Step 1
First, let's plot the points on a graph. The x-axis represents the quantity of corn (in hundreds of bushels) and the y-axis represents the quantity of wheat (in hundreds of bushels). The points on the graph are as follows: A: (10, 50) B: (20, 40) C: (30, 30) D: Show more…

Here is the production possibilities table for war goods and civilian goods: Production Alternative Types of Production 250 450 650 850 Robots 130 117 109 Wheat Draw a production possibilities curve for robots and wheat using the data above: be efficient (A); underutilized (B) and unattainable (C). Label the points where the economy would be efficient (A), underutilized (B), and unattainable (C). What is the opportunity cost of moving from point B to point C? What is the opportunity cost of moving from point D to point E? What is the opportunity cost of moving from point D to point E?

Suppose the United States produces only two goods: alfalfa and cars. The following graph shows the United States's current production possibilities frontier, along with six output combinations represented by black points (plus symbols) labeled A to F. Complete the following table by indicating whether each point represents output combinations that are inefficient, efficient, or unattainable. Point Inefficient Efficient Unattainable A B C D E F

A farmer used four test plots to determine the relationship between wheat yield (in bushels per acre) and the amount of fertilizer applied (in hundreds of pounds per acre). The results are shown in the table. (a) Find the least squares regression line $y=a x+b$ for the data by solving the system for a and b. $\left\{\begin{array}{l}{4 b+7.0 a=174} \\ {7 b+13.5 a=322}\end{array}\right.$ (b) Use the regression feature of a graphing utility to con- firm the result in part (a). (c) Use a graphing utility to plot the data and graph the linear model from part (a) in the same viewing window. (d) Use the linear model from part (a) to predict the yield
