If the cost of a competing factor of production, such as a machine that also could do the job, rises. This would result in a shi

ft in the demand for this factor out to the right and would put pressure on the wage to rise. I don't understand why this is the case because I thought if machines replaced human labor then wouldn't wages be lower because there wouldn't be a need for human labor?

Keep in mind that we're framing it based on what the first sentence says, which is "If the cost of a competing factor of production, such as a machine that also could do the job, rises".

So if the cost of getting a machine part, various parts, or the entire machine cost rises, then demand for the machine will go down. This will make employers seek out substitutes. In this case, those substitutes would be human labor. As employers demand for labor goes up, the wages will rise assuming the supply of workers is held constant. If the supply of workers increased, then you could argue the wages could go down. So that's why I'm assuming the supply is held in check.

What integer represents w? 9 : 4 = 27 : w
joja [24]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because to get 9 to 27 you have to multiply 9 by 3, therefore you have to multiply 4 by 3 due to the fact what you do to one side you have to do to the other to make it all equal:

9 x 3 = 27

4 x 3 = 12

ratio- 9 : 4 = 27 : 12

have a nice night! Hope this helped

Please help me solve this step by step please :(

Answer:

B) 60.21 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a triangle = 1/2bh

You can‘t used mixed measurements (feet and inches), so you have to convert each length to inches

8’6”=102’

14’2”=170’

Now find the area

1/2 x 102 x 170 = 8670 in²

This is one of the answers, but the quetion asks how many quart feet you need.

So, convert it back to feet.

8670 x 0.06944444444 = 60.2083333

(You could also have converted the two lengths to feet. 8’6” = 8.5 ft.  14’2” = 14.16666666.  This way would probably have been faster.

1/2 x 8.5 x 14.166666 = 60.20833333)
