Answer:
a) attached below
b) stable equilibria = x = 0.1 , x = 0.8
unstable equilibria = other value except 0.1 , 0.8
c) 0.5 , 0.6
Explanation:
Benefit of using the local roads = 1 + 8x - 9x^2
Benefit of using the free way = 3.6
a) Attached below is the required graph
<u>b) Determine The possible equilibrium traffic patterns from the graph </u>
stable equilibria : x = 0.1 , x = 0.8 ( this id because at these given value the benefits of using either routes is equal )
unstable equilibria : every other value of X except 0.1 and 0.8
<u>c) Determine the value of x that maximizes the total benefit to the population</u>
The value of X that maximizes the total benefit to the population = 0.5 and 0.6
attached below is the detailed solution
Answer:
At 1.783 or more, the conversion yield better gain than sales the corn
Explanation:
The ethanol conversion become attractive if the cost for doing the conversion are lower than the sale revenue for the product.
<u>total cost: raw materials + conversion cost</u>
corn price: $ 3.75
conversion cost: $ 1.60
Total cost: $ 5.35
<u>output: gallon of ethanol per bushel</u>
3 gallons of ethanol per bushel
total cost / output = 5.35/3 = 1.783 cost per gallon
Answer:
$500
Explanation:
The cost of the car is $5000
the interest is 10% per year
the interest paid in one year time will be
I= p x r x t
p = $5000; r =10% or 0.1 ;and t = 1
I = $5000 x 0.1 x 1
I= $500 x 1
Interest payable in one year is $500
