Answer 1. the difference between average total cost and average variable cost decreases.
Reason- The difference between average total cost and average variable cost is average fixed cost. AFC=TFC/Q, TFC is total fixed cost which is constant. When output rises, AFC falls.
Answer 2. Both a and b are correct.
Reason-MC=AVC and MC=ATC at their minimum. But AFC is Falling as output rises, so MC≠ AFC at it's minimum
Answer 3. $80
Reason- When Q=6, TC=$130 and TFC=$50
TVC=TC-TFC= $130-$50=$80
Answer 4. Horizontal
Reason- For a perfectly competitive firm, price equals marginal revenue. Since price is given and is horizontal, MR is also horizontal.

The following graph shows the short-run average total cost
curves and the long-run average total cost curve for a publishing
firm. The five marked quantities indicate points of tangency
between each short-run average total cost curve ( SRATC ) and the
long-run average total cost curve ( LRATC ); for example, Q1 marks
the point of tangency between SRATC1 and LRATC .
