The United States and Canada have the production possibilities curves shown above. It is determined that the United States has the comparative advantage in peanuts. Will both nations gain from trade if the terms of trade that are offered are 1 Peanut= 3 Corn? Why or why not? Show your work.


This is economics

Answers

Answer 1

It is false both nations will benefit if the terms of trade are  1 peanut = 3 corn.

What is the comparative advantage?

The comparative advantage refers to the ability of one company or nation to produce something at a lower cost. In this case, the U.S. can produce peanuts at a lower cost than Canada.

Will both nations benefit if they trade 1 peanut for 3 corn?

No, due to their differences in the amounts of units produced and their comparative advantage both nations will not benefit from this trade.

Canada: Canada can produce 60 corn for every 20 peanuts, this can be understood as a 1 peanut : 3 corn ratio, therefore, this country will benefit from the 1 peanut = 3 corn term.United States:  The United States produces 60 corn for every 60 peanuts or 1 peanut: 1 corn. Due to this, they will not benefit from the trade because this nation does not produce enough corn to meet the demand of 1 peanut = 3 corn.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Students = 450 (Everything within the sample/rectangle)

Choir = 110

Band = 240

Both = 60 (Where both circles overlap)

110+240+60 = 410 (Total students in Choir or Band or Both)

410 ÷ 450 = 0.91111111

Therefore the probability that a student chosen at random is in the choir, band or both out of the sample is 91%

Step-by-step explanation:

the rate of change is officially

(f(x2) - f(x1)) / (x2 - x1)

but for a line function (as we have here) this is totally easy : it is the slope of the line.

and that means it is the factor of x.

in our case this is -3/2.

because the slope of a line is the ratio "y coordinate change / x coordinate change". and that is exactly corresponding to the general rate of change definition above.

Answer: (f(x2) - f(x1)) / (x2 - x1)

because the slope of a line is the ratio "y coordinate change / x coordinate change".

The first equation in the following system gives a company's income, in dollars, for selling x baseball caps. The second equation gives the cost of making x baseball caps. Y = 8x y = -0. 01 x2 4x 3,200 The solution of the system is (400, 3,200). How would you interpret this solution?.

Answers

The solution of the equation can be determined by substituting the points in the equation and solving it.

The solution of the given equation would be interpreted by solving the equation for the value of x and y.

The solution of the equation is (400, 3200) and it can be determined by using substitution method.

Given that,

The first equation in the following system gives a company's income, in dollars, for selling x baseball caps.

The second equation gives the cost of making x baseball caps.

[tex]\rm y = 8x\\\\ y = -0.01 x^2 + 4x + 3200[/tex]

The solution of the system is (400, 3,200).

We have to determine,

How would you interpret this solution?

According to the question,

The first equation in the following system gives a company's income, in dollars, for selling x baseball caps.

The second equation gives the cost of making x baseball caps.

[tex]\rm y = 8x\\\\ y = -0.01 x^2 + 4x + 3200[/tex]

On solving both the equation,

Substitute y = 8x in the equation 2,

[tex]\rm y = -0.01 x^2 + 4x + 3200\\\\ 8x = -0.01 x^2 + 4x + 3200\\\\0.01x^2+8x-4x-3200=0\\\\0.01x (x+800) -4(x+800)=0\\\\(x+800)\ (0.01x-4)\\\\When \ \ x +800=0, \ x = -800\\\\And\ \ 0.01x-4 = 0, \ \ x = \dfrac{4}{0.01} \ \ x =400[/tex]

The value of x is not -800 because the cost can not be negative.

Then the value of x is 400.

Substitute the value of x in equation 1,

[tex]\rm y = 8x\\\\y = 8(400)\\\\y = 3200[/tex]

Hence, The solution of the equation is (400, 3200).

Angle DBC and angle BDA form a pair of corresponding angles, not a pair of alternate interior angles, which are congruent.

Answers

The statement that best describes a flaw in the students' proof is;

Option D; Angle DBC and angle BDA form a pair of corresponding angles, not a pair of alternate interior angles, which are congruent.

