Answer:

Country North has the comparative advantage in the production of tractor

Step-by-step explanation:

The principle of comparative advantage states that a country should specialize in the production of goods in which it have comparative cost advantage over other nations. i.e A country should focus on the production of the goods in which it has   a lower opportunity cost in producing  than someone else.  

The question given shows that Country North has a lower opportunity cost (which is 21 watches) if it produces 3 tractors compared to country south which has an opportunity cost of  100 watches when it produces 5 tractors.

Hence, we can say that country North has a comparative advantage in the production of Tractors over country south because its opportunity cost when its produces tractors   is lower than that of the country south

A ladder is placed against the side of a house. The top of the ladder is 12 feet above the ground. The base of the ladder is 5 f
Colt1911 [192]
This is the Pythagorean theorem where the 2 legs of a triangle squared add up to equal the squared hypotenuse (a^2 + b^2 = c^2)

The equation would be
12^2 + 5^2 = x^2

144 + 25 = 169

The square root of 169 = 13

Answer - 13 ft

Imaginá que tenés 125 dados cúbicos del mismo tamaño ¿Cuantos dados de altura tiene el cubo de mayor tamaño que podés armar apil
kumpel [21]

Answer:

(i) Debemos apilar 5 dados para construir el cubo de mayor tamaño.

(ii) Se necesita 121 dados cuadrados para formar el cuadrado con la mayor cantidad de dados posibles, quedando 4 dados sobrantes.

Step-by-step explanation:

(i) Sabemos por la Geometría Euclídea del Espacio que un cubo es un sólido regular con 6 caras cuadradas y longitudes iguales. Cada dado tiene un volumen de 1 dado cúbico y 125 dados dan un volumen total de 125 dados cúbicos.

El volumen de un cubo está dado por la siguiente fórmula:

V = L^{3}

Donde:

L - Longitud de la arista, medida en dados.

V - Volumen del cubo, medido en dados cúbicos.

Ahora, necesitamos despejar la longitud de la arista para calcular la altura máxima posible:

L = \sqrt[3]{V}

Dado que V = 125\,dados^{3}, encontramos que la altura del cubo de mayor tamaño sería:

L =\sqrt[3]{125\,dados^{3}}

L = 5\,dados

Debemos apilar 5 dados para construir el cubo de mayor tamaño.

(ii) El área cuadrada formada por cubos está determinada por la siguiente fórmula:

A = L^{2}

Donde:

L - Longitud de arista, medida en dados.

A - Área, medida en dados cuadrados.

Puesto que la longitud de arista se basa en un conjunto discreto, esto es, el número de dados disponibles, debemos encontrar el valor máximo de L tal que no supere 125 y de un área entera. Es decir:

L \leq 125\,dados

Si cada cubo tiene un área de 1 dado cuadrado, entonces un cuadrado conformado por 125 dados tiene un área total de 125 dados cuadrados. Entonces:

L^{2}< 125\,dados^{2}

Esto nos lleva a decir que:

L < 11.180\,dados

Entonces, la longitud máxima del cuadrado con la mayor cantidad de cubos posible es de 11 dados. El número total requerido de cubos es el cuadrado de esa cifra, es decir:

n = (11\,dados)^{2}

n = 121\,dados

Se necesita 121 dados cuadrados para formar el cuadrado con la mayor cantidad de dados posibles, quedando 4 dados sobrantes.
