achieve the objective of the person making the choice

a linear relationship correct answers when graphed is a straight line and can also have a positive
or negative relationship

the cost of a one unit increase in an activity is called the correct answers marginal cost

to make a rational choice, a person must correct answers compare the extra benefits of one or
more unit to the extra cost of one more unit

if the change in y=10 and the change in x =3 correct answers there is a positive relationship
between y and x

correct statement: correct answers when a line slopes upward moving to the right, the variable
measured on the x axis and the variable measured on the y axis are directly related

if change in y = -4 and change in x =2 correct answers there is a negative relationship between x
and y

consider a diagram in which the variable measured on the y axis remains constant while the
variable on the x axis increases. the graph of these two variables is a correct answers horizontal
line

as a curve approaches the maximum point, the slope will correct answers be positive, and then
negative after the maximum point

with y measured on the vertical axis and x measured on the horizontal axis, the slope of a straight
line is defined as correct answers (change in y)/(change in x)

a curve with a positive but decreasing slope represents a relationship where every time the
variable measured along the horizontal axis increased by one unit, the variable measured along
the vertical axis correct answers increases by a decreasing amount

, if the quantity variable on the y-axis increases by 10 when the quantity of the variable on the x-
axis decreases by 2, then the economic intuition of the slope of the curve is: correct answers 1
unit increase in x variable leads to 5 unit decrease in y variables

The figure below shows the relationship between the time a student spends studying and the

answers moving up along the same demand curve.

Refer to Scenario 1: Does the above equation satisfy the Law of Demand? correct answers Yes,
because as the price of taco increases by $1, quantity demanded of taco decreases by 3 units

Refer to Scenario 1: What is the relationship between burritos and tacos, from the point of view
of consumers? correct answers They are substitutes

Suppose a market were currently at equilibrium. A rightward shift of the supply curve would
cause a(n) correct answers decrease in price but an increase in quantity

What happens to the demand for a good if a complement's price increases? correct answers The
demand decreases and the demand curve shifts leftward.

Which of the following is a correct description of the supply curve
i. The supply curve is also the marginal cost curve. ii. The supply curve shows the dollars' worth
of other goods that we must sacrifice to produce another unit of a good. iii. The supply curve
shows the additional cost of producing another unit of a good correct answers i, ii, and iii

The expression "increase in quantity supplied" is illustrated graphically as a correct answers
movement up along the supply curve

If the demand and supply curve for computers are: Qd = 100 - 6P QS = 28 + 3P where P is the
price of computers. What is the Price and quantity of computers bought and sold at equilibrium?
correct answers Equilibrium Price $ 8; Equilibrium Quantity 52 units

Refer to Scenario 2. If P = $15, which of the following is true? correct answers There is a
shortage equal to 30
