I need help to see if I am doing this correctly, and I'm not sure how to plot and answer the last question. Thank you.
The marginal cost (MC) curve intersects the? Select one: O a. ATC and AFC curves at their minimum point O b. ATC, AVC, and AFC curves at their minimum points O c. AVC and AFC curves at their minimum points. O d. ATC and AVC curves at their minimum points
Uncertain which options match each blank: a. Decreases, and therefore the curve shifts down b. Is unaffected, and therefore the curve does not shift c. Increases, and therefore the curve shifts up
The slope of an isocost line is equal to the Select one: O a. O b. and is negative of the ratio of input prices; constant decreases as we move down the line; the ratio of the marginal products O c. is constant; the ratio of the marginal products O d. increases as we move down the line; the ratio of input prices
An example of an opportunity cost not measured in the accounting costs of a business firm is O labor services provided by the firm's owner without reimbursement. payment for the cost of raw materials. O clectric utility expense. O wages paid to labor.

Constrained Optimization: Cobb-Douglas Production Function:1. Based from the factor shares of the two inputs, what will happen to the number of output if it the firm decides to triple both the amount of labor and capital?2. State the optimization problem of the firm.3. Solve for the formulas of the Marginal Product of Labor (MPL), and Marginal product ofCapital (MPK)4. Using your knowledge of the tangency condition in Producer’s theory, find the combinationof K and L that the firm should use to produce the maximum possible output. Do not solvethe problem using the Lagrangian method.Note: The tangency conditions just states that the slope of the production function must beequal to the slope of the isocost function.5. What is the maximum possible output that the firm could earn given the constraint it faces?
Please answer fast please arjent help a and b
According to a firm’s technology of production, you can take away 3 units of labor if you add 5 units of capital without changing production. The price of labor is $8 and the price of capital is $6. Assuming the firm’s MRTS is diminishing, this firm a. is minimizing cost at its current output level. b. should use more capital and less labor to lower the cost of producing its current output. c. should use less capital and more labor to lower the cost of producing its current output. d. should use less capital and less labor to lower the cost of producing its current output. e. None of above.
34. An iso-quant gives: S Combinations of output that can be produced using different levels of inputs 0. Combinations of inputs that can produce a constant level of output C. Combination of out puts that can be produced with a given level of upuis. d. None of the above is correct
