{
if (y==0)
return x;
else
return peanoplus(++x, --y);
}
i just can't understand how to find the big(O) of this function.

4 AnswersLaw & Ethics9 years agoMicro Econ practice multiple choice questions?
1. Which of the following statements are always true for our standard shaped costs?
I) If diminishing returns has set in, then AVC is increasing
II) If ATC is increasing, then AVC is increasing.
III) If AVC is constant, then MC = AVC
-->>> I know III is right, I think I and II might be right also, but not so sure.
2. Which of the following must be true about a market with standard shaped supply and demand curves where the demand for the good has increased?
I. There will be a shortage of the good at the original equilibrium price
II. The consumers of this good have more income
III. The new equilibrium price is higher
-->>>> Im thinking I is true for sure, III is also true, but clueless about II
3/ Just a quick question. If supply of labor decreases, will it affect the labor productivity?
Any help will be appreciated

1 AnswerEconomics9 years agostuck on calculus (series) problem?
OK so I was given the function f(x) = -1 + Sum(2 to infinity) ((k-1)*x^k) / k!
a/ Find f'(x).
I got f'(x) = sum(2 to infinity) ( x^(k-1) / (k-2)! )
b/ Determine the function which the power series f'(x) represent.
I never done a problem like this so Im clueless, please help me figure this out.

1 AnswerEconomics10 years agostuck on Physics question?
I am kinda stuck on this question. Any help will be appreciated
In the rough approximation that the density
of the Earth is uniform throughout its inte-
rior, the gravitational field strength (force per
unit mass) inside the Earth at a distance r
from the center is g r/R, where R is the ra-
dius of the Earth. (In actual fact, the outer
layers of rock have lower density than the in-
ner core of molten iron.) Using the uniform-
density approximation, calculate the amount
of energy required to move a mass m from the
center of the Earth to the surface.
A/ mgR
B/ mgR/4
C/ 2mgR
D/mgR/2
E/ 4mgR

2 AnswersLaw & Ethics10 years agoStuck on physics problem?
I'm doing my physics hw and got stuck on this problem.
You’re driving a vehicle of mass 1250 kg and
you need to make a turn on a flat road. The
radius of curvature of the turn is 75 m. The
coefficients of static and kinetic friction are
both 0.28.
Which of the following statements are true
about this situation? List all that apply,
A. The net force is nonzero and points away
from the center of the kissing circle.
B. The rate of change of the momentum is
nonzero and points away from the center
of the kissing circle.
C. The rate of change of the momentum is nonzero and points toward the center of
the kissing circle.
D. The momentum points toward the center
of the kissing circle.
E. The centrifugal force balances the force
of the road, so the net force is zero.
F. The net force is nonzero and points to-
ward the center of the kissing circle.
ANY help will be appreciated.
