Solution

a. To graph the relationship between the amount of labor used to make lemonade and the amount of lemonade that can be produced each hour, you would plot the number of workers on the x-axis and the total product on the y-axis.

b. The average product is calculated by dividing the total product by the number of workers. The marginal product is calculated by subtracting the total product of the previous number of workers from the total product of the current number of workers.

Here's the completed table:

Labor (workers) Total Product Average Product Marginal Product 0 0 - - 1 (Estella) 9 9 9 2 18 9 9 3 24 8 6 4 28 7 4 5 25 5 -3

c. To graph the marginal product and average product curves, you would plot the number of workers on the x-axis and the marginal product or average product on the y-axis.

d. If Estella has one friend help her make lemonade instead of making lemonade by herself, she can produce 9 additional glasses of lemonade.

e. If Estella was making lemonade alongside three friends and decides to invite an additional friend to help, they can produce 4 additional glasses of lemonade.

f. If Estella has four friends help her, on average each of them can make 5 glasses of lemonade per hour.

SolutionStep 1:We know the following.The surfboard costs $249$249.Adam has $50$50.His job pays $6.50$6.50 per hour.We want to know how many hours Adam needs to work to buy the surfboard.Let x=𝑥= the time expressed in hours.Let y=𝑦= Adam earningsThe equation of this line is: y=6.50x+50𝑦=6.50𝑥+50Step 2: We can solve this problem by making a graph that shows the number of hours spent working on the horizontal axis and Adam’s earnings on the vertical axis.Adam has $50$50 at the beginning. This is the Answer 1 Question 5: (0,50)(0,50).He earns $6.50$6.50 per hour. This is the Answer 2 Question 5 of the line.We can graph this line using the slope-intercept method. We graph the y𝑦−intercept of (0,50)(0,50), and we know that for each unit in the horizontal direction, the line rises by Answer 3 Question 5 units in the vertical direction. Here is the line that describes this situation.
