question 20

Short Answer

Find the distance between the pair of points. Give an exact answer, and where appropriate, an approximation to three
decimal places.
- $\left( - \frac { 5 } { 8 } , 1 \right) \text { and } \left( - \frac { 5 } { 8 } , \frac { 1 } { 2 } \right)$
A) $\frac { 9 } { 4 }$
B) $\frac { 1 } { 2 }$
C) $\frac { 5 } { 2 }$
D) $\frac { 3 } { 2 }$

• A) \(\frac { 9 } { 4 }\)
• B) \(\frac { 1 } { 2 }\)
• C) \(\frac { 5 } { 2 }\)
• D) \(\frac { 3 } { 2 }\)

Analyze the impact of market structures on pricing and output decisions, including the differences between monopolies and competitive markets in terms of equilibrium price and quantity.

Understand the relationship between demand curves, marginal revenue, and marginal cost in the context of monopoly.

Interpret and calculate a monopolist's profit maximizing level of output and price using demand, cost, and marginal revenue information.

Identify the conditions under which a monopolist would increase, decrease, or maintain current output levels for profit maximization.
