Answer:
7 packets of sweet-pepper seeds and 9 packet of hot-pepper seeds.
Explanation:
Let x packets of sweet-pepper seeds for $2.16 each and y packets of hot-pepper seeds for $4.24 each are mixed to obtain 16-packet mixed pepper assortment for $3.33 per packet,
i.e. x + y = 16 ..........(1)
Also,
The price of sweet-pepper seeds + price of hot pepper seeds = price of the mixture
⇒ 2.16x + 4.24y = 3.33(x+y)
⇒ 2.16x + 4.24y = 3.33x+3.33y
⇒ 2.16x + 4.24y - 3.33x-3.33y = 0
⇒ −1.17x +0.91y = 0 ........(2)
Equation (2) + 1.17 × equation (1)
0.91y + 1.17y = 18.72
2.08y = 18.72
⇒ y = 9
From equation (1),
x + 9 = 16 ⇒ x = 16 - 9 ⇒ x = 7
Hence, there are 7 packets of sweet-pepper seeds and 9 packet of hot-pepper seeds.

Answer:
A monopsony is market where there is only one buyer, e.g. the government is the sole buyer for nuclear submarines in the US.
The demand curve of a monopsony is similar to the demand curve of any other type of market, i.e. it is downward sloping. Since there is only 1 buyer, the demand curve is also the supply curve. If the monopsonist wants to increase the quantity demanded at a lower price, the supplier (or suppliers) must be able to lower its costs and that generally results in lower labor costs.
Answer:
$150,000
Explanation:
Given that
Total revenue = $800,000
Explicit cost = $450,000
Implicit cost = $200,000
The computation of the accounting profit is as shown below :-
= Total revenue - Total cost
= $800,000 - $650,000
= $150,000
Total cost = Explicit cost -Implicit cost
= $450,000 + $200,000
= $650,000
Therefore for calculating the accounting profit we simply deduct the total cost from total revenue.
