Answer: It will take Machine A 6hours

Explanation:

Let Machine A's output = x

Let Machine B's output = y

Therefore, x + y = 1/3..... Eqn1

Then

2x + y = 1/2..... Eqn2

Making y the subject of the formula in eqn 1

y = 1/3 - x

Substitute the value of y into eqn 2

2x + (1/3 - x) = 1/2

2x + 1\3 - x = 1/2

X = 1/2 - 1/3

X= 1/6

Since x represents machine A, therefore it takes Machine A 6hours to produce 1 widget

Explanation:

Investments refer to all goods that are purchased to produce other goods in the future. Final goods to be used or to replace others do not fall into this category.

2) The output of a company is computed within the GDP. Even if the output is not sold after production but it is recorded as part of an organization's inventory, it will be considered in the calculation of the GDP of the year when the production of the good took place.