From the given image, we can see that;

AB ≅ DC

Let us analyze each given option;

A) ∠DBC and ∠BDA are in the same triangle ΔBDC. Now, they can't be a pair of vertical angles because vertical angles are a pair of opposite angles formed when two lines intersect but this is not the case here.

They are also not alternate interior angles because alternate angles are formed when a transverse line intersects two coplanar lines and again that is not the case here.

B) In ΔABD and ΔBDC, we see that;

AB = DC. Also, by theorem of alternate interior angles, we can tell that;

∠ABD = ∠BDC

Similarly, ∠BDA = ∠DBC from alternate interior angles.

Thus, there is one corresponding side and two non-included angles which means the triangles are congruent by AAS Congruency postulate.

C) As seen in B above, this statement is correct because the triangles are congruent by AAS postulate.

D) Corresponding angles lie on the same side of the transversal.  In this case, ∠BDA and ∠DBC lie on opposite sides and are even congruent by alternate interior angles.

If 5 20 times 2 Superscript 2 minus 3 x Baseline = 10 times 2 Superscript negative 2 x Baseline 5, what is the value of x? â€"3 â€"2 2 3.

Answers

The value of x is 3.

Given that,

If  [tex]5 + 20 \times 2^{2-3x}[/tex],

And Baseline = [tex]10 \times 2^{-2x}+5[/tex]

We have to find,

The value of x?

According to the question,

To determine the value of x in the equation following all the steps given below.

Equation; [tex]\rm 5 + 20 \times 2^{2-3x} = 10 \times 2^{-2x}+5[/tex]

Step1; Subtract 5 from both sides,

                   [tex]\rm5- 5 + 20 \times 2^{2-3x} = 10 \times 2^{-2x}+5-5\\\\\rm 20 \times 2^{2-3x} = 10 \times 2^{-2x}[/tex]

Step2; Divided by 10 on both sides,

                    [tex]\rm 20 \times 2^{2-3x} = 10 \times 2^{-2x}\\\\\dfrac{ 20 \times 2^{2-3x} }{10}= \dfrac{10 \times 2^{-2x}}{10}\\\\\rm 2 \times 2^{2-3x} = 2^{-2x}[/tex]

Step3; Rewrite the term into their power form and add the powers,

                   [tex]\rm 2 \times 2^{2-3x} = 2^{-2x}\\\\2^1 \times 2^{2-3x} = 2^{-2x}\\\\2^{2-3x+1} = 2^{-2x}\\\\[/tex]

Step4; The base is the same on both sides, we equate exponents,        

                    [tex]\rm 2-3x+1 = -2x\\\\-3x+2x = -1-2\\\\-x = -3\\\\x=3[/tex]

Hence, The required value of x is 3.

The quadratic function f(x)= x^2-14x+53 is equal to zero when x=a+ or - bi
What is the value of a?
What is the value of b?

Answers

Answer:

A= 3x B= 6/8

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of a is 7, and the value of b is 2√(2) for the given quadratic function f(x) = x² - 14x + 53.

What is a quadratic function?

The quadratic function is defined as a function containing the highest power of a variable is two.

The quadratic function f(x) = x² - 14x + 53 is equal to zero when x = a + bi or x = a - bi. This means that the roots of the quadratic equation are a + bi and a - bi.

The roots of a quadratic equation can be found using the quadratic formula:

x = (-b +/- √(b² - 4ac)) / (2a)

In this case, a = 1, b = -14, and c = 53. Substituting these values into the quadratic formula, we get:

x = (-(-14) +/- √((-14)² - 4153)) / (2*1)

x = (14 +/- √(196 - 212)) / 2

x = (14 +/- √(-16)) / 2

Since the square root of a negative number is an imaginary number, the roots of the quadratic equation are a + bi and a - bi, where a = 14/2 = 7 and b = √(-16)/2 = 2√(2).

Therefore, the value of a is 7, and the value of b is 2√(2).
