Answer:

Her opportunity cost of reading 10 pages of sociology is 15 pages of Economics

Her opportunity cost of reading 18 pages of economics is 12 pages of sociology.

Step-by-step explanation:

For economics, Latasha reads 1 page in 2 mins (gotten by dividing the number of pages by the time taken to read it i.e 30 pages in 1 hr or 60 mins)

Her sociology is read 1 page in 3 mins (20 pages read in 60 mins)

To read 10 pages of sociology will take 30 mins. She will read 15 pages of Economics in the same time which is the opportunity cost.

In the same vein, It will take her 36 mins to read 18 pages of Economics at the same rate. This is the opportunity cost of reading 12 pages of Sociology (which she reads at 1 page in 3 mins).

Can you check my paper? If I got any wrong please tell me the correct answers.
djyliett [7]

There is a lot to go over here. Unfortunately it looks like you got a lot incorrect. I'll focus on two problems. Hopefully these examples below will help correct the other mistakes.

---------------------------------------------------------

Problem 7)

We have the starting value be 20 and the ending value be 11. Subtract the values: (end)-(start) = 11 - 20 = -9. The negative indicates we have a drop or decrease.

We'll focus on the positive version of this number, so 9. Divide this value over the starting amount 20 to get 9/20 = 0.45 = 45%

So going from 20 miles to 11 miles is a decrease of 45%

Answer to problem 7 is: 45%

---------------------------------------------------------

Problem 13)

An increase of 300% means we added 3 times the original amount onto the original amount.

We take 300% of 25 to get 3*25 = 75

Which is then added onto 25 to get 25+75 = 100

Answer to problem 13 is: 100
