Answer: The answer is b

Explanation:

Since 60minutes = 1 hour

2400 ÷ 60

= 40

The total output of cars increased by 40

The law of comparative advantage states that a country will specialise in producing commodities in which the country has greatest comparative advantage. Therefore a country will produce for export those commodities she can produce cheaply than other countries.

Answer:

Decrease

$200

$190

$180

Explanation:

The question isn't complete. Here is the full question:

A study finds that the noise from airplanes is harmful; hence, the government imposes a $20 tax on the sale of every airplane. This amount accurately accounts for the external cost of the noise pollution. Before the corrective tax, airplane tickets regularly sold for $190. After the tax is in place, the market price for airplane tickets rises to $200.

The quantity of airplane tickets sold will

The socially optimal price of airplane tickets is

The private market price is

A firm selling airplane tickets receives after it pays the tax

The noise from the airplanes constitute negative externality.

Tax levied on negative externality is known as pigouvian tax.

As a result of the tax, the price of tickets increases and this would reduce the quantity of tickets demanded for according to the law of demand. According to the law of demand, the higher the price, the lower the quantity demanded and the lower the price, the higher the quantity demanded.

The social optimal price is the price of the ticket after the tax accounting for the externality has been added to price. The social optimal price is $200.

The private market price is the price before the taxes: $190.

The amount received by firms = $200 - $20 = $180

Kyle plans to punch patrick. he calls patrick and tells him he will punch him tomorrow at 4:00 pm. at 2:00 pm the next day, kyle
stepan [7]
<span>Technically, Kyle lied to Patrick about the time at which he would punch him. However, there is no contract to prove that this was what was said on the phone (heresay). Additionally, it does not mention that there was any sort of agreement or consideration made between the two of them regarding this. And even if there was, there might be a legality issue due to the fact that punching is both assault and battery when committed on a person, so the contract may not even be enforceable. In terms of civil torts, Kyle didn't really commit anything that is pursuable in court, but did commit battery and assault. If Patrick fell or hit his head further and was injured/killed, he would be liable for an involuntary action, of which would be manslaughter if Patrick died. He would also be able to be sued for wrongful death by Patrick's family.</span>
