As seen in the chart B has the comparative advantage in coal because 1/3 > 1/5 It means they are better at producing coal than the U.S.Have in mind examples like:
U.S.
1 barrel of oil = 4 hrs
1 ton of coal = 5 hrs

B
1 barrel of oil = 7 hrs
1 ton of coal = 3 hrs
After seeing this we can say that the country which has more availability has a comparative advantage over other countries.
Hope this helps

Country B has the comparative advantage in coal because in 1 hour they can produce 1/3 ton of coal which is more than the US who produces 1/5 ton of coal in the same amount of time. I think that the country which has more availability will end up having the comparative advantage over the other countries. International trade is based on the comparative advantage and most developing Arabic countries have the availability of oil have the comparative advantage.

List one method for accepting a job offer and one method for rejecting a job offer.

Sophie [7]

For both accepting and rejecting, thank the employer for the wonderful opportunity that was given. When accepting state that you are happy with the employment terms, and the salary that was given. When rejecting tell the employer thank you, but simply state how there may have been better opportunities, or how the job was not the right fit for you. Both should be done either by email or phone.

A reduction in the number of sellers will shift the supply curve to the right. Please select the best answer from the choices pr

kari74 [83]

That statement would be false

Reducing the number of sellers means that the quantity of the products that available in the market is also reduced

This will cause the curve to move to the left ( it goes right if the quantity of the products is increased)

Cost of Producing Guitars Carlota Music Company estimates that the marginal cost of manufacturing its Professional Series guitar

diamong [38]

Answer:

The total monthly cost C(x) incurred by Carlota in manufacturing x guitars/month is <u>C(x) = 0.004x^2 + 90x + 8,500</u>.

Explanation:

Given,

C '(x) = 0.008x + 90 ................................... (1)

To obtain the the total monthly cost C(x) incurred by Carlota in manufacturing x guitars/month, we obtain the integral of equation (1) as follows:

$C(x)=\int\limits {C'(x)} \, dx = \int\limits {[0.008x + 90]} \, dx$

C(x) = (0.008 / 2) x^2 + 90x + F

C(x) = 0.004x^2 + 90x + F .......................... (2)

Where F is the constant.

Since total cost is the addition of the total cost and total variable cost, the F in equation (2) represents the total fixed cost per month.

Since the fixed costs incurred by Carlota are $8500/month, this implies that F = 8,500.

Substituting F = 8,500 into equation (2), we have:

C(x) = 0.004x^2 + 90x + 8,500 <-------------- Total cost per month

Therefore, the total monthly cost C(x) incurred by Carlota in manufacturing x guitars/month is <u>C(x) = 0.004x^2 + 90x + 8,500</u>.
