The answer to the question above is MITIGATION. Prevention, protection, response, recovery, and mitigation are considered to be the five <span>interdependent mission areas or the five elements of preparedness which aims for emergency preparedness. This is very crucial to the emergency management as this covers individuals and even organizations.</span>
Answer:
is not efficient because firms can have different costs of reducing pollution.
Explanation:
Economic efficiency is the way a business maximises the use of factors of production (land, labor, capital) to produce output at a reduced cost. Efficiency aims to improve output and reduce cost to the barest minimum.
In this instance to individual cost required to reduce sulfur dioxide emissions is not considered by the government.
Since reduction of sulfur dioxide is equal among firms, some smaller ones may incur cost that will financially impair them and put them out of business.
While bigger firms will easily bear the cost.
Answer:
A) R(x) = 120x - 0.5x^2
B) P(x) = - 0.75x^2 + 120x - 2500
C) 80
D) 2300
E) 80
Explanation:
Given the following :
Price of suit 'x' :
p = 120 - 0.5x
Cost of producing 'x' suits :
C(x)=2500 + 0.25 x^2
A) calculate total revenue 'R(x)'
Total Revenue = price × total quantity sold, If total quantity sold = 'x'
R(x) = (120 - 0.5x) * x
R(x) = 120x - 0.5x^2
B) Total profit, 'p(x)'
Profit = Total revenue - Cost of production
P(x) = R(x) - C(x)
P(x) = (120x - 0.5x^2) - (2500 + 0.25x^2)
P(x) = 120x - 0.5x^2 - 2500 - 0.25x^2
P(x) = - 0.5x^2 - 0.25x^2 + 120x - 2500
P(x) = - 0.75x^2 + 120x - 2500
C) To maximize profit
Find the marginal profit 'p' (x)'
First derivative of p(x)
d/dx (p(x)) = - 2(0.75)x + 120
P'(x) = - 1.5x + 120
-1.5x + 120 = 0
-1.5x = - 120
x = 120 / 1.5
x = 80
D) maximum profit
P(x) = - 0.75x^2 + 120x - 2500
P(80) = - 0.75(80)^2 + 120(80) - 2500
= -0.75(6400) + 9600 - 2500
= -4800 + 9600 - 2500
= 2300
E) price per suit in other to maximize profit
P = 120 - 0.5x
P = 120 - 0.5(80)
P = 120 - 40
P = $80
Companies may try to lower their labor costs by laying off higher paid workers.
Typically the higher paid workers will be professionals who have worked their way up over time and tend to be older, while younger workers fresh out of school and looking for their first jobs will be more willing to take lower salaries.
