Consider two countries, A and B, whose respective industries produce goods A and B. Total world output of the good is given by Q

= 9A + 9B. There is a world demand given by P = 100 – Q. Suppose that the cost function for country A is given by cA (CA) = 89 A while the cost function in country B is given by CB(9B) = 398. The production of the good generates greenhouse gas emissions which cause global climate change. Total world emissions are 0.5 per unit of good, such that total world emissions are 0.5Q. If the two countries' industries compete in a Cournot fashion, what will the total world emissions be? Now suppose country A imposes a tax on A's production of A to curb emissions. Country B, however, is not taxed. A's cost function is now CA(CA) = 492A, while B's cost function is CB(9B) = 493. World demand is P = 99 – Q. The amount of greenhouse gas emissions per unit is still 0.5, such that total world emissions are given by 0.5Q.
What are total world emissions after country A enacts a carbon tax?

Answer: hello your question is poorly written attached below is the complete question

answer :

a) 31.5

b) 24.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Total world output of good given ( Q ) = qA + qB

world demand ( P ) = 100 - Q

cost function for country A = cA (qA) = 8qA

cost function of country B = cB(qB) = 3qB

total world emission = 0.5Q

emission per unit good = 0.5

<u>a) Determine total world emissions when both countries compete in a Cournot fashion</u>

Q = 63

therefore Total world emission = 0.5 ( Q )

                                                    = 0.5 ( 63 ) = 31.5

attached below is the detailed solution

<u>b) Determine the total world emissions after Country A enacts a carbon tax</u>

Q = 49

Therefore Total world emission after tax = 0.5 ( Q )

                                                                    = 0.5 ( 49 ) = 24.5

attached below is the detailed solution

Vinvika [58]
The equation that would best represent this biological scenario is,
                                    N = 1200x - 75cx
where N is the number of bacteria, x is the number of gallon and c is the amount of chemical solution in tablespoon. 

Calculating for the number of bacteria in situation 2. 
                         300(500)  = (1200)(500)  - (75)(500)(c)
The value of c from the equation is 12 tablespoons.
