Draw the initial guaranteed market price if the government establishes wants to ensure zero economic profit based on the original technology. Write the value below the graph in the space provided. When firms start competing for land and it results in an increase in land prices, show what happens to the cost curves of the grower who adopted the technology but did not expand her operation. Do this by carefully drawing any resulting shifts of the graphs or using any existing graph and indicating which of those graphs is the correct one (using the labels you attached).

The marginal, or additional, gain from Manuel's first hour of work, from 8:00 AM to 9:00 AM, is problems. The marginal gain from Manuel's third hour of work, from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM, is problems. Later, the teaching assistant in Manuel's physics course gives him some advice. "Based on past experience," the teaching assistant says, "working on 25 problems raises a student's exam score by about the same amount as reading the textbook for 1 hour." For simplicity, assume students always cover the same number of pages during each hour they spend reading. Given this information, in order to use his 4 hours of study time to get the best exam score possible, how many hours should he have spent working on problems, and how many should he have spent reading? O 1 hour working on problems, 3 hours reading O 2 hours working on problems, 2 hours reading O 3 hours…

He starts work at 8:00 AM and uses a table to keep track of his progress throughout the day. He notices that as he gets tired, it takes him longer to solve each problem.
