Riva crafts and sells hard cider as a part-time job. She can bottle and sell four cases in a week. She is considering hiring her

Dovator [93]

Answer:

3 cases

Explanation:

Marginal product refers to change in the total output when an additional input is employed. For example, output is 5 units when 2 laborers are employed. When another unit of input i.e 3rd laborer is employed, the output rises to 9 units. In this case marginal product of the 3rd unit of labor would be 9 - 5 i.e 4 units.

In the given case, before Atul is hired, the production was 4 cases per week. After his being hired, it rose to 7 cases per week. Thus Atul's marginal product in the given case would be 7 - 4 i.e 3 cases.

For an analysis of the salaries of your company, you plot the salaries of all employees against the number of years they have w

Arisa [49]

Answer:

1. That values that you must plot are:

(1, 4.08))

(20, 5.08)

(40, 6.18)

2. Yes, the plot of those three points is straight enough.

Explanation:

A. What are the values you will plot?

The x-ccordinate of your plot is still the number of years the exmployees have worked for the company.

The y-coordinate of your plot is the the base-10 logarithm of the salary.

Therefore:

1) A part-time shipping clerk: 1 year, $12,000

⇒ $(1,log_{10}12,000)=(1,4.08)$

2) A manager: 20 years, $120,000

⇒ $(20,log_{10}120,000)=(20,5.08)$

3) The CEO: 40 years ago, $1,500,000

⇒ $(40,log_{10}1,500,000)=(40,6.18)$

Summarizing, the points to plot are:

(1, 4.08)

(20, 5.08)

(40, 6.18)

B. Will the plot of these three points be straight enough?

To find whether the plot is straight enoguh, you may either plot them, make a regression, or, since they are only three points, you can whether the change of rate of the points is constant.

Change of rate of the first two points, r:

r = rise/run = Δy / Δx = (5.08 - 4.08) / (20 - 1) =1.00/19 ≈ 0.05

Change of rate of the second and the third points, r:

r = rise/run = Δy / Δx = (6.18 - 5.08) / (20 - 1) = 0.05

Since both rate of changes are equal (or reasonably equal) the plot is straight enough.
