Question

With its current levels of input use, a firm's MRTS is 3 (when capital is on the vertical axis and labor is on the horizontal axis). This implies: Group of answer choices if it used one more unit of both capital and labor, the firm could produce 3 more units of output. the firm could produce 3 more units of output if it increased its use of labor by one unit (holding capital constant). if the firm reduced its capital stock by one unit, it would have to hire 3 more workers to maintain its current level of output. the firm could produce 3 more units of output if it increased its use of capital by one unit (holding labor constant). the marginal product of labor is 3 times the marginal product of capital.

Answer 1

if the firm reduced its capital stock by one unit, it would have to hire 3 more workers to maintain its current level of output

Step-by-step explanation:

In the case when the MRTS is 3 so this implies that the value mentioned is one by 3 so this represents the capital amount that are required to subsitute for one unit of labor to remian on the similar isoquant

Therefore as per the given situation, the above represent the answer

Hence, the same is to be considered
