an acceptable range of repair time of 50 minutes to 90 minutes. Two firms have submitted bids for the work. In test trials, one firm had a mean repair time of 74 minutes with a standard deviation of 4.0 minutes and the other firm had a mean repair time of 72 minutes with a standard deviation of 5.1 minutes. Which firm would you choose? Why?

Although one would repair at the most time of 76 minutes, the other is at most 77.1 minutes. I would pick the second one because they may take longer by 1.1 minutes at most, they also included seconds, which seems more like an honest bid time.

A profit-maximizing firm in a competitive market that is producing on a production curve where the marginal product of labor is
wlad13 [49]

Answer: A. a downward-sloping labor demand curve.

Explanation:

If the marginal product of labor is diminishing then that means that for every extra worker hired, less products are made than the last worker. As a result of this, companies will not want to pay high wages to workers because they would be bringing in less revenue when hired.

This will cause a downward-sloping labor demand curve that shows that as more workers are hired, the company would like to pay less wages because each new worker is only producing less than the last worker.
