Brenden Nash · Answer 1

1) 1 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Marginal cost is the total cost of making the product.

Here, the Total number of hour Matias need to move from grade B to grade A is:

Time spent to get grade A - Time spend to get grade B

= 2 hours - 1 hours = 1 hours

Thus, Matias 's marginal cost in terms of TV viewing to moving from a B to an A on the exam is 1 hour.
