A different marching band has 30 snare drums, but its are
trombone to snare drum ratio is the same as the first
marching band. How many trombones does it have?
Explain what these ratios all have in common: 8:5, 16:10,
24:15. Create a diagram to support your answer.
Mathematicians call these "equivalent ratios." Come up
with a new set of ratios that are equivalent to 6:21.
Explain in your own words the meaning of "equivalent
ratios."

1. an economy consists of three workers: larry, moe, and curly. each works 10 hours a day and can produce two services: mowing lawns and washing cars. in an hour, larry can either mow one lawn or wash one car; moe can either mow one lawn or wash two cars; and curly can either mow two lawns or wash one car. a. calculate how much of each service is produced under the following circumstances: a. all three spend all their time mowing lawns. b. all three spend all their time washing cars. c. all three spend half their time on each activity d. larry spends half of his time on each activity, while moe only washes cars and curly only mows lawns b. using your answers to part a, draw a production possibilities frontier and label points a, b, c, and d on your graph. explain why the production possibilities frontier has the shape it does. c. are any of the allocations calculated in part a inefficient? explain.
