Answer : 4. "14 cm"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 14 cm Explanation: Circular piece is 4 x 11 = 44 cm long, Then Circumference of circle is given by, 44 = pi x D, where D is the diameter D = 44 / pi Take pi = 22 / 7, then D = 44 / (22/7) = (44 x 7) / 22 D = 14 cm.

Answer : 4. "along a production possibilities curve, increases in the production of one good require larger and larger sacrifices of the other good"
Explanation :
Answer: D) along a production possibilities curve, increases in the production of one good require larger and larger sacrifices of the other good Explanation: Opportunity cost is the cost of what you are giving up to do what you are currently doing. If you can either go to work or go to the beach, and you choose to work, the opportunity cost of working is the value you would have gotten had you gone to the beach. The law of increasing opportunity costs states that as you increase production of one good, the opportunity cost to produce an additional good will increase.
