Answer:

D. The cost of producing the additional 200 soccer balls is greater than the amount that consumers are willing to pay for the additional soccer balls.

Explanation:

The optimal production is where : Marginal cost of production = Marginal benefit from production.

Marginal cost & marginal benefit refer to additional cost (incurred by producers) & additional benefit (by consumers), associated with the additional production level. Marginal Benefit also reflect the consumers' (buyers') willingness to pay for the additional product. So, it is analogous to demand curve.

  • Soccer balls optimal production level is where : its marginal cost = marginal benefit (price as per demand curve). It implies the production level of 600 soccer balls, as at that level 'marginal cost = marginal benefit = price'.
  • However, it is producing 800 soccer balls. Marginal cost is higher than marginal benefit (price paying willingness) at this production point, of these additional 200 soccer balls.

We discussed the invasions of the Roman world by various Germanic tribes in the fifth century and the Arab-Islamic conquests of
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

The invaders were able to govern the more advanced civilizations because they adopted most of the conquered civilizations' customs, rules of governance, and even languages and religion.

For example, in the case of the Germanic tribes that conquered the Western Roman Empire, the rulers adopted, one by one, the religion of the Roman Empire: Christianity, more specifically, the Roman Catholic variant.

They also began to use the language of the Empire: Latin, for ecclessiastical and political matters, and while political institutions did change a lot, some of the political institutions of the Empire did survive in the sucessor states that the Germanic rulers carved out of the Roman territory.
