3) all points on the production possibilities curve represent a combination of goods that:
a- are equally preferred.
b- can only by produced if there is no unemployment
c- both a and b

1 is "The first is ‘scarcity’ – This assumption tells us that resources are limited yet wants are unlimited therefore we have to make choices. Which wants are we to satisfy with our limited resources?

The second assumption is that of living standards, which refers to the amount of goods and services available per person. Living standards are limited by a country's ability to produce. Potential national output depends on the country's resources, technology and productivity. "

2 is E
3 is A
