Answer: 48

Explanation:

Firstly, we need to solve the marginal product which will be:

= dM/dx

= d(100x - x²)/dx

= 100-2x

At socially optimal level, it should be noted that:

Price × Marginal Product = Cost

90 × (100-2x) = 400

9000 - 1800x = 400

1800x = 9000 - 400

1800x = 8600

x = 8600/180

x = 47.77

x = 48

Therefore, the optimal number of workers will be 48.

Maksim231197 [3]
Compare and contrast how people have historically treated natural resources and how this might change, using your new understanding of scarcity, conservation, and private property.

Answer: In the past people treated natural resources as an infinite source of wealth and commodity. But now that we know that there are physical limits to nonrenewable resources we have taken a new approach to preserve this resources by taking measures like natural resource management. A great example of this would be a private property regime where the resources benefits and duties fall under the owner(s).

I hope it helps, Regards.

Laura is a gourmet chef who runs a small catering business in a competitive industry. Laura specializes in making wedding cakes.
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

The correct answer is the letter a. "Make more than 20 wedding cakes a month."

Explanation:

To maximize profit the marginal price of each cake must equal the marginal cost of each cake. The marginal cost is 300 and the marginal price is 5000/20 = 250. The marginal price of each cake (250) is less than the marginal cost of each cake (300), so Laura needs to make more than 20 cakes to increase her revenue and maximize her profit.
