A firm's marginal product of labor is 5 and its marginal product of capital is 4. If the firm adds one unit of labor, but does not want its output quantity to change, the firm should:   use five fewer units of capital. add 1.25 units of capital. use 0.8 fewer units of capital. use 1.25 fewer units of capital.
