Assume that you estimated a regression equation between one explanatory variable and one dependent variable and you calculated that r=0.8. Which of the following statements (if any) is correct: A. The average value of the dependent variable changes by 0.8 when the explanatory variable increases by 1 unit B. The average value of the explanatory variable changes by 0.8 when the dependent variable increases by 1 unit C. The explanatory variable explains 64% of the variation in the dependent variable...

The benefit of a one-unit increase in an activity O A. is measured by what you must give up. O B. is called marginal cost. O c. is always greater than the opportunity cost of that activity. O D. is called "sunk benefit." O E. decreases as you do more of it. When a production possibilities frontier is bowed outward, as more of one good is produced, its opportunity cost O A. decreases. OB....
