Homework #1 Solutions 3.1 a. Let X1 =the number of hours of process 1 used X2 =the number of hours of process 2 used The objective is to minimize the cost of producing the three products A‚ B and C. The constraints are on the demand of each product. Min 4X1 + X2 subject to 3X1 + X2 ≥ 10 (A’s demand) X1 + X2 ≥ 5 (B’s demand) X1 ≥ 3 (C’s demand) X1 ‚ X2 ≥ 0 (nonnegativity) b. From the graph we can see that the isocost line just leaves the feasible region where the demand for C and B intersect. The

Besanko & Braeutigam – Microeconomics‚ 3rd edition Solutions Manual Chapter 8 Cost Curves Solutions to Review Questions 1. The long-run total cost curve plots the minimized total cost for each level of output holding input prices fixed. In other words‚ for a given set of input prices‚ the long-run total cost curve represents the total cost associated with the solution to the long-run cost minimization problem for each level of output. When the price of one input increases‚ the isocost line

Mixtures and Solutions can often become confusing because solutions are mixtures‚ but not all mixtures are solutions. A mixture can either be homogeneous or heterogeneous. A homogeneous mixture is where the mixture’s components are distributed uniformly within the mixture. A heterogeneous mixture is where the components are not uniform. Mixtures can either be miscible or immiscible‚ the difference being whether or not the mixture forms a homogeneous mixture or not. In a solution a solute is soluble

BUFFER SOLUTION (ACID) An acidic buffer solution is simply one which has a pH less than 7. Acidic buffer solutions are commonly made from a weak acid and one of its salts - often a sodium salt. Objectives: 1. Measure the pH of the unknown solution first with indicators and then with pH paper. 2. compare the buffer solution with both a strong acid and a weak acid materials: 2 30 mL beakers 2 100mL volumetric flask 1 10mL pipet 2 aspirator 1 50mL graduated cylinder 1 10mL graduated
