Answer:

C. the greater is the marginal productivity of labor relative to that of capital

Explanation:

An isoquant is a curve that shows all the combinations of inputs that yield the same level of output.

When adding one factor holding the other factor constant inevitably, leads to lower output levels, the isoquant must become steeper, as more capital is added instead of labour, and flatter when labour is added instead of capital. Returns to capital even decline.

Answer:

C

Explanation:

A graphical representation that shows contour lines which are drawn through the same point sets at which the output level is constant and the level of two or more inputs are changed.

Now, for a production isoquant with a steeper slope, we can see that there is a greater marginal productivity of Labour relative to that of capital.

Simply because labour has been more productive, more capital is needed for less labor and this causes the curve to be steeper.
