explanation: The structurally unemployed are people who are unemployed because wages are, for some reason, set above the level that brings labor supply and demand into equilibrium. This translates to a mismatch between the jobs available and the skill levels of unemployed workers i.e., the skills unemployed workers have do not match the skills needed or required by employers which often are higher paying. Structural unemployment is caused by forces such as technological advancements, trade agreements etc. Typically it occurs when an underlying shift in the economy makes it difficult for some group of workers to obtain jobs.
