The flame would also be larger than a flame on a candle with hard wax. Also‚ the flame would produce more soot and there would probably be an odor from whatever was cooked in the oil before it was used in the candle. Results of the tests showed that the candle made from 100 percent paraffin wax had the lowest melting rate‚ lowest

T-shirts can be represented as q = L0.25 K0.75. When K = 1 and q = 2‚ what is the slope of the isoquant? If there is insufficient information to answer the question‚ describe what information is missing. In the short run‚ MPL = 0.25 * (q/L). The change in MP with respect to L equals d(MPL)/dL = -0.25 * q/L2. Thus‚ for all levels of labour hired‚ MPL falls as L increases. III. Consider the following short-run production function: q = 5L2 – (1/3)L3. At what level of L do diminishing marginal returns
