Question

Based on what you learned about the economics of organic produce, explain why buying organic food is so expensive and how that relates to direct variation.

Answer 1

Not exactly sure what direct variation is but organic produce is lower in demand so there's less supply of it but those who eat it need it so it's a necessity for them. They'd buy it no matter the price, for the most part.

Answer 2

Since there are greater costs to farming organically, organic produce is more expensive for consumers. The total cost to produce an organic crop relates directly to the price consumers pay for it.
