Could you please provide answers to the following questions:
The economic concept of cost differs from the everyday notion of a monetary payment. In economics, the cost of doing something is what you have to give up to be able to do it. In this sense, you can face a cost even if you do not have to pay anyone anything. Economists refer to this as an opportunity cost. Suppose that a farmer has land that can produce 20 bushels of corn per acre or 10 bushels of wheat per acre. She currently is producing 100 bushels of corn and 100 bushels of wheat. 1.1. What is the opportunity cost to the farmer, measured in bushels of corn, of producing an additional 10 bushels of wheat? E Please enter a whole numb er, with no decimal point.

Your professor gives you the following table. It shows how many hot dogs nine different families purchased last year. The families had different levels of income. Because they lived in different towns, they also faced different prices for hot dogs and hot dog buns. Your professor claims that the table has enough information to plot three distinct demand curves for hot dogs.
