9. If a large nation experiences growth of its abundant input, other things held constant, one would expect that in the post-growth trade equilibrium, a. Its welfare increases not only because of outward shift in the PPF but also because of the more favourable terms of trade. b. Its welfare decreases because of the adverse effects on its terms of trade as well as due to the excess supply of its export good. c. Its welfare increases because of the growth of the input but decreases because of the adverse terms of trade, with the overall effect being uncertain. d. Its welfare will increase.

Consider a developed country, Country A. Assume that the trade volume (exports + imports) with respect to its economic development level can be described by the following function: T(D)=2D^2+5D+9 Where: T(D) represents the trade volume in billions of dollars. D is the level of development, measured by some index (e.g., Human Development Index) where 0≤D≤10. Calculate the derivative of T(D) with respect to D. Interpret result in terms of the rate of change of trade volume with respect to development. At what level of development D does the country experience the highest rate of change in trade volume? If the standard deviation in the development index scores of developed countries is 1.2, how would this affect interpretation of trade patterns among developed countries? Note: For the purposes of this question, assume that the relationship is purely mathematical and doesn't account for other real-world factors that might influence trade volume.

Z and S.A are trading partners. Both produce metal ores (including lithium) and delivery trucks. Now suppose that if Zimbabwe uses all of its resources, it can produce 50,000 tons of metal ores or 100,000 delivery trucks (trading off at a constant rate). Suppose that if South Africa uses all of its resources, it can produce 20,000 tons of metal ores or 80,000 delivery trucks (trading off at a constant rate). What is the direction of the trade (who exports what to whom)? Be sure to give the opportunity costs of production of both goods for both countries.
