Answer: A. the firm could produce 3 more units of output if it increased its use of capital by one unit (holding labor constant).

Explanation:

The Marginal Rate of Technical Substitution(MRTS) is calculated as follows:

= Marginal product of labor / Marginal product of capital

= 1 / 3

Marginal product of labor = 1

Marginal product of capital = 3

This means that if one unit of labor is used, it produces 1 unit of output.

If one unit of capital is used however, it produces 3 units of output.

If a firm therefore used one unit of capital and kept labor constant, it could produce 3 units out output.
