Why is the supply curve a vertical line
AlladinOne [14]
In some cases, supply curves are vertical, which means that for any price from 0 up to infinity, the quantity will stay the same.

This is very true for supply of an authentic painting in auctions, where there may only be 1 single painting, and people state the highest price they are willing to pay for the painting. Regardless of the price, there will only be 1 authentic painting for that price.

Hope this helps! :)

Obviously if the model wants to upgrade the kitchen, it should be done by either the landlord or a subcontractor. As he creates
RSB [31]

Answer:

a. x3+x4<=1

Explanation:

We need a multiple choice constraint. Constraint x3+x4 <= 1 states that only one of the 2 options of landlord or contractor working on kitchen tiles can be used. (Assuming x3, x4 are binary variables)

Hence if x3 = 1, x4 is 0, and if x4=1, x3 becomes 0. Please note, there is no constraint in question specifying that kitchen tile has to be done. Hence, both x3 and x4 can be 0 depending on cost optimization, and x3+x4<=1 will still hold correct.
