1. The production possibilities curves above show all the possible combinations of helicopters and scooters that two towns, Millerville and Jamestown, can create using equal amounts of resources. 2. Prior to answering this question, develop a rubric for scoring this assessment. Read the question carefully and determine where you think the College Board would award a point. Include an explanation for each point you identify. List points for each section on a separate line. You might set this up as a table if that is easier. The maximum number of points awarded should be between 8 and 12.

A. Explain which country has the absolute advantage in the production of helicopters.

B. Using the concept of opportunity cost that you learned in this lesson, explain which country has the comparative advantage in the production of scooters. You may include a table for your explanation. (Hint: Is this an input or output question?)

C. If the two countries specialize and trade with each other, identify which country would import scooters. Explain.

D. Assume Millerville was producing 30 scooters and 10 helicopters before specialization. If Millerville wanted to maintain production of 30 scooters, would they benefit from trade with Jamestown if the terms of trade were set such that one scooter is traded for one helicopter?

steering wheels are always situated on the left side of the car.

always drive on the right side of the road.

white lines separate lanes of traffic traveling the same direction.

hashed or broken lines means you may change lanes when it is safe.

solid white lines mean stay in your lane.

yellow lines separate traffic moving in opposing directions.

hashed or broken yellow lines mean you can carefully pass, paying attention to oncoming traffic.

never cross a solid yellow line (or double yellow line).

when turning left at an intersection, pass in front of any cars that are turning left from the opposing direction (do not try to pass behind them).

use the left lane to pass other cars traveling your direction.

do not pass in the right lane unless absolutely necessary.

if you are driving in the far left hand lane and someone would like to pass you, move over to the right lane when it is safe to do so and allow them to pass.

you must always yield to pedestrians.

come to a complete stop whenever you see pedestrians trying to cross the street.

never pass a school bus if it has flashing red lights. wait until the lights have stopped.

be aware of bicyclists. often they share the road with cars and are supposed to also follow general traffic laws.

be particularly careful about driving in cities with bike lanes -- always check before turning that a bike is not coming.

it is mandatory to pull over or stop at an intersection to allow an emergency vehicle to pass you if you see one traveling with lights flashing and/or a siren running.

do not overuse your car horn. horns are used almost exclusively for emergency situations or for when you feel unsafe.

explanation:

being born in poverty would limit the people's chances, opportunities and benefits.

this happen because of several things, such as:

- poor people tend to gain less access to good education and nutrition. this mean that their chance to obtain high paying jobs would also be limited.

- poor people tend to socialize with other poor people while the rich tend to socialize with other rich people. this means that simply throguh their social circle, rich people would have more business opportunities compared to the poor people.

- rich people tend to have more capital in their disposal. this would benefit them in business since it is far easier for them to fund their business operation compared to poor people.
