77julia77 [94]

Answer:

1 hour working on problems, 3 hours reading

Explanation:

the question is not complete:

Bob is a hard-working college freshman. One Tuesday, he decides to work nonstop until he has answered 200 practice problems for his chemistry course. He starts work at 8:00 AM and uses a table to keep track of his progress throughout the day. He notices that as he gets tired, it takes him longer to solve each problem.

Time                   Total Problems Answered       Marginal gain

8:00 AM                         0    

9:00 AM                        80                                        80

10:00 AM                     140                                        60

11:00 AM                      180                                        40

Noon                          200                                        20

Since Bob's is able to answer more than 70 questions per hours only during one hour (from 8 to 9 AM), he can benefit more from reading the next 3 hours. Reading would be equivalent to answering 210 questions, while Bob was only able to answer 120 more questions in the following 3 hours.

suter [353]

Answer: B. No. Imposing a price control below the equilibrium price in a market causes the quantity of the good available to consumers to fall because sellers will supply a smaller​ quantity, thereby causing some consumers to go without food that they would have been able to buy in the absence of the price control.

Explanation:

If price controls are introduced below the equilibrium price in the market, farmers or sellers will supply less to the market because they will not be incentivized to produce more seeing as they are not making what they should be making.

This, coupled with increased demand on account of food being cheaper, will lead to shortages which would mean that those that could have been able to afford the food at the equilibrium price would not be able to access food leading to even worse food shortages.
