[判断题]The marginal product of a factor is just the derivative of the production function with respect to the amount of this factor, holding the amounts of other factor inputs constant.

选项:[错, 对]
[判断题]The weak axiom of profit maximizing behavior states that in a modern mixed economy, firms have only a weak incentive to maximize profits.

选项:[对, 错]
[判断题]A fixed factor is a factor of production that is used in fixed proportion to the level of output.

选项:[错, 对]
[单选题]A competitive firm produces output using three fixed factors and one variable factor. The firm's short run production function is , where x is the amount of variable factor used. The price of output is $3 per unit and the price of the variable factor is $9 per unit. In the short run, how many units of x should the firm use? 

选项:[80, 40, 20, 19]
[单选题]A profit-maximizing competitive firm uses just one input, x. Its production function is q = 8x1/2. The price of output is 16 and the factor price is 8. The amount of the factor that the firm demands is: 

选项:[10
, 48, 64, 22.63]
[判断题]Just as in the theory of utility maximizing consumers, the theory of profit maximizing firms allows the possibility of Giffen factors. These are factors for which a fall in price leads to a fall in demand.选项:[对, 错]
