s2008m [1.1K]

Answer: approximately nearer at the point where x=3 and y =4 So (3,4) is the point where most equal number are produced

Explanation:

Given is a graph showing the salads produced on x axis and sandwiches produced on y axis.

The straight line ABCDEF shows the points on the straight line and Y is below the line and X is above the line.

On the line there is no point where x=y exactly.

But approximately nearer at the point where x=3 and y =4 So (3,4) is the point where most equal number are produced

2) Y is below the line meaning that resources are not utilized effectively

3) X is not possible as it is beyond the firm's capacity level shown by line ABCDEF.
