Suppose a small economy produces only two goods: apples and oranges. The production possibilities frontier (PPF) for this economy is given by the following equation: PPF: 5A + 3O = 60, where A represents the quantity of apples produced and O represents the quantity of oranges produced. Calculate the opportunity cost of producing one additional apple.
