Answer
16. d. 6 televisions
From the figure we see that at point 'S', the economy is producing '6' televisions and '4' radios. At point 'T', the economy is producing '0' televisions and '6' radios. Thus moving from point 'S' to point 'T', the economy is sacrificing 6 televisions (6 - 0) to produce 2 more radios(6 - 4). Thus the opportunity cost of 2 more radios is '6' televisions.

17. c. Both point S and point V are efficient.
All the points that lie on the production possibility frontier are efficient production points. From the figure we see that both point S and point V lie on the production possibility frontier. Thus both the points are efficient points.
