Your Christmas ski vacation was great, but it unfortunately ran a bit over budget. All is not lost: You just received an offer in the mail to transfer your $12,000 balance from your current credit card, which charges an annual rate of 19.8 percent, to a new credit card charging a rate of 10.4 percent. How much faster could you pay the loan off by making your planned monthly payments of $225 with the new card? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answer to 2 decimal places. (e. g., 32.16))

Suppose life expectancy in years (l) is a function of two inputs, health expenditures (h) and nutrition expenditures (n) in hundreds of dollars per year. the production function is upper l equals ch superscript 0.40 baseline upper n superscript 0.60l=ch0.40n0.60. beginning with c = 1, a health input of $400400 per year (hequals=44) and a nutrition input of $400400 per year (nequals=44), show that the marginal product of health expenditures and the marginal product of nutrition expenditures are both decreasing. the marginal product of health expenditures when h goes from 44 to 55 is nothing, and the marginal product of health when h goes from 66 to 77 is nothing. (round your answers to three decimal places.)
