An isoquant slopes
A. Downward to the left
B. Downward to the right
C. Upward to the right
D. Upward to the left
Answer: Option B
Solution(By Examveda Team)
An isoquant slopes downward to the right. This implies that the Isoquant is a negatively sloped curve. This is because when the quantify of factor K (capital) is increased, the quantity of L (labor) must be reduced so as to keep the same level of output.The capital that is consumed by an economy or a firm in the production process is known as

C. If two demand curves are linear and parallel to each other, then, at a particular price, the coefficient of elasticity would be different on different demand curves.
D. The price elasticity of demand is expressed in terms of relaive not absolute changes in Price and Quantity demanded.
