Hildegard, an intelligent and charming Holstein cow, grazes in a very large, mostly barren pasture with a few patches of lush gr

ass. When she finds a new grassy area, the amount of grass she gets from it is equal to the square root of the number of hours, h, that she spends grazing there. Finding a new patch of grass on which to graze takes her 1 hour. Since Hildegard does not have pockets, the currency in which her costs are measured is time. (a) What is the total cost to Hildegard of finding a new patch of grass and getting y units of grass from it? (b) Find an expression for her marginal and her average costs per patch of grass as a function of the amount of grass she gets from each patch. (c) How much time would she spend in each patch if she wanted to maximize her food intake? (Hint: Minimize the average cost per unit of grass eaten.)

Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

MC = $17

P = $25.5

Explanation:

We proceed as follows;

Firstly calculate MC when e = -2, where MR = MC

(P-MC) / P = 1 / IeI

Here P = $34 and e = -2

(34 - MC) / 34= 1/ I-2I

(34 - MC) / 34= 1 / 2

78-2MC = 34

2MC = 34

MC = 34/2

MC = 17

Now, as we have MC, we will calculate the new price when e = -3

(P-MC) / P = 1 / IeI

(P - 17) / P = 1 / I-3I

(P - 17) / P = 1 / 3

3P -51 = P

2P = 51

P = 51/2

P = 25.5
