Answer:
- C
- E
- B
Step-by-step explanation:
The idea of a "production possibilities curve" is that there is a fixed relationship between possible production of one product and possible production of another. This relationship is presumed to exist because resources used to produce one product are then unavailable to produce the other product.
The graph of the curve generally has increased production in the direction away from the origin. So, points between the curve and the origin represent production choices that do not utilize all available resources of the kind that give rise to the curve. That is, points "inside" the curve represent under-utilization of resources.
1. Point C represents under-utilization.
__
2. Points "outside" the curve are unattainable, because the curve represents production using all available resources.
Point E is unattainable.
__
3. The assumptions behind the curve are that there must be a tradeoff between production of one item and production of another that uses the same resources. That is, increasing production of one item will necessarily decrease production of the other, representing a cost of the increased production of the first item. We call this cost an "opportunity cost", because it represents production opportunity lost with respect to the second item.
Choice B describes this situation.
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
The very idea of a "production possibilities curve" represents the sort of simplification that is often used in the study of economics. The real world is much messier, and these curves are always dynamic. They are affected by the regulatory environment, resource quality, technology, product quality, and availability of alternate or competing products, among other things. The very existence of such a curve precludes the possibility of "win-win" situations, which we know are generally available if they are sought after.
Answer:
y = 3/4x - 9/8
Then read explanation and see here with 2 coordinates would make
if 3/4 = -6 then 1 = -8
y = -6x + c
-6 / 3/4 + 9/8 / - 0.5 = -2.25
therefore c = -2.25
y = -6x - 2.25
y = -6x - 9/4 and again 9/4 can be found easily if round up fraction decimal to 225/100 and divide by 4
Step-by-step explanation:
C1) (0.5 , -0.75)
C2) ( 1. -3.75)
y = mx + c
-3.75 - - 0.75 / 1 - 0.5 = -3.75 + 0.75 / 0.5
= -3 / 0.5 = m
m = -6
y = -6x + c
then this works given just one coordinate to solve for 1 or 2 sets given points
y - y1 = mx+c
y - - 0.75 = 0.75 (x - x1)
y + 0.75 = 0.75 (x - 0.5)
y + 0.75 = 0.75x - 0.375
y = 0.75 - 0.75 = 0.75x( - 0.375 - 0.75)
y = 0.75x -1.125
y = 3/4x - 9/8 as common denominators of 1125/1000 is 9/8 as we divide by 125 into the fraction as we start at 250 and check its half just like when finding common denominators we 1/4 the lower number and see if we can find its half or its double etc with the other num er as first step for 3sf numbers.
24 is greater than 16. Or in mathematical terms 24 > 16
take your compass on a point on your line. then draw a circle. take the 2 points in which the circle hit the line and draw 2 circles larger than half the distance between he 2 points. take the point that they intersect and and connect it to the line and you point M and it is purpendicular. does that make sense?
You multiply all of the As by 7 and all of the Bs by 6 and then add all of the numbers
