Answer:

slope of the per-worker production function = 0.06

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

increase in capital per hour = $10,000

increase real GDP per hour = $600

solution

we get here slope of the per-worker production function that is express as here

slope of the per-worker production function = increase real GDP per hour รท increase in capital per hour ..............1

put here value

slope of the per-worker production function =
(600)/(10000)

slope of the per-worker production function = 0.06
