1. In some coastal town, operating a fishing boat costs $2,000 per month. Suppose that if x boats operate in the bay, the total monthly revenue from the boats is $1,000(10x-x²). If there are no restrictions on entry, and if new boats come into the bay until there is zero profit to be made by a new entrant, then the number of boats that enter will be B₁. If the number of boats that operate in the bay is regulated to maximize total profits in the said town, the number of boats in the bay will be B₂. 1.1 B₁ is equal to

Each term (3 months) the current group of economics students completed a questionnaire as to how much they would spend on new purchases compared to how much they would save/pay off bills, if they suddenly and unexpectedly received a check for $1,000. The average MPC is shown in the table below. Month in which student poll was taken Average of students’ responses as MPC March 0.41 June 0.30 September 0.22 December 0.56 What do these MPC’s imply about the students’ thinking over the course of the year? (Enter response here.) What is likely happening in the economy during the same period of time?

Greenhouse gases trap heat and make the planet warmer. Human activities are responsible for almost all of the increase in greenhouse gases in the atmosphere over the last 150 years. In this part, you will draw two pie graphs. A pie graph is used to show how a certain quantity has been divided into several parts, as well as to show the comparisons among these parts. 1. The data table below shows the total U.S. greenhouse gas emissions by economic sector in 2013, in million metric tons of CO2. On the pie graph provided, complete the graph to show the percent of greenhouse gas emissions for each economic sector. Label each section of the pie graph with its economic sector. The percent for "Agriculture" has been drawn and labeled for you. Economic Sector Electricity Transportation Industry Commercial & Residential Agriculture Percent of Greenhouse Gas Emissions 31 27 21 12 9 80 75 70- 85 65 95 90 wlad Percent 0 100 Agri- culture 55 50 45 10 40 35 20 25 30
