Isaac Newton's theories of universal laws helped to spark mechanistic economic models among European thinkers such as Adam Smith. True False

Suppose that France and Switzerland both produce jeans and stained glass. France's opportunity cost of producing a pane of stained glass is 5 pairs of jeans while Switzerland's opportunity cost of producing a pane of stained glass is 10 pairs of jeans. By comparing the opportunity cost of producing stained glass in the two countries, you can tell that

has a comparative advantage in the production of stained glass and

has a comparative advantage in the production of jeans. Suppose that France and Switzerland consider trading stained glass and jeans with each other. France can gain from specialization and trade as long as it receives more than

of jeans for each pane of stained glass it exports to Switzerland. Similarly, Switzerland can gain from trade as long as it receives more than

of stained glass for each pair of jeans it exports to France. Based on your answer to the last question, which of the following terms of trade (that is, price of stained glass in terms of jeans) would allow both Switzerland and France to gain from trade? Check all that apply. 6 pairs of jeans per pane of stained glass 9 pairs of jeans per pane of stained glass 2 pairs of jeans per pane of stained glass 1 pair of jeans per pane of stained glass

Late submissions will not be graded. GreenBuild Supplies produces eco-friendly furniture and makes two products: Eco Chairs and Eco Benches. Production is limited by available labor in two areas: woodworking and painting. - Eco Chair: - Requires 3 hours of woodworking. - Requires 1 hour of painting. - Generates a profit of \( \$ 20 \) per chair. - Eco Bench: - Requires 2 hours of woodworking. - Requires 3 hours of painting. - Generates a profit of \( \$ 40 \) per bench. In addition, demand considerations require that the company produce at least twice as many Eco Chairs as Eco Benches in any production run. The company has 120 hours of woodworking labor and 90 hours of painting labor available each week. GreenBuild Supplies wants to determine how many chairs and benches to produce each week to maximize profit. Part A: a) Formulate a linear programming model to maximize profit. Clearly identify the decision variables and constraints. b) Find the optimal solution and optimal objective function value using the graphical solution approach. Clearly indicate the feasible region and the constraints. c) Determine the types of constraints (i.e., binding, nonbinding, redundant). d) How many hours of woodworking and painting labor will remain unused if the optimal numbers of chairs and benches are produced? Part B: a) Determine the sensitivity ranges for the unit profits of Eco Chairs and Eco Benches. b) Using the sensitivity ranges you found in part (a), determine the new optimal solution and objective function value if the profit of an Eco Chair increases from \( \$ 20 \) to \( \$ 40 \). c) Using the sensitivity ranges you found in part (a), determine the new optimal solution and objective function value if the profit of an Eco Bench decreases from \( \$ 40 \) to \( \$ 10 \). d) Determine the sensitivity ranges for the right-hand sides of the woodworking and painting constraints. e) Determine the shadow prices for the woodworking and painting constraints. Answer the following parts considering the sensitivity ranges and shadow prices you found in parts (d) and (e). Do not solve the model again. f) What would be the effect of increasing the amount of available woodworking labor to 130 hours on the optimal solution and objective function value? g) What would be the effect of increasing the amount of available woodworking labor to 150 hours on the optimal solution and objective function value? h) What would be the effect of decreasing the amount of available painting labor to 80 hours on the optimal solution and objective function value?

In 20202020, a team of researchers led by Laura A. Stockdale and Christin L. Porter sought to study "technopherence", or interruptions to parent-child interactions due to the parent looking at a phone. The study confirmed what earlier research showed--the infants had increased negative emotions similar to those experienced during original still face paradigm research that had prolonged effects on their behavior, even during the reunion phase. The researchers conclude that "The majority of American house-holds contain multiple cell phones (Pew Research Center, 20192019), and mobile phones are a normative part of developing infants' reality in the Western world today. The current study suggests that a modified version of the traditional SFP produces a robust still-face effect... Additionally, technoference may also blunt infants' emotional responses to parents' disengagement in ways that may be similar to infants with disengaged caregivers with depression. More research is warranted regarding the effects of mobile phone use by parents on these developmentally essential parent-infant interactions during the first year of life." This continued research on the impact of technology on parent-child interactions best fits with which APA theme?

The Influence of Life Scripts and Life Positions on Psychopathology and Positive Mental Health: A Structural Equation Modeling. He had to construct this scale because there was no available one at the time. In 2005, he and two other authors wrote another article that found modest correlations between Life Positions and Attachment Styles—validating the scale by establishing the relationship between life positions and a variable that was theoretically argued to have conceptual parallels or to be “similar” with it. In 2012, Isgor and two other authors translated the Life Position Scale into Turkish and established its reliability and validity.
