Answer and Explanation:

The Heckscher-Ohlin economic model, also known as H-O theorem, presents the idea that trade relations between the two countries are based on the resource that each country has in abundance, that is, each country will exploit economically, the most abundant resource and establish trade relations with other countries, exporting it.

We can prove this theorem, by observing that countries that have favorable environmental conditions for agriculture, will establish their commercial relations based on the agricultural products that they can export. Among these countries, we can mention China and its strong export of rice and Brazil and its strong export of orange juice. On the other hand, countries that have as main resource the production of machines, will export these machines to establish their commercial relations, like Germany and a strong export of automobiles.

You need to figure out at which x-value does the graph has a tangent line slope of -1.remember, the derivative is the slope of the tangent line. so find the derivative function and set it to equal -1 to find the x-value that will have a tangent line slope of 0.differentiate with the chain rule. $\begin{aligned} f(x) & = (0.5)^{2x} \\ f'(x) & = 0.5^{2x} \cdot \ln(0.5) \cdot (2x)' \\ f'(x) & = 0.5^{2x} \cdot \ln(0.5) \cdot 2 \\ f'(x) & = 2\ln(0.5) \cdot 0.5^{2x} \end{aligned}$ set the derivative to equal -1 and solve for x. $\begin{aligned} -1 & = 2\ln(0.5) \cdot 0.5^{2x} \\ -\frac{1}{2} & = \ln(0.5) \cdot 0.5^{2x} \\ -\frac{1}{2\ln(0.5)} & = 0.5^{2x} \end{aligned}$ take log base 10 of both sides. also recall that $\log_c(m^n) = n \log_c m$ . $\begin{aligned} \log\left[ -\frac{1}{2\ln(0.5)}\right] & = \log\left[0.5^{2x}\right] \\ \log\left[ -\frac{1}{2\ln(0.5)}\right] & = 2x \log(0.5) \\ \dfrac{\log\left[ -\frac{1}{2\ln(0.5)}\right]}{2\log(0.5)} & = x \\ x & \approx 0.2356 \end{aligned}$ so the x-coord of the point of tangency is $x \approx 0.2356$ .the y-coordinate of this point of tangency can be calculated using the original function: $\begin{aligned} f(x) & = (0.5)^{2x} \\ f(0.2356) & = (0.5)^{2 \cdot 0.2356} \\ & \approx 0.7213 \end{aligned}$ using point-slope form, the equation of the tangent line is $y - 0.7213 = -1(x-0.2356)$ the x-intercept of this tangent line is when the graph is at y=0. $\begin{aligned} 0 - 0.7213 & = -1(x-0.2356)\\ - 0.7213 & = -(x-0.2356) \\ 0.7213 & = x-0.2356\\ x & = 0.9569 \end{aligned}$ this rounds off to $x & = 0.957$ .choice c.

answer: if though all maps are biased we study them to tell we have to go and use them to tell the direction we have to go but if you don't want to use a compass to find the way to go then the only option is to use the standard maps made by the european's
