Answer:
Assuming that you can only choose one answer, the most suitable one would be (A) Chris designs models to make traffic flow better, which enables Brian to get to his company’s warehouse faster.
Explanation:
This answer is correct because Chris is a traffic planner – thus he merely designs the traffic flow, he does not create it, thus making answer (D) incorrect. Though (B) is true, it doesn’t relate to Chris’ career, making it false as well. As for (C), the answer is not correct because Chris doesn’t design the maps of the state, he only designs the traffic flow.
Answer:
7.69%
Explanation:
The official unemployment rate includes people who do not have a job but are able to take a job and are currently seeking one.
People with part time jobs are considered employed.
Littleville has 1,000 residents, 600 are employed = 400 do not work but how many are considered unemployed:
400 - 240 (under age 16) - 10 (institutionalized) - 100 (are not looking for work, including students and homemakers) = 50 unemployed
Littleville's unemployment rate = number of unemployed / total labor force = 50 / (600 + 50) = 50 / 650 = 7.69%

Answer:
an increase in the working population
Explanation:
The Production possibilities frontier (PPF) is a curve that shows the various combination of two goods a company can produce when all its resources are fully utilised.
The PPC is concave to the origin. This means that as more quantities of a product is produced, the fewer resources it has available to produce another good. As a result, less of the other product would be produced. So, the opportunity cost of producing a good increase as more and more of that good is produced.
The PPF can shift either inward or outward.
An outward shift is associated with an increase in output while an inward shift is associated with a reduction in output.
Factors that cause the PPF to shift
1. changes in technology. technological progress leads to outward shift of the PPF. introduction of "fiber optic" technology would shift the PPF outward.
2. changes in available resources. a land reclamation program would increase the land available for production and this would increase output. While an explosion destroying a chemical plant would reduce output and lead to an inward shift of the PPF
3. changes in the labour force. A decrease in unemployment would increase output and shift the the PPF outward
Working population is the number of people between 15-59.
Answer:
1. Betty ; 2. Betty ; 3. Candies
Explanation:
Absolute Advantage is when one can produce more output of a good per unit of input , comparatively than other .
Comparative Advantage is when one can produce a good's output by comparatively lesser opportunity cost (other good sacrifised) than other .
AI : Chocolates = 10 , Candies = 5
Betty : Chocolates = 30 , Candies = 10
As it can be seen : Betty can produce both of more - chocolates (30) & candies(10) than AI (10,5) . So, it has Absolute Advantage in both - Candies & Chocolates.
However, AI is twice more productive in chocolates than toffees (10,5) ; but Betty is thrice more productive in chocolates than toffees (30,10). Comparatively, Betty is more productive in Chocolates. So opportunity cost of Chocolate in terms of sacrifised toffees is less for Betty 0.33 (10/30) than AI 0.5 (5/10).
So, trade between them would be : Betty selling its comparative advantage good Chocolate , AI selling its less comparative disadvantage good Candies.
